Mansion Kang, Los Angeles.
Sunny has taken her medicine and gone back to sleep, Sok-ji is quite calm to see that his fiancé can calm down and go back to rest. For him, there are indeed some things that are impossible and strange.
Apparently, Sunny PTSD makes her faint and fall asleep as soon as she drinks wine. But, Sok-ji knows Sunny is pretty a drinker, and something is not right.
But, aside from that thing, now he has to take care of her, the problem with alcohol can wait, but the PTSD is real. He covers her body with a blanket.
He's been gone for too long, it's time to get back to work.
A cupboard was open, there was a suitcase that was still neatly closed. Sok-ji tries to push but the suitcase feels heavy.
He closed the cupboard again and left the room, Danny was still in front of the door, Sok-ji saw Danny as if he wasn't tired, his eyes were still bright, his breathing was still even and his body was still straight. Ex-military is different.
"You haven't rested yet?" Sok-ji asked.
"I can rest later, besides, you are my responsibility now."
"I'm your responsibility? Didn't you say that you were Sunny's Bodyguard and Doctor?"
"Sunny, once told me there would come a time when I would meet the person she's protecting, and when that came, I would have to look after him."
"And you think she meant me?"
"Indeed, if not you, who else? I knew it was you when I first saw you, believe me, everyone here looked down on you at first, but after what happened earlier, everyone here, even Jack, they can't complain about you anymore."
"Is that so? I may be annoyed at being underestimated, but I didn't come here to get recognition. I only came because I missed her."
"You missed her enough that you told the receptionist to tell Sunny you destroyed his Aston Martin?"
"How do you know?"
"Fox told me, he said he saw that person, the person that Sunny meant."
"Yeah, I wonder if she still remembers that."
"Sunny has a sharp memory so she absolutely still remembers that. Where are you going? Sunny isn't awake yet, right?"
"She woke up earlier, she also ate and took medicine, she is sleeping again now. I have to work, I've been gone too long."
They both stopped in front of the study room, but Danny was silent and stood beside the entrance, Sok-ji who had entered, and then came out again. "Come in, if you want to look after me, just inside, sit, and at least rest your feet."
"You know that's not how you look after people."
"Assume you're watching me, not guarding, so it makes more sense if you're in the room."
Danny nodded his head and complied with what Sok-ji ordered. For him now, everything Sok-ji said was an order.
Sok-ji opened the secure email created by Lay, he read several emails that had been sent by Jang Lay. like what happened in K4 today and how Jae-young was starting to get anxious.
Likewise, Prosecutor Lee finally went to K4 after Lay chose to keep Seon Mi safe in their new secret mansion.
After Keil bombarded their old mansion, Lay had to give up the mansion and look for a new one. Selling it takes time but on the other hand, they need a new safe house.
Moreover, Sunny destroyed her own house. That is something that cannot be avoided. They had to renovate the house, or just let it go.
Sok-ji was lost in his reading but suddenly Danny woke up from his seat and looked at Sok-ji.
"What's wrong? Don't look at me like that."
"Walter, he's back."
Sok-ji closed his eyes for a moment, it felt like it had only been a few hours before everything was over but somehow crazy things kept happening. Whether he has left the mansion or not, Sok-ji is already tired, the time difference and flight are quite long, and he hasn't even had a proper rest.
She didn't have time to dash now, but Walter didn't seem to let her rest for a moment.
"What should I do?" Danny asked.
"Let's go," said Sok-ji.
"Where are we going exactly?"
"Do we know where he is now?"
"Sunny's room."
Sok-ji immediately stood up and left the room. And once he opens Sunny's room which is not that far away. Walter is lifting her body out of bed. As if to take her out of the Mansion.
He was angry, he was annoyed, and he wanted to kill the person in front of him, for daring to take her away even when she was unconscious. There were many things he wanted to do to Walter right now, but he couldn't do it.
"Dan, take her," that was all he could say, because otherwise he would have grabbed the gun on Danny's back and shot Walter.
"Walt, I'm sorry, but she's unconscious now, this is more like you kidnap her," said Danny then took Sunny from Walter's arms and returned her sleeping body to the bed.
Sok-ji immediately grabbed and pushed Walter against the wall.
Braak~!
The sound was quite loud, Danny could tell from the sound, that it must be quite painful. The house has never been renovated and still uses the original walls, so the body collides with brick and cement, if nothing is broken, it's already a miracle.
Walter pouted silently, before becoming the CIA he was a special agent at the FBI, and his physical strength was always trained, he was even a basketball and football athlete during school, he knew that the person who slammed him now had not exerted any strength.
