Under Sun
4. He Is Jaehyun's

Wait for. Something is strange.

Jea from earlier continued to see the scenery that— does not make sense. That is to say, the man was the same man as the bloody night a few days ago. But... Why is his behavior so normal now?

Jeffrey still did not say anything to him, only dwelling on the papers that Jea herself did not know what they contained. Maybe reports? Because Jea had accidentally read the words 'prisoner escaped' on one of the paper's plates.

Yes, she was one of the women who could read in this era. Secretly, as the Collins family leaves, Jea will always spend her time in the Collins family's private library until her punishment returns.

"Your name."

The girl was touched when Jeffrey suddenly called out his thoughts in the midst of silence.

"Y-yes.. Mr..?"

"What's your name?"

Jea gulped down his saliva heavily, "Jea.. Jea Cochava."

This time Jeffrey managed to turn his eyes to Jea who had been standing next to him since, "You're afraid of me?"

Again, this man managed to make Jea's mind ravaged. How could he ask that if the first thing he did in front of Jea was to kill people?

"N-no.."

Jeffrey sighed, "I'm sorry if I ever scared you before. It's out of control. And, my name is Jaehyun."

Hm? Whatdoes thatmean? Jea was increasingly clueless with the freshly exposed creaking of the man's lips.

Didn't this guy introduce himself as Jeffrey?

"Sorry Mister.. Not the name of the Master.. J-Jeffrey?"

Hearing this made Jaehyun's view a little more serious than the previous one, "You met Jeffrey before this?"

Wait— so they are different people? The twins? Or how? Jea's getting stupid here.

But despite asking what she meant, Jea simply nodded, "Yes, sir.."

Jaehyun sighed furiously. Mind's right. His trap from earlier that was dancing in his brain is proven already. Jeffrey again, he thought. It is worth it he was confused by the presence of this woman who claimed to be his slave.

"Look, maybe you're confused. But, tonight, don't go anywhere and lock your room?" Jaehyun said again which made the girl beside him nod back.

One thing that has long been inherent in Jea is; never ask too many questions if you do not want to be punished.

"Sorry for what Jeffrey did to you before. I don't know what he's doing either, but it's not good?" Now Jaehyun's gaze softened slightly when he saw Jea's frail body full of bruises.

This time Jea was confused as to what to answer. Jeffrey did a bad thing, but not to him. So what should he answer?

"Ep.. Mr. Jeffrey didn't do anything bad to Jea."

Jaehyun did not reply. But his gaze was a little confused and curious. Then why is this woman afraid when she sees her figure as Jeffrey? Ah, nevermind. He must immediately take care of the reports of some military captains before him.

"If you're tired, just sit down."

Instead of being happy, Jea was scared. Was it after he sat down, that Jaehyun would punish him?

"I won't do anything about you. Sit." Sit."

Feeling as if she had just been grounded, Jea quickly sat down on the chair attached to the wall. I no longer know what will happen to him. No matter, the important thing is that he just follows orders.

Jea's gaze continued to fall on Jaehyun. Jea secretly feels that Jaehyun is the most charismatic man he has met in his 19-year life. Are the men out there really shaped like this Mr Jaehyun?

The situation in Jaehyun's room was calm as well. Several birds chirping rang out behind the vents. The room is minimalist, whitewashed without many ornaments. Only one wooden cabinet contained a pile of paper, two chairs attached to the wall, one small blue fan located on the table, and, and one wooden table was also the large chair that Jaehyun was currently sitting on.

For some reason, Jea felt safe here. Though it should be, he should be wary of new people he meets. But look, Jaehyun doesn't look like the slightest bad guy. Even from the style of his speech earlier, he seemed too polite to his own slaves.

Maybe an hour has passed with such a quiet activity. Jaehyun who was struggling on the paper on the table, also Jea who was just pensively staring at Jaehyun. To be honest, the girl was confused as to what to act like. Because he had never been a slave officially before. Ah.. is this illegal? I don't know.

Does he have to clean? Or how?

His heart was aghast as he looked at Jaehyun who was standing suddenly from the chair. The man was wearing a black coat wrapped in his green uniform. Then Jaehyun's gaze turned to Jea who was getting cold sweaty.

