"What-woah! Woah! Woah!" Vernon exclaimed when she started unbuttoning her dress shirt but thankfully stopped after unbuttoning two. "Has she finally lost it?" Vernon asked watching her. She posed few more times before walking straight to the girl's table.

"Hello ladies." She greeted leaning on their tables. The girls looked up at her annoyed. "May I see your cell phones please?" She smiled.

"Mwo?"

"I asked, 'may I see your cell phones?'" She repeated quite loudly this time. "I am speaking in Korean, am I not?" She asked particularly to no one.

"Why?" One of the girls rudely asked.

"Why?" She repeated tilting her head to side. "You are asking why?" She clicked her tongue. "You see ladies, I saw you clicking pictures. What? What's that expression?" She asked when the rude girl rolled her eyes.

"Drunkard sprouting nonsense." The girl snorted. "Miss, you should stop before you get kicked out of here." The girl warned making her laugh.

"What a cutie!" She laughed before leaning down closer to her. "You see, the restaurant is small but my lady installed a surveillance camera right...there." She said pointing at the corner of the wall. True to her words the camera was right there staring at them. "Perfect angle, don't you think? Want me to go and...or you..." She trailed off looking at the mobile phone the girl was clutching her hands.

The girl cursed and reluctantly handed her phone making her smirk. "Thank you for the cooperation." She smiled going through the photos that were captured. "You have a talent for photography." She complimented. "Hmm...you know if you wanted a picture of me, you could've asked." There was clear disbelief on the girl's face hearing that. "Oh, you got those guys with me in frame too. This can be considered as a crime if you post these pictures without the person's consent." The girls looked at each other in panic. "You can be jailed and fined with three million won." She said loud and clear, her eyes moving to the man in corner, who look away when their eyes met.

"Mwo?!" One of the girls almost jumped up from the table.

"Yes." She smiled deleting one last photo and handing back the phone. "How old are you girls? College?" One of the girls nodded earning a smack from another one. She smiled and patted her head. "You all should study well instead of doing this, hmm?" She said. "Study well and earn well, be rich then you can do anything you want."

"Stop your rubbish." A voice echoed through woman's ear piece making her smile almost drop. "And what three million won!? What load of crap!" He laughed. She wanted to cursed back for his unwanted commentary but she controlled her expression shooting a glare at her partner.

"You girls take my advice. Study well." She smiled one last time at girls and turned around noticing her was subject leaving. She quickly signaled her partner to go after him.

"Roger that." Her partner replied before following their subject out. She fixed her expression, putting on the act again, she walked back to her table.

"Young girls these days." She said with a chuckle. "Must be first time seeing a pretty foreigner like me so couldn't help clicking pictures." She smiled seating back on her stool. Chan choked on his laughter. "Wae? Why are you laughing?" She asked clearly offended.

"Ani. Don't get me wrong. But they were definitely not clicking your pictures." He laughed mumbling out the last part because he had noticed them quite long ago. He didn't mind them since they were just clicking pictures and not nearing them.

"You." She smacked Vernon's arm before dramatically flipping her hair to one side and delicately looking at him. "Na yeppeo? (Am I pretty?)" She asked.

Vernon blinked few times. "Umm...eo, very pretty." He replied still in frozen state.

"See?" She turned towards Chan who covered his mouth hiding his laughter and nodded his head. "You remind me of my partner." She said narrowing her eyes at Chan.

"Partner? As in the one you find annoying?" Chan asked.

"Ah, my beer's gone." She whined at her empty bottle before proceeding to check her watch. "And it's getting late." She muttered and got up; Chan's mouth fell open at her ignorance as the other two snickered from behind. "It was nice meeting you lads." She saluted and stumbled towards the counter. "Sexy lady..." She sang pulling out some bills from her wallet and placing it on counter. "Your fees and-" she leaned over the counter and placed a kiss on ahjumma's cheek. "-bonus." She grinned leaned back.

"This girl." Ahjumma said shaking her head. "Leaving?" Ahjumma asked earning a nod from her. "Will you be okay?"

"Yes. Don't worry." She replied starting to make her way out.

"Want me to call a cab for you?!"

"Why don't you just let me sleep over tonight?" She turned around and winked.

"Aish. Just go. Kah!" Ahjumma flicked her hand. She giggled and started making her way out when she realized something was missing. Turning around, she walked back to the trio's table.

"Mwo? Why is she coming back?" Chan said as walked back to their table. Smiling she pointed at Vernon's lap. "I forgot my jacket." Vernon' made 'oh' face.

"Here." He said handing it to her. She thanked him and left. "Get home safe!" Chan shouted to which she just waved her hand without looking back. "What a woman." He laughed.

"Yes. Definitely made our night." Mingyu laughed shaking his head.

"Nice show you put up there." Her partner spoke hearing her saying her good byes. "I didn't know you could act." He said sarcastically while emptying the contents from the bags.

"Thank you. Do you think I could make a debut against Park Seo Joon?" Her partner snorted at that.

"With face like that? Yeah sure." He laughed.

"Fuck off. I can definitely beat your ass, Gwok Hyun-Ki." She cursed making him laugh out loud.

"Exactly." He laughed. "You could've told me that you know the owner of the restaurant."

"And what difference it would've made?" She replied making him rolling his eyes. Of course, it's useless talking with someone like her who's head is far up her ass.

"This boy, I can't believe." He smiled going through the stuff.

"What did you get?"

"He was shit scared and passed out when I caught him. I got the camera and wow. This boy came prepared but too bad he passed out." He said.

"What else did you find? His cellphone? Did you check it?" She questioned.

"I did. Found nothing." He replied.

"Bummer."

"Yes, bummer." He repeated. "Why would an amateur have all this with him?"

"For fuck's sake stop acting a protagonist from some stupid crime drama. Why would he have this? Why would he do this and that!" She said with a loud sign at the end. "You know what, you take care of boy; I am heading home." She said. "Wha-" She cut him off. "I am too tired."

"Tired! How can you be tired after enjoying whole day sitting around in aircon room and then enjoying drinks while I had to run around like dog doing the dirty work?!" He exasperated shouting her ear off.

"Dirty work? Didn't you just see me whole heartedly doing my duty? If it weren't for me, you would've totally dropped dead in there, dragging my ass with you." She retorted back arrogantly. "Get your big head out of your ass."

"Wahh, look at her talking about big head..." Gwok Hyun-ki laughed. "What am I supposed to do with this kid?" He asked looking at the unconscious boy in the passenger's seat.

"You are asking me that?" Her voice held disbelief. "You know this is exactly way I call you an amateur. Wake up the damn boy and get everything out of him if he doesn't then beat the shit-"

"Okay wait a second; let me remind you. You are working for an entertainment company. You are supposed to protect the artist and their image not be a gangster and bea-"

"Ye, ye, Mr. Know it all." She cut him off again. "Like I give a fuck. I just wanted a promotion not this child's play!"

"Seriously you are-"

"I am leaving the car to you. I'll catch a cab. Have a tough night. Annyeong!" She sang before her voice was cut off.

"Yah- yah! Yah!" Gwok Hyun-ki screamed but she had disconnected the communicator. "God damn it!" He cursed punching the head rest in front of him. "Waee..." He whined before glancing at the unconscious boy. Always left to clean up on his own. "Why is it just two of us from the team?" He cried.
