As instructed Dong Chug-Hee has been giving them every little information he could. From hiring the janitor to interns, every little thing. And the list which he gave, they checked records of each one of them narrow it down to few names. Names of the one they couldn't directly question. Yes, they had the permission to but Gauravi decided to take a step back and do it the old way. She didn't want her prey to run to his mud hole before she catches him.

"How are you sure that it is gonna to be one of them? And if you are so sure than why don't we just go put him behind the bars?" Soo Young exasperated throwing his hands up in the air. Gauravi rolled her eyes and leaned back in her chair as she munch on her egg sandwich. Both were having breakfast in cafe near the company.

"First of all, why are you so impatient?" Gauravi questioned still chewing on her sandwich. Soo Young made a face. "It's obvious that its not one of them. Because, simply they aren't equipped with that strengths." She answered tapping at her forehead.

"What do you mean?" He asked making her snort. "God disgusting!" He cringed as she wiped her mouth with back of her hand.

"It seems that you are also not equipped with that strength." She snorted again. "It's just as simple." She leaned forward. "Here tell me, do you think I would keep evidence of my dirty work in my records which is accessible by anybody?"

"Why would you? I mean if you are dumb or somethi-oh!" Gauravi grinned leaning back in chair again back to sandwich. "So, these five guys we narrowed down are the guys."

"Nuh uh." Gauravi shook her head. "I never said that. I just said the others were not. We cannot be sure about these five. It can be one of them or not. But they must be hiding some pretty bad shit if their records look that clean." Gauravi explained before a grin took place on her face. "What do you think it must be? Fraud? Embezzlement? Money laundering?"

"Is that important point for our discussion?" Soo Young rolled his eyes.

"No, but I was just making small talks." Gauravi looked offended for being called out like. "You are no fun sometimes Soo You-" She stopped when her phone buzzed on the table. Wiping her hands on her jeans she picked up the call. It was Ha Joon. "Yes, Ha Joon?"

"Hello, ma'am. I have picked up the package. And the boys are here."

"Okay thank you Joon." She smiled before hanging up the call. "Let's go." She said standing.

"What? Aren't we suppose to keep eye on that bald guy?" Soo Young looked confused following.

"Well, he left ages ago." Gauravi replied glancing back at him with furrowed eyebrows.

"W-what? When?!" Soo Young turned around to see where the men was sitting earlier.

"You are so bad at this Soo Young. Seriously." She shook her head in disappointment. Soo Young looked flustered hearing that.

"Shut up! I do other things better!" He argued hurriedly walking pass her into the building making Gauravi chuckled. "Stop laughing at your senior!" He shouted.

"You are just two years older!" She shouted back following behind him.

"Yes, still older than you." He glared getting into elevator. Gauravi followed him in and chuckled.

"What now? You want me to call you oppa? Is that what you want?" She grinned turning her to look at him.

"Shut up." Soo Young blushed staring ahead as other people joined them into the elevator.

"So you do want me to call you that. Okay then, From today onwards I'll call you Soo Young oppa~" She grinned teasing him. Soo Young had turned bright red, Gauravi chuckled at his face earning a few looks from others. "Uh oppa~ why aren't you saying anything~" She teased again.

"Stop it! I don't know you!" He hissed staring straight ahead. It was quite funny to take him seriously with his red face. Gauravi laughed as the elevator dinged. Excusing themselves they exited the elevator with Gauravi still teasing him. "Oppa~ stop running away from me~ Oppa!" Gauravi laughed as he buzzed away from there bumping into Ha Joon who looked amused at the two's interaction.

"You don't miss a chance at annoying him, do you ma'am?" Ha Joon asked to which Gauravi grin shaking her head no. Ha Joon chuckled.

"So did you get the package?" She asked to which Ha Joon held up the a fancy white paper bag. "Did you check it?" She questioned again peering into the bag.

"Yes, they are good."

"Okay, then. Let's go." She said skipping few steps. Ha Joon smiled shaking his head at her behavior. She seemed in good mood today. Wonder annoying Soo Young makes her that happy.

Peeking her head into the practice room she saw the boys gathered in the middle and discussing something. Most probably the choreography or something because they had Son Sung-Deuk standing there in middle. She knocked on door twice to gain their attention.

"Hello, sorry to disturb your practice. But, can I have few minutes with boys." Gauravi at Son Sung-Deuk and then at the boys.

"Um okay. I'll look into what you were saying." Son Sung-Deuk pointing at Hoseok before nodding at Gauravi and leaving.

