Chapter 1 :New Mister
Set in an alternate universe South Korea,which is ruled by the powerful Korean Mafia.
There is law,there is police,but only for namesake. No one dares to go against the Elite Mafia Clan.
Lead by Leader Han,who every citizen fears. A man no one dares mess with. There is no rival to them , all other mafia groups have become non existent ever since their rise in power. It is a total monopoly.
Just like a butterfly caught in a spider's web,there is a young girl hidden at the centre of this dark web- Han Jia.
Jia is 22 years old(korean age). A student of medicine. The reason she took up medicine and wanted to become a doctor was because she wanted to heal. All she saw growing up around her is violence.
She wanted to go far away from this life one day, some far away country,say Switzerland,where there is only peace and happiness,and be able to spread joy and heal people.
She was a college student in her final year. Just a year more,and she would be free to go from this trap,her father promised.
The day she turned 23,was the day she would find freedom.
She was all alone at University,as nobody dared to even look up at her-she was the First Daughter of the country. Even the teachers feared her. Jia was tired mentally-she absolutely never even had human interactions with anyone.
Everyone saw her to be 'one if them' . Was life even worth living all alone like this?
But at least she has her father, who she loved very much. She didn't care what kind of a man he was. Whatever he was doing was for her and loved her back. Just a year more and she will finally be free. That's what she kept telling herself.
Her daily routine had been the same since years.
Waking up,heading to uni,getting back,studying,eating and sleeping. There was no sort of new things in her life.
She was all alone in the mansion her father kept her in at a hidden place in the city,where no one could reach her- she was his weakness.
He visited very rarely,doing most conversation on phone or through video calls as he was always on the move.
It was a raining that evening,it was a Friday and Jia was relaxing on the couch in her room watching television.
She was not expecting anyone and was surprised when the maid announced that her father had come to see her.
She quickly sprang up excitedly. Meeting her father was the only happiness she had. She ran out into the living room.
"Papa!" She grinned widely and saw him seated in the living room couch. He got up and opened his arms wide as she went and hugged him.
"I missed you my Rapunzel." He says patting her long hair.
She smiles up widely at him and says 'me too'
They both sit down and have some tea.
"Why the sudden visit papa? Not that I am complaining,but I am just surprised." She giggles.
"Well,let me get to the point then darling." He says with a solemn expression.
She is worried at his change of tone.
"What's wrong papa? Everything is okay with you right?" She asks with worried eyes.
"Yes princess.... it's not about me,it's you that I am worried about..." He says with a worried face.
"What is it papa..." She takes his hands into hers and searches his face for an answer.
"Princess,this is only a safety precaution,though I am 99 percent sure you will be alright..." He stutters.
"Papa, pleaseee cut to the chase...you are scaring me..." She says anxiously.
"Princess...for a while...just for a little while,you will have a bodyguard."
"Papa...but why all of a sudden...I have never had to have one. There's no one in Korea who would go against you!" She says in shock.
"Yes,no one would go against your father,it's just that I heard that some psycho is on the loose right now...it's just for a while...for my satisfaction of knowing you are safe....okay princess?"
Jia nods her head. Papa knows what's best for her always.
"He will stay next to you all the time okay?" Jia nods.
"Okay,please come in Mr Choi" he calls out and Jia stares in that direction ,expecting to find a 40 something old martial arts expert walk in through the door,but was shocked to see what happened next.
Dressed in a dapper black suit, a tall handsome young man walked in.
"This is your bodyguard- Choi Yeonjun." Her father introduced as she watched him agape.
"Papa...are you sure...this is the man who is going to protect me?" She says in shock.
"He is the best in this field, and a man I trust very much." He says confidently.
" I don't doubt his abilities Papa, if you appointed him,I am sure he is the best." She tells him.
"It's just that...well...he is young...like me..." She thinks.
"Okay Yeonjun,protect my Rapunzel. Never let her out of your sight.Never." he instructs Yeonjun who bows.
"I will sir." He says in a firm stiff cold tone.
Jia sighs, "another robot in my life now I guess."
Her father gives her a hug and leaves. The maids had left too,since it was evening. Now it was only her and this new stranger-Yeonjun in the house.
"Umm...aren't you hungry...Mr..." She says awkwardly.
Yeonjun remains stiff and answers straight forwardly.
"No miss"
"Did he just give me a one word answer..?" Jia sighs.
"Yeah he is going to be another robot who I cannot interact with at all..." She sighs.
"Okay, I will have supper then." She says and heads to the dining hall.
She sits down to have her meal as Yeonjun stands at the far end of the room,watching and 'protecting' her.
She felt really uncomfortable,it would be much better if her sat down with her instead of standing. She didn't like feeling superior.
"Umm...Mr...could you also please sit down ...maybe here...your legs would hurt otherwise...." She says softly.
"No miss,I am trained for this , I am alright." He says in the same monotonous tone.
Jia sighs,this wouldn't do though,she cannot eat like this.
She also gets up and stands ,if he wasn't sitting she wasn't either.
He doesn't however give any kind of response and her legs start to get tired.
"Mr...will you really not come and sit down? My legs have been hurting...this trick is supposed to work..when I stand you are supposed to ask me to sit down,and I should say I would sit only if you do, and you would agree. Why are you not following the rules?" She pouts.
What seems to be like a millisecond long grin on his face quickly vanishes.
"Okay miss,please be seated, I will sit too." He says as he sits on a chair two seats away from her seat at the head of the table.
"Okay trick number 2, I won't eat,if you don't eat,it's awkward and not polite. So please eat Mr...okay?"
Yeonjun nods and gets up to fetch his meal for himself before she stops him.
"Wait,you are like my first guest in 15 years,let me serve" she laughs. She was surprised how she was able to be so comfortable with a man she just met. It was very unlike her. What is about this Mr though? maybe it's all in her head. She didn't know and decided not to give it much thought now.
She placed a plate of Kimchi fried rice before him.
"Thank you miss." he says and both of them start eating.
"By the way,I couldn't catch it properly before...what was your name again...mr...?" She asks.
"Yeonjun,Choi Yeonjun."he says .
"Ohh yess Mr Yeonjun..." She murmurs.
"How old are you...if I may ask." She was really curious about him for some reason.
"22" he says emotion lessly
"Woah! You are way younger than I thought-wait,you are my age!" She says in bewilderment . He doesn't show any new emotions in response.
"Well,I have seen my Papa over the years,and according to him, 'a little while' last as long as a century." She says laughing. He nods in response.
"Wow,it's really like talking to robot when I talk to you." She says in informal speech. He looks up at her suddenly,as if offended.
"That's because you don't show any emotions or respond. Also I can drop the honorifics with you right? Since we are the same age?" She asks again.
"Miss, I wouldn't have any problem either way, whatever you are comfortable with."
She nods,too tired of arguing about his stiffness.She just had to go to bed now,she was very tired.
"I will go sleep now... You can take the guest room." She says and turns to walk towards room,but her hand is held in someone's warm palms.
Jia turns around quickly and jumps at the sudden skinship.
Yeonjun is still staring at her without emotion.
"Miss I am supposed to guard you 24/7." He states again.
"So what?"
"We cannot be in separate rooms..." He says awkwardly.
"Oh no...." She knows where this is heading.
