Chereads / A Song of the Night / Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Changmin had become a bodyguard at Dong's household, the one who also own the casino. He was to especially to look after Spring as of now.

The morning had come. Spring dressed herself to go to work.

Spring finally came out of the mansion. She saw her new bodyguard waiting for her outside in front of her car. It made her very nervous. She hadn't have any bodyguard before and drive by herself so long especially to work.

As soon as the young man saw her, he greeted her and opened the car door for her.

"Good morning, come Miss!"

A lifeless politeness! Spring thought. Somehow she still felt embraced about yesterday.

Spring felt somehow strange to sit at the back of the car. It was all silent drive. She didn't get to talk with this new bodyguard at all on the way. She just picked out mobile phone from her back and begin to check up updates from the sites online.

They finally reached to the hospital. Spring politely said "thank you" and got out from the car.

Changmin could see Spring quick walked up to hospital building and met up with her two friends: a man and a woman who were wearing doctor white long coat. All three went inside into hotel.

Changmin began to drive to get out but suddenly saw a phone laying on the sofa of the back of the car.

******

Spring put on her white coat and someone knock on her down door. It was her Changmin then.

"Sorry but you have left your, Miss!". He hand her the phone and she took it.

Just then another man came into the room. It was Spring's friend Changmin had seen before.

"Ryeowook!" Spring called out.

Ryeowook, a man in white long coat with glasses looked at both Changmin and Spring as if asking "who is this guy in black suit!"

Spring seemed to know his question look.

"This is Mr Lee Yoon, our my family bodyguard."

The two men greeted.

After that Spring asked,"By the way what's up?"

"Hmm our head doctor has call out for a meeting!"

Ryeowook replied.

"Oh I m coming..see you Mr Yoon!" and then Ryeowook and Spring get out of the room leaving Changmin alone. He unintentionally look around her working room. On her working desk he could two photo stands apart from doctor's stuff and some other small books and broshure. One photo showed when Spring seemed to be about five or six years old. Her father was holding up to his arms and her mother was beside them. Changmin looked at the picture carefully. He thought he had known this young sight of Mr Dong a long time ago. He did not remembered though. He then put that thought aside and get out from there.

*****

At the evening, Changmin came to take Spring back home.

Ryeowook looked at the car that was driving away.

"Hey!! why are you looking like that?", the lady beside him said. "Let's go home!"

"I am wondering why Spring suddenly have a driver!"

"Maybe, her Dad thought she should have one!"

"I don't like him very much somehow..look secretive somehow!"

"Secretive?? hmm No...he looks normal...handsome too!"

Ryeowook was not happy to hear that.

"Yuri!" He called out.

The lady laughed.

"Hmm...I see you don't like a lot guys that get to near Spring. Why? Jealous? If you love Spring, just go tell her straight!"

Ryeowook was all red now.

"No! No! It's not like that! I am just worry. We are friends! Maybe I think too much!"

"Let's go home", Yuri said.

*******

It was Sunday morning. It was Spring day off. She woke up with enthusiasm. She wanted to go somewhere which was not her home and hospital.

She dressed herself very causally with simple T Shirt and long jeans.

She went out from her room and went straight to the household door. Mr Dong was sitting on sofa in living room and saw her came by.

Spring felt a little awkward.

"Going out?", her father asked.

"Yes!"

"Take Yoon too!"

"But I want to go alone!"

However, her father look at her as he saying "you must do!".

"Ok!", she said uneasily.

******

Changmin drove her to one charity organization building.

Spring made donations most to education and environment. People there seemed surprise that Spring had come with a bodyguard which she never had before.

The lady at the administration deck said.

"Thank you very much again Miss! I hope Ms Grace is doing well too! "

"Yes she is...I will bring her next time too. ...!"

Changmin was standing still beside her. She was so cheerful that she was near to forget she came with him.

She looked her at his so stiff face.

She smiled.

"Let's go to another place!"

Spring made Changmin sat on City Train that day, a train that was going around the city.

"We have our own car, why we need to use the train!"

"It's not the same. It really relaxing to go around the world riding train sometimes because it kept away it's the loud nature of the city and see some nature with trees around the rail." She said cheerfully as she took out her camera and took the pictures through the glass window. Changmin relaxed himself and examine the outside city seeing through the glass window, for this moment he wanted to forget his troubles and mission. Mr Dong's daughter seemed to a decent person. She had helped him before. It's good that she did not ask anything yet about it.

They then arrived to the city market place. Spring took pictures of whereabouts of the city. Seeing variety of goods around made her happy. She would have preferred to have come alone. But a bodyguard seemed not bad too. Maybe this was the fate she had to accept.

As they went around Changmin felt like someone was following them. He

was suspicious but did not tell anything to Spring.

Spring went to one coffee shop stand to buy some drinks. Just the suspicious man came toward Spring. One of his hands was behind his back. Before he was near to touch her, Changmin just dragged him and punched him.

"What are you doing?"

"Well what are you doing to her!"

"I am just going to give her back the bracelet that slip off near the market!"

Spring right now was shocked and trying to get herself back to sense.

"Ohh I am very sorry for everything. Are you ok!"

"I am ok Miss!"

The man quickly gave back her bracelet and went away shaking his head.

"I am slipping these days. .." Spring murmured to herself.

Changmin was even more still now and did not even dare to face her. He felt a bit embarrassed.

She suddenly laughed out.

"Hehe..Mister...life is not always bad like that not everyone is suspicious. Take it easy some times!"

Then she handed him a cold lemon tea cup.

"For you. Thank you for driving for me these days...I saw you drinking it the other even after picking me up at hospital. So I thought you like it!"

"Thank you"

Changmin meant it and take the drink from her.

But he was still suspicious of the man.

They walked along together for sometimes.

Spring finally wanted to go back home.

"It's been quite a day!"
