Just as the mother and son were engrossed in their loving conversation, Commander Yun had arrived and when his sight fell on the handsome man leaning on a luxurious car, he was obviously mystified. He was already notified that a certain VIP came to visit the base but he ignored it, believing that the person was just some ultra-rich fella who simply wanted to tour around.
’I-isn’t this the elusive legendary monster who shut down our military base as a child more than a decade ago?’ the commander exclaimed inwardly as he looked at the beautiful man. He was dumbstruck that he was seeing the real deal right now. Back then, Commander Yun was among the top agents whom the government given a mission to capture the man with a codename ’monster’ but failed miserably not just once but countless times. He is elusive and mystifying, he was aware just what kind of monster this person was. Even for a decade, no one in the whole world manage to capture him. For someone like him who was among the decorated elite agents who tried but failed, he was a complete untouchable monster, an invincible being in his eyes. Now that he is all grown up and standing right before him, he couldn’t help but felt tremors down his spine, even though he isn’t an enemy anymore.
That moment, Davi who was kneeling on the ground stood and saluted the commander.
Watching her, the father and son was looking at her with same expression. There were stars in their eyes, looking at her with extraordinary pride and honor.
“Sergeant, I received a word from the headquarters. They transferred you to the research department. Effective today, you will be focusing on your researches. Remember that you aren’t just military asset; but also this country’s very valuable asset, so I hope you will continue exceeding your best.” The commander stated and Davi’s eyes widen for a moment before she responded with a ’yes sir’. She knew there’s no way she can decline an order from the headquarters.
Afterwards, the commander finally lowered his eyes and stared at the little boy beside her.
“Who is this little young man?” He asked and Davi was about to reply when the boy introduced himself.
“Hello commander, my name is Shin.” He said. His voice was loud as though he was trying to say it like he was also a soldier. And the confidence he exhibited surprised everyone around except of course, his dad.
“What a great young man you are. How old are you Little Shin?” The commander asked again, looking obviously fond of the young boy.
“I’m five-year-old.” He replied. His gaze, the way he talks and behave made everyone have a hard time believing he was just five. However, looking at him and knowing about the presence of a powerful man just few steps across them, they remembered that this terrifying tycoon have a little five-year-old prince whom the special force just saved yesterday. The commander also heard that the boy didn’t let go of his niece so he could already assume that the little boy was here to meet her.
“So you’re here to visit her?” Commander Yun asked and for some reason, the boy glanced at the man nonchalantly leaning on his car right there, unmoving. After a second, he returned his gaze back towards the commander and he nodded.
“Commander, can I ask you to grant me a request?” The little boy asked and the man could only smile. ’Who would dare not grant a request from a prince of this caliber? Even the president wouldn’t dare offend that man over there by rejecting his son’s request, right?’
“Of course. State your request young man.” The commander replied and the boy’s eyes sparkled. He raised his little arm and held Davi’s hand.
“Please let me take this lady out, for a day.” He said, with a voice determined and adorably manly. That instant, everyone fell silent as if a noisy crow just flew above them. They were speechless for a long while upon hearing a certain adorable little boy saying those words, while a certain man’s lips momentarily curved with a triumphant smile, knowing his plans are falling into place.
Davi on the other hand who just stood there looking at the little boy the entire time was more than surprised with his eloquence that she too was lost for words. She blinked more than three times as she gazed at him until someone among the soldiers behind the commander coughed, causing everyone to snapped back to reality.
“O-of course, of course. Actually, I was about to tell her to take a day off today. So if she’s fine with it, you can have her for a day.” The commander said and the little boy smiled dazzlingly. As if the sun itself was him, warming everyone hearts.
That moment, Davi who was gazing at him closely couldn’t help but felt like her knees were weakening. Her heart was like an ice cream melting under the sun as soon as she saw that sweet and beautiful smile of her son. An urge to squeeze the adorable little guy made her heart gone wild and she hugged him tight again.
