Chapter 7: Unexpected Encounter

YN was heading out to meet Alex he told her to meet him because he want to tell her something important, her phone still connected to Lisa(who love to eat ramen but dont know how to cook), who was asking for ramen-making tips. "YN, how much water do I need to add?" Lisa asked, her voice bubbly and enthusiastic.

"Just enough to cover the noodles, Lisa," YN replied, navigating through the crowded street. "And don't forget to add the seasoning packet—"

Suddenly, YN collided with a chest, and a muscular arm wrapped around her waist, preventing her from falling , time was stopped for a moment. Apologetic, YN looked up to meet the eyes of the stranger, recognizing them in an instant despite the mask covering his face. It was Jungkook.

"I'm so sorry!" YN exclaimed, her cheeks flushing red.

Jungkook's eyes crinkled at the corners as he smiled. "It's okay, be careful miss yn ," he said, his deep voice sending a shiver down YN's spine.then again he said yn was still in is arms

"How long do you want to stay like this because I don't have a problem with it but it's not fair I think at least not here? What do you think"

YN nodded hastily and pulled away, her heart racing. "Sorry, I'm in a hurry!" she called out, quickly disappearing into the crowd.

Lisa's voice came through the phone, concerned. "YN, what happened? Are you okay?"

YN took a deep breath, composing herself. "Yeah, I'm fine, Lisa. Just bumped into someone from junglebook. I'll talk to you later, okay?"

 Lisa laughed and said okay. YN hung up the phone, her mind reeling from the unexpected encounter. She quickened her pace, eager to meet Alex and discuss their next move.

As she turned a corner, she spotted Alex waiting for her outside a small restaurant. "Hey, what's wrong?" he asked, noticing her flustered expression.

"Nothing, umm, why did you call me here?" YN asked, sitting on the chair Alex pulled out for her.

"YN, remember? That flowers with a card and note signed '~j'?" Alex asked, his eyes serious.

YN nodded, her curiosity piqued. "Yes, what about it?"

"I trting to find who's behind it from last month, and I think I know who's sending them," Alex said, his voice low.

YN's eyes narrowed. "Who is it?"

"Jackson Wang, also known as Jackson and for you ~j. He works with me, and I think he's the one sending you flowers," Alex revealed.

YN's expression turned skeptical. "How did you find out, Alex? I've been trying to find him, but I can't, and you did it in just a few days?and how did you know him"

Alex hesitated before speaking. "YN, you're my old best friend, and I trust you. That's why I'm telling you this but please let me finish my point first." He was hesitant to say it but said it.

 "Actually, I work under the CIA as an...agent..but I serve someone else who works for justice. They have their own rules, and maybe their style is wrong, they made their own rules, but they help those in need—"

YN burst into laughter, her eyes shining with amusement. "Oh, Alex, you're such a freaking joke!Y..Yo You, a CIA agent? Serving someone who works for justice but has their own rules? That sounds like a bad action movie plot!"

Alex's face turned bright red as he tried to shush her. "YN, please, it's not a joke. I'm serious."

YN wiped tears from her eyes, still chuckling. "Oh, Alex, you're killing me!"

Alex's expression turned stern. "YN, listen to me. This is serious. I know it's hard to believe, but I've been working undercover for years. My handler is someone who—"

YN interrupted, still giggling. "Oh, handler? You mean like a spy handler? Alex, you're killing me!" Alex sighed, his face frustrated. "YN, stop. This isn't funny. My handler is someone who has their own way of doing things, but they're effective. And I trust them, and they also help me to find jackson."

who is it,Mr agent? Who's this mysterious handler of yours?"

(Yn's blood boiled with betrayal as she grappled with the realization that his friend had been turned against the CIA. Yet, instead of succumbing to anger, Yn chose a different tactic. With disarming sweetness, she delicately probed,she is well trained to hid her emotions)

However, he remained tight-lipped, refusing to divulge the information. Alex's eyes locked onto hers. "I can't tell you his name, but I know, YN trust me, there's more to the story than you think i—"

Just then, a figure appeared in the doorway of the restaurant , their eyes fixed on YN. Alex's head whipped around, his expression tense.

"YN, we need to go. Now."

The figure started walking towards them, their pace slow and deliberate. YN was confused

"Alex, what's going on?" she whispered, her eyes fixed on mans arround them.

Alex's face was grim. "I think we're in trouble, YN. Big trouble."
