There are lots of witnesses. "Do you believe me now, detective?" Jungkook asked, & the detective sighed.
"You have a good point. But i'll study more about it. Thank you, Captain." They cleaned the crime scene and still took the suspect since he still needs to be investigated.
"Woah!" Tae smacked Jungkook's arms in amazement. "You can be a detective too! That was awesome!" Jungkook just shook his head.
"How did you know I saw it?" He asked.
"You're very obvious. You we're following me. When I got in my office I saw you behind the walls."
Tae's mouth flung open, he doesn't know what to say. Is he really a bad spy?
"I won't ask why you're following me cuz I know you'll just deny it." Jungkook said & left.
But Tae couldn't control his smile.
"Does that mean he's watching me? He's really keeping an eye on me."
*Tae's Thought*
("he looks really cool. and smart. and cool. and smart. and cool. and smart."
"no seriously he looks cool and hot while he's explaining the case"
"ok i should calm my shit"
"but his senses are really sharp, how did he see the thing in the handkerchief?"
Yes he solved the case, but why did the victim do that? Its really smart of him jump with his back first so I'm guessing that someone ordered him to do that"
"god there are so many questions in my head")

{OCTOBER 20. 1894
DEAR DIARY.
WELL, YOU KNOW I THINK I HAVE A CRUSH ON HIM.
I MEAN WHO WOULDN'T LIKE IF HE STILL LIVES IN MY ERA I'M SURE MANY STRAIGHTS WOULD QUESTION THEIR SEXUALITIES.
AWHILE AGO, I CAN'T HELP BUT TO SMILE. THE CASE REALLY SEEMED INTRIGUING AND THE MASTERMIND IS SURELY DANGEROUS AND POWERFUL TOO I KNOW HE HAD THOUGHT OF THAT I KNOW THAT HE KNEW, RIGHT WHEN HE MEDDLED IN THE CASE THAT HIS LIFE IS ALREADY IN DANGER, I MEAN, HE'S A SOLDIER SO HIS LIFE IS AUTOMATICALLY IN DANGER NOW, I CAN FEEL THAT HE'S EVEN MORE IN DEEP DANGER.
BUT INSTEAD OF THINKING FOR HIS SAFETY, HE TRIED TO SAVE THE TRAINEE WHOM I ALSO BELIEVE IS INNOCENT.
I DON'T KNOW BUT I'M EVEN WORRIED NOW TWO MONTHS FROM NOW WILL BE HIS DEATH, AND IT REALLY PAINS MY HEART KNOWING THAT I'LL WITNESS IT.
WHY IS ONLY MY MISSION FINDING OUT WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM?WHY CAN I NOT CHANGE THE HISTORY? WHY AMI FORBIDDEN TO SAVE HIM?
I WANTED TO SAVE HIM.
WE'RE NOT THAT CLOSE, MAYBE NOT YET. BUT I'VE NEVER SEEN A PERSON THIS DEDICATED AND SINCERE TOWARDS HIS PEOPLE AND COUNTRY.
WHY CAN'T WE HAVE A CAPTAIN JEON JUNGKOOK IN THE FUTURE?
WORRYING.
KIM TAEHYUNG}
Tae quietly went towards him, Jungkook was facing his back and he seemed to focused to notice a presence behind him.
Tae peeked on what he was doing, and he saw that he's drawing something.
'Why is he drawing guns?' He thought, but still amazed by the talent.-
Its that purple notebook again. The same notebook that Tae was curious about. It seemed too special for Jungkook, and he wanted to find out why.
"Woah, spare me some talent." Jungkook almost jumped on his place when he heard a voice behind him. He was so startled and he almost threw the notebook away. He turned around and closed his eyes in annoyance when he saw who it is.
"What do you want?" Jungkook asked, hiding the notebook behind his back. Tae pouted and pointed the notebook by his lips.
"Why are you drawing guns?" He asked.-
"Because I want to." Jungkook dared to leave, but Tae blocked his way. "I believe there's another reason."
Jungkook tried to go on the other side but Tae blocked it too. "Why are you ignoring me?"
"I'm not ignoring you."
"Yes you are."
"No I'm not.".
"Cross your heart?"
"Hope to die."
Tae was about to speak again when he realized what just Jungkook said. Hope to die? He will, but Tae was wishing that this time - history will spare him.
Jungkook escaped him, but Tae still followed him behind. "What if you really die?"-
Tae asked, he wanted to know what Jungkook would feel. "I'm a soldier, I'm born to die." Tae couldn't help himself but to feel sadder.
He could've not asked him that, and now his heart hurts.
"Where are you going?" Tae asked, trying to make the atmosphere lighter.-
"Why would I tell you?"
They we're walking while talking. "Because I'm cute." Tae giggled. Jungkook looked back.
"How does that connect?" He asked. "You should tell me because I'm cute." He flashed his boxy smile and Jungkook just shook his head.-
"Look, I need to do my tasks. And I can't do that when you're following me like this. Please mind your business."
Tae pouted and glared at him. "You're mean, really mean." He rolled his eyes and turn around to leave.
He hasn't gone that far yet but someone came to him.-
"Taehyung!" Bogum called, running towards him with his gummy smile. Tae's face lit up.
"Hey!" He greeted back.
"Good thing I saw you. I'm currently doing horse back riding. Wanna join?" Tae felt a bit awkward. "I-I don't want to ride a –"
"Nothing will go wrong. I promise."-
Bogum held Tae's wrist, and Jungkook's eyes caught it. He watched them go to the field until they're far away now.
Jungkook sighed and felt different. He can't explain the feeling and he doesn't want to know.
He shrugged it off and went back to his business.-
On the other hand, Tae felt uncomfortable about riding the horse. But Bogum, he's really guiding him.
Tae let out a shaky breathe and Bogum noticed it.
"Don't worry, we wont go out. Just in the field." He rode the other horse and flashed a smile.-
They started going on circles in the field, little by little, Tae is starting to feel comfortable riding a horse again. And that made Bogum smile.
"I'm sorry If I dragged you into this. But you know, we ride a horse on wars. And I just want to help you be comfortable again."
Tae chuckled. "I know, that's why atleast I forced myself too. And I'm glad I did cuz I feel a bit relaxed now."
They continued going circles, slowly and sometimes hastening their movements.
"Hey...I just...I just wanna thank you." Tae started. "For what?"
"For saving me in the forest last week. I really thought it was the end of me. But you came, so I would probably consider this my second life."
Bogum chuckled. "Its okay. But if that happens again, don't panic okay? Mind over matter." He advised.-
Tae glanced at Bogum. His face looks angelic, he smiles a lot, and he really seems approachable.
Unlike SOMEONE HE KNEW.
Tae randomly looked into the building and he saw Jungkook looking at him.
He immediately waved at him and flashed a smile, but he just went away.-
Tae giggled. He thought it was cute. He's really doing his best to obey what his father ordered him.
And Tae felt safe.
He knew Jungkook would always be there. Even if he's not looking, he knew Jungkook has his eyes on him.
Never in his life, did he ever felt this safe.
*Tae's Thought*
("gosh i really need to see whats inside that notebook.")
For the past few weeks, Tae still kept following him around. He did not care if he's obvious or not. He just goes with the flow.
And he's really thankful that Jungkook isn't mentioning anything about it anymore.
Maybe, that's what made his job easier.
But that notebook ----
is really bothering him. He knew there's something inside it since Jungkook has been obviously protecting it.
What's so special with that notebook that even a hero protects it?
Today, Tae wanted to solve all of his questions. He made a plan, he needs to get that notebook.