"Thank you, Mr. Son." Gauravi bowed. "Get in." She nodded Ha Joon in. "Hello, boys! I hope you've been doing well last two days." She grinned.

"We've been good-" Namjoon was cut off half way as Jimin jumped away in Gauravi's arms snuggling her. Jungkook started with his blabber about how she came to visit them once and didn't return his text. Taehyung questioning her about had she used her gun.

"How are you Mr. Jimin? Did you get nightmares again?" She asked smiling as she patted Jimin's head who had snuggled up under her neck. "Bunny boy, I was busy on missions, I couldn't return your text sorry. And Mr. Taehyung, no, I didn't use my gun." She answered each of their question effortlessly. Ha Joon stared at her in admiration. How did she do that? All the time she complains about she only want to care about herself and herself only and yet here she is looking like a loving mother returning to her children after long day of work.

Namjoon sighed. He had warned the younger ones to not trouble her with their moans and groans yet here they are, the moment she walks in, they are at it. "Boys." Everyone stopped with what they were doing. Jungkook and Taehyung clammed their mouth shut while Jimin quietly move under from her arms. Deciding to keep scolding for latter, Namjoon turned towards Gauravi. "I am sorry about them." He apologized.

"Oh no-no. It's fine." Gauravi shook her head and smile at poor kids who looked to be pouting. "Well, I have something for you pouting babies." She teased pinching Jimin cheek who was near her. "Well, in fact for everyone. Ha Joon?" Ha Joon nodded opened the fancy white bag and pulled out velvet boxes passing them to the boys one by one. "Since you were complaining how I didn't get you any gift last time. Well here is it."

"Jewellery?" Jin asked as box was passed to him.

"Well, something like that." Gauravi smiled. "Open it." She urged, nudging Jimin with her arm.

"Dog tag?" Namjoon said as he pulled it out from the box. "Wow, it has my name on it." He whispered and then flipped it over. "Always by your side." He read making Gauravi chuckle.

"Yeah, that's me being cheesy as-butt." She corrected herself looking at the three babies inspecting their own chains. "Did you guys like it?" She asked looking at boys with smile.

"Ne!" Jungkook exclaimed with a grin as he slipped on his. "Noona, don't American soldier wear this?" He asked with excited grin on his face. Gauravi nodded smiling. She knew he would love this the most. "Wah Daebak!"

"Noona gamsahabnida!" Jimin sweetly put his on too.

"You didn't have to just because we said." Jin said staring at his admiration. "It must be have expensive since it is custom made."

"Oh it's nothing." She waved her hand off dismissing him. "Well, it has a little surprise to it too. Joon, if you demonstrate it please."

"Ne. Umm, Taehyung-ssi, if you don't mind?" He asked pointing towards the chain.

"Ha, ye, ye." Taehyung nodded passing him the chain.

"So, if everyone has notice. There is a little gem on tag." He instructed as he held the tag towards Taehyung so he could see it.

"De, pink one." Jin answered.

"Ne, everyone has different colour. You see that gem is not actually a gem but a panic button."

"Panic button." The words echoed as everyone repeated after him. Ha Joon nodded his head. "Ne, if you press it like this, little harder if you may. Then there, ma'am did you get?" He asked looking up at Gauravi.

"Ah yes, it's buzzing." Gauravi said pulling out her phone and check it. "It's here." She said showing her phone screen. It was Taehyung's name with location under it.

"Yes. The moment you press it we will directly get your location. So if you are in a tight situation where you cannot use your handphone or any other means, you press this button."

"Go on, press it." She whispered to Jimin who was staring at his. He nodded and pressed it lightly making her chuckle. "Little harder Mr. Jimin." She said. He nodded again and pressed it. "Ha, there you go." She said showing her phone screen to him. "Easy, right?" She asked to which Jimin grinned and nodded his head.

"Ne, press it harder." Ha Joon helped out Hoseok who was having little trouble.

"So that is what it meant, Always by your side." Namjoon said making her nod and smile. "Thank you." He genuinely said.

"Okay then, that's with it. I won't take your time anymore. I want you boys to keep it on you always. Chain can be wore as a bracelet too. So please use it as you see fit but keep it with you, okay?" Gauravi said looking at each one of them. Earning their nods she smiled. "Okay then, you boys can get back to your practice now." She smiled before nodding towards Ha Joon. Ha Joon nodded and they exited their practice room.