It was obvious that the woman was scared to death of him.

Jeffrey assholes.

Jea nodded back with a frenzy. Looks like he'll have to learn how to not be afraid of others, "B-good sir.."

After gazing at his chain watch, Jaehyun walked towards the door, "Come, we go."

The woman quickly tailed behind Jaehyun who had already walked first in front. If you look around, Jaehyun's body is indeed very sturdy. Even his shoulders are wide. His back is also beautiful to look at. Ah, what is Jea thinking right now?

They went through several enclosed rooms as well as several holding cells. Jea was a little horrified at the sight of the cruel gazes of the prisoners inside the cell. It looks very sad. But there are also some who curl fear in the cell wall.

This military base is huge. To the extent that Jea was very happy when she saw the large fence that Jea had entered with some men before. Finally out!

Jea's footsteps continued to follow Jaehyun who was moving towards a black mustang car that was stuck in the military headquarters. But his steps immediately stopped when Jaehyun got into the car.

Jaehyun looked confusedly at Jea. What is this woman doing? Why are you standing in front of the car?

Jaehyun lowered his car window, "Hey, come in."

With a clumsy gesture Jea finally approached the windshield of the car, "Sorry Sir.. But.. How's it?"

Again Jea successfully made Jaehyun surprised for the success of his success. So this girl hasn't been in a car in her whole life? Though from the information he had just read, Jea was the adopted son of the Collins family.

Jaehyun did not want to talk much. He got back out of the car and moved towards the opposite door, "Get in."

Jea nervously walked over to Jaehyun who was opening the car door for him, "Thank you, sir."

The man did not answer. After making sure that Jea was sitting properly in the car, he immediately closed the right car door and moved to the previous side.

The car drove quickly, splitting the deserted road that felt hot due to the scorching sun.

During the trip, there was still no conversation going on. Silent. But it is not a problem for both. After all, their real relationship is only limited to masters and slaves, right?

But it seemed like Jaehyun did not think so.

"I used to be a soldier in Vancouver, but was transferred to Toronto as police chief. But sometimes I still visit the military headquarters as a soldier" Papar Jaehyun who is still busy driving.

Jea looked. Did Jaehyun just ask him to talk? Again he asked himself whether this was normal or not.

Dazed, Jea just nodded her head.

"Who knows what I'm curious about" Jaehyun replied after a quick look at Jea's nod.

"You too if you want to say something, just talk directly to me. Don'tbeafraid. You don't need to be formal like a slave to his master. I don't see you as a slave."

Jea rounded her eyes. Why would Jaehyun be able to say that? Her thought.

"I'm not a typical person who ignores human rights."

Not knowing what to do, Jea just fell silent. It turned out that this Jaehyun was a very difficult person to guess. Or maybe it's the girl who's hard to understand?

Well, I don't know.

Jaehyun's mustang stopped right in front of a large house that was located alone behind shady trees. After Jaehyun taught him how to open the car door, the man went straight out of his mustang followed by Jea in the back.

Beautiful house, thought Jea who was walking in the yard of the house. It looks even nicer than the Collins family home used to be. Although the size is almost the same, but the Collins family home is more based on wooden ornaments than Jaehyun's house that seems more modern.

"Let's go in" Jea then looked at Jaehyun who had opened the door of his house. The girl slightly ran around after seeing Jaehyun who disappeared behind the brownish door.

"Gee.." Jea said unconsciously after seeing how beautiful all aspects of this house are. It turns out that not only the exterior that steals the heart, the inside is also very beautiful.

Jea was shocked as her eyes no longer found Jaehyun walking in front of her.

But the thing that made him more surprised was the voice of another woman who burst into his ears.

Quickly, Jea's brown netra was directed at a beautiful woman who walked out of the room that looked like a room in tandem with Jaehyun.

Really, Jea did not lie when she found out that she was too beautiful.

Who is that girl?

It looked so familiar to Jaehyun that the man could smile sweetly like this.

"I will miss you so bad."

Jaehyun again incised his smile and returned the woman's embrace, "Don't be long, I'll miss."
