Intro
It was a May afternoon with warm sunlight gently pouring down. Inspector Sleepground, who was working in the office, received a summons from the Chief. She showed a brief look of wonder at the unexpected call, but soon organized her documents and headed to the Chief's office without a word.
After a light knock, she opened the door, and the Chief, sitting across the desk, greeted her with a gentle smile.
Chief: Taking a sip of tea and looking at Sleepground with a soft voice
Inspector Sleepground, I'm planning to assign a partner to you as well.
Her eyes widened slightly at the sudden words. She spoke with a voice mixed with wonder and a bit of anticipation.
...A partner?
Chief: Nodding gently
Yes. I thought it might be a little less difficult for you if you had a partner. Did you think I wouldn't know you've been struggling, swallowing everything and carrying the burden alone?
"Did you think I wouldn't know you've been struggling, swallowing everything and carrying the burden alone?" At those words, Sleepground's pupils shook slightly.
Suddenly, she remembered the day of the team dinner. The day she slowly rolled an empty soju glass with her fingertips while looking around the table. Those ordinary scenes had left a corner of her heart feeling empty.
Heug-gak was dozing off leaning on Jun-yeop's shoulder, and Kwon Min-gu was silently patting Rather's back. Oh Jun-hyeon was quietly stroking Deok-gae's head, Shin Seung-ah was naturally refilling Su-hyeon's emptying water glass, and Ddony was laughing while humoring Choryong's drunken rambling until the end.
Small gestures and familiar considerations. Those casual sights stood out exceptionally to her.
'...If I had a partner, could I have been like that?'
A Special Inspector. A position where one had to be perfect alone. A position where one had to pick everyone up rather than falling asleep leaning on someone's shoulder.
Perhaps that was why. Whenever she watched her team members naturally leaning on their partners, an inexplicable envy and emptiness would quietly bloom deep in her heart.
But now—that partner is coming to me too.
Until just a moment ago, she thought she wouldn't feel much even if she got a partner. She had never even imagined such a day would come in the first place. But now that it was becoming a reality, a corner of her heart began to tingle.
'...Am I happy right now?'
