Georgan City, Ten Years Ago

"No, don’t—"

"Oh hush love, trust me," Juni said, placing a dainty finger on her boyfriend’s lips. "I can do this."

At this time, a certain couple was staring at each other at their table in a high-end restaurant, whispering. It was their anniversary, and the man had reserved a table weeks prior.

From other people’s perspective, they were just being sweet, but if they looked closer, they’d see that the man’s eyebrows were furrowed, uncomfortable, at whatever the woman was telling him.

After a while, the woman stood up, and the man could only watch in worry as she approached the target.

Gill’s hands formed a fist under the table, before settling very close to the gun he always had in his waist. He was prepared to shoot if needed, consequence be damned.

It wasn’t supposed to be like this. They were having a date—increasingly rare now that he had begun to get deployed in far away places—but he coincidentally saw someone from a wanted notice not long ago.

This wanted notice wasn’t public because the authorities worried he would flee too far to be found.

But here they were, eating at the same restaurant.

Was he lucky or unlucky?

Now his girlfriend was even approaching the criminal and he couldn’t stop her unless they made a scene!

He had told her about the dangerous man in their midst. He was trying to warn her and tell her to be careful. She lightly gasped when he told her, and for a moment he thought she was scared.

"You gave me a tracking device before," she had said. "We can use this."

She had always loved spy movies since they were kids. Years later, after entering the industry, she would also make a ton of them.

So when Gill found he could procure a few gadgets in his position—though they were mostly outdated models they could take home—he gifted her a few.

To think she always brought them with her, and it still helped him out…

When she came back to him a few minutes later, her beautiful face was adorned with a smug smile.

She then handed him the tracker and smirked. "You’re welcome."
