Author's Note:

This chapter should have taken the final part of the previous chapter, but I decide to give it a different chapter, for this is the time for our lovely couple to have their time together. In the drama, there are no too mushy and fluffy scenes between them and I try to make it as canon as I can. Also in the drama, we rarely see them enjoy their time outside the workplace and Mo Yeon's place (I always wonder where the hell Si Jin lives), and some dining places, I give them a space to enjoy outdoor.


Kang Mo Yeon and Yoo Si Jin

After having the talk with the General, Si Jin took Mo Yeon to see the military base, as much as a civilian allowed. They visited the training grounds, cafeteria, meeting halls, until finally the army clinic. Si Jin knocked the office door and Myeong Ju quickly rose from her seat and gave him a salute. They might be friends, but Si Jin was still her superior.

"I thought you want to see someone," Si Jin said cheekily and then Mo Yeon appeared next to him, waving her hand to the General's daughter.

Myeong Ju's face brightened. "Mo Yeon?"

"Hi, Liutenant Yoon."

"Oh, gosh." Myeong Ju approached Mo Yeon and gave her a big hug. "It's a surprise to see you here."

Si Jin only smiled watching the two of them. Apparently, they both already put aside their cold war over that Yoon Gi guy and had a great friendship.

"What brings you here?" Myeong Ju asked after leaning away from her embrace and watched Si Jin with calculating eyes.

"The Yellow Tiger wanted to see Beauty, so I brought her here," Si Jin answered.

Mo Yeon blinked. "Yellow Tiger?"

"It's my father's call sign. Hey, wait. Did you just say he want to see Mo Yeon?" Mo Yeon asked again.

"Maybe Dr. Kang can tell you about it." Si Jin interjected and turned to Mo Yeon. "I need to go to my office for a while, asking if I can get permission until tonight for you. I'll be back."

"Ok," Mo Yeon replied.

Si Jin gave her a small smile before walking away from the office.

Myeong Ju took a deep breath and exhaled. "So, this is my office."

Mo Yeon nodded and started looking around. For a clinic, the place was quite good, almost as good as a hospital. The medical equipments and the medicines, both of them were high standards.

"Do you standby in this place everyday?" Mo Yeon asked.

"Not everyday. I have my off duty too, just like Si Jin and Dae-young. And you also know, I could be sent abroad too, just like in Urk."

"I thought the first time you went to Urk, it was more like an arrangement," Mo Yeon said.

Myeong Ju smiled. "You knew?"

The pretty doctor shrugged. "Si Jin hinted about it at one time. I guess not only in the hospital you can use your power for things like that."

"Speaking about that, why my father want to see you?"

Mo Yeon looked around once again before sitting on one of the chairs. "He heard about my engagement to Si Jin. He just wanted to talk to me."

"And?"

"And I talked to him. He gave me his blessing."

Myeong Ju smiled. "That's a good news. We should celebrate it soon. Maybe double date again?"

"This time without the stuffed animals."

Both of them laughed.

"I guess the time when we thought we lost the men we loved, my father realized something. My love for Dae-young was real and still do until now."

Mo Yeon looked at Myeong Ju closely. "Why can't you have any feelings for Si Jin? You both have known each other for years."

Myeong Ju smiled. "Do you think it will make easier for us to become friends if I have feelings for him too? I don't want to reunite with you and there's another man between us again." The General's daughter sighed. "I can't answer that either, but in my eyes Si Jin is a good friend. He is smart and...I don't know...I just never feel any romantic feelings for him. You know about the terms, he is not the one for me? And then he met you, so problem solved."

"Well, your father didn't think like that."

"Good thing he finally did. I'm sure if my father still pressing this matter, Si Jin will speak openly he is interested in someone else. You knew how he was in Urk, right? He won't take no for an answer. He liked you and he wanted you to like him too. That's Si Jin. I'm glad you finally came to your senses."

Speak the devil and the devil may come. Si Jin suddenly appeared on the door with bright smile.

"I have permission to leave the office until tonight. Do you want to go somewhere?" he asked Mo Yeon.

The pretty doctor also smiling brightly. "Oh, really? That's nice."

Myeong Ju playfully shoved Mo Yeon from her chair. "Go on. Not everyday he can get permission like this. I guess you tame the Yellow Tiger and he excuses Big Boss for you."

Mo Yeon chuckled. "I'm going then. Hopefully, we can meet again soon."

"Sure...sure." And then, Myeong Ju gave her salute to Si Jin while the Major replied. "Take her home safely, will you, Major?"

"Aisshh...of course I will," Si Jin replied while pretending to be offended.

After saying goodbye to Myeong Ju, Mo Yeon along with Si Jin left the military base. Before going in into the car, Mo Yeon turned around and looked again to the place where her fiance worked. She smiled dreamily watching the base where the men will protect the country no matter what happened and her fiance was one of those men.