Walter becomes skeptical when he finds out that Sok-ji is an actor, but he is skilled at using a sniper and his accuracy rate is almost 85%, he is not a member of the military but his strength and stamina.
This is no joke. This guy was hiding something.
At least that's what he thought.
"The hell."
"Where do you want to take her?"
"I need to talk to her, you don't know who I am and you don't know what I will tell her. So back off."
"You want me to back off? Maybe you need to back off!"
"Hei! I have known her, almost her entire life, and you just show up like a year ago, you tell me like you just know her more than I do?"
"Fine, you know her almost your and her life, but admit it you separate for almost 12 years, you never know what life she's been doing all this time."
"Sorry boy, but I always keep my eyes on her."
"Oh really, you have been a special agent for the FBI and now a CIA Agent, you think you genuinely know her?"
"I know her more than you know her," said Walter.
"Owh oke guys, this conversation is not going anywhere," said Zax while checking Sunny.
"You know Dan, it's right this is not going anywhere.."
Kreek!!
Sok-ji cocks his gun, and Walter is silent, he doesn't understand why Sok-ji seems to feel threatened by him even though he should be the one who feels threatened by the presence of another man in Sunny's life.
Walter tries to take the weapon but it turns out that Sok-ji can fight and defend the weapon even though he has to accept that he is pushed against the wall now.
"Cut the shit now, who are you? Is there something about you that Sunny doesn't know about?"
"Just an actor and Sunny's fiance."
"I don't buy that shit, just an actor, even Sunny said South Korea has mandatory military enlistment, I don't buy it, how long did you receive the training? Did Sunny know?"
"My training? Why'd you know about that? Did I've to tell you?"
"Look, you don't have to say it, but I can see it and you can say it out loud, You're her fiance or her boyfriend, I don't care."
Sok-ji raised his hands, a sign of surrender, he took out the magazine from his gun and put the gun on the table.
"Fine, I don't care if you trust me or not. Let me show you something. You said, you've known her for almost her entire life, but do you know she's suffering now?"
"Beside Jacob, Erlan dan Kenric, only her shoulder. She still has to finish the 6-month physical training."
Sok-ji smiled sadly, he always flattered himself on knowing about Sunny for years but he didn't know this.
"You have been by her side for the last 6 months and you don't know anything? Dann, give me that."
"Joe!"
"Give me that."
Danny throws a small bottle, and Sok-ji catches it and holds it. "Do you know that before this we had a conversation? I said to her that, this is your relationship, it's not my business and I'm not part of this. But when I talk to you, I don't like you."
"What do you mean? What is she telling you and what is that?"
"This is her antidepressant. She took this after the operation, she's been dealing with PTSD this whole time, and you didn't notice about this?"
"Zax, is this true?" Walter couldn't believe what he heard. He stared at the yellow bottle but he still didn't believe it.
"I don't know the whole story, she was with Jin and Hans at that time, but she is dealing with PTSD. this new life she doesn't know how to control, and she is afraid."
"If you told me I don't know anything about her, fine, maybe I'm not, but do you know her that much? Did you know her more than I know or is she just hiding like she always does?"
Danny looked at the two people and when he looked at Sounny lying on the bed he could see that Soo-hee seemed to be listening to what was happening beside him.
"She doesn't like people who suffer from PTSD. I didn't even notice."
"I don't blame you. She always shows us the great things about her, something that she wants us to see. And if you are her best friend you must have noticed that."
"I love her…"
He was silent for a long time, almost 2 minutes, and he finally closed his eyes.
"Dan let's go, we're going."
"Joe, are you sure?" Danny asked.
Sok-ji opens the table drawer next to Soo-hee's bed and then takes her earpiece box. He probably knew this might happen but he didn't realize it would feel so different when he heard it in person.
"I'm going, if you want to be here it's up to you. Let's go, Dan."
"Leave that device," said Walter, because he knew it was something Sunny always carried everywhere.
"I can't, this is Special Team property, and I want her to get some sleep that she hasn't had for the past 6 months."
Sok-ji came out of the room. Danny followed him from behind and he knew the man's condition was not fine. He once almost died because of a slander about him, and this time, he heard another man say that he loved his fiancee.
"Joe, are you ok?" Danny asked.
"Let's go do some runs."
"Are you sure? With your emotional."
"Are you afraid I'll hurt myself?"
"Well, I know what happened, one year ago."
"I'm okay, it's fine."