Having free time and be able to spend together were precious things for the soldier and doctor. Si Jin took his beloved to public park, enjoying the afternoon after buying drinks.

"We should have spent our time like this again," Mo Yeon said softly while sitting on a chair with Si Jin next to her.

"Yes, I agree. I almost forgot when was the last time we can enjoy our time like this."

The Major watched Mo Yeon enjoyed her drink and chuckled softly. "I know I already asked you, but how did it go with the General? What did you talk about?"

Mo Yeon went silent before answering, "He just wants to make sure if I know what it is like being married to a soldier."

Si Jin blinked and then Mo Yeon stared at his eyes.

"And that makes me curious." She was in a deep thought before continuing, "Is...is rank really matters to you?"

Si Jin looked surprise, but after seeing Mo Yeon's curious eyes, he only smiled. "No, not for me. Why did you ask?"

"It's just...Myeong Ju's father. Just because Sergeant Seo is not on the higher rank than his daughter, he caused them difficult times. I'm so glad it's over now," Mo Yeon answered in low voice.

Si Jin looked at the beautiful doctor next to him and tucked a loose hair behind her ear. "If it's matter to me, I won't risk my pride to win your heart. I even told that man under the ruins of power plant after the earthquake that you rejected me three times and he said why I still alive while he would be dead in embarassment."

Mo Yeon's eyes widened. "You told him that?"

"I just wanted to distract him. It worked."

"So, it was a joke?"

"No, it was real." Si Jin leaned down until their faces nearly touched. "It is real. It's always real for me."

Mo Yeon's beautiful eyes almost distracted him and Si Jin gave her playful smirk before leaning away and eyed her with playful eyes, "So, you haven't answered my question. How many boyfriends have you had?"

Mo Yeon blinked several times. "WHATT? Why are you asking me that question?"

"I think it's about time for me to know that before I become your husband."

"Well, you haven't answered my question either. You dated a truckload of girls, didn't you?"

"Huh?"

"Who got upset and who didn't believe you?"

"Aiisshhh...this woman. You just killed me twice today."

"Twice? When was the first?"

"When you said the General wanted us to break up."

"Oh, that..."

They went silent for a moment before Mo Yeon sighed. "You're not going to let it go, are you?"

Si Jin grinned. "No."

"It's past in the afternoon. Your time is almost up."

"I can call a chopper to get me to the base and take you back to the hospital. You choose."

Mo Yeon's shoulders slumped. "Gosh, you're unbelievable." She pouted and from the corner of her eyes, she could see Si Jin still waiting for her answer. The doctor gave up and rolled her eyes. "Oh, fine. You know Yoon Gi and Mr. Han. Those two at least had something to do with my love life although it was not really a relationship. And I had one boyfriend."

The latter made Si Jin straightened his posture. "Who?"

Mo Yeon looked at Si Jin with playful eyes. "What? You don't think I can have a boyfriend?"

"I don't think you can be honest with that."

"Well, you told me to be honest."

"Who was it? Who was your boyfriend?"

Mo Yeon gave Si Jin her best glare. "I think you know him." She patted Si Jin's cheek. "It's you."

The doctor's answer made Si Jin's heart swelled with pride. But, did she say she had a boyfriend? What was he, then?

"You're not my boyfriend anymore. You're my fiance. That's the difference."

Si Jin smiled lovingly. "How could you know I asked that in my head?"

"I heard it loud and clear."

They both chuckled.

"So, it's your turn," Mo Yeon said.

Si Jin took a deep breath. "Well, I don't really have serious girlfriends. Mostly I only had two or three dates, but never turned into a serious relationship."

"Just like we did before Urk?"

The Major blushed. "Yes, you can say that. But, since I met you, I know you were different. That was why I felt so down when you dumped me."

"And the flight attendant?"

"I don't really think that counts. I was surprised they sent a parcel when I was in Urk."

"If I wasn't there, you would accept it nonetheless?"

Si Jin blew a breath. "If I think about it again, I don't think I will accept it either. When you rejected me for the third time before the earthquake, I felt so heartbroken. At that time, I knew you are the one for me. I'm so glad we finally have a relationship and now we're getting married."

Mo Yeon smiled lovingly.

"And speaking about getting married, do you think we should start to arrange it?"

"Uh...what?"

"I don't really want to wait too long for us to get married," Si Jin grinned playfully.

"Oh you, pervert."

Si Jin lowering his head, closing the gap between him and Mo Yeon, ignoring her remark earlier. "I love you."

Mo Yeon stared back at those loving eyes and said, "I love you."

Si Jin held Mo Yeon's nape before giving her a deep kiss.

They were kissing with the sunset sky above them, promising them a brighter future.
