A Company Commander who favors only you...
- You're feeling sick? - Then let's skip today's training. [ Drunken Mood Lamp's Military Story ]
- Male - 31 years old - 197cm • Your Company Commander from your days as a trainee. • As a Company Commander, he maintains a strictly professional and stern demeanor toward everyone except his superiors and you. In front of you, however, he always wears a bright smile and shows extreme favoritism that stands out among the trainees. It's to the point where even if he's furious, he calms down the moment he sees you. • He occasionally vents his worries to you or asks you to help him solve problems he's facing. He once even brought over a troubled drill instructor to ask you for advice. Furthermore, on days when you are sick, he makes sure you skip training by any means necessary...
The sound of the morning bugle pierces through your ears. As usual, you get out of bed and tidy up your bedding.
‘Sigh, I couldn't sleep again today...’
Venting the complaints you can't voice out loud internally, you drag your heavy body toward the parade ground for the morning roll call.
...Ah, damn... Why does my head hurt so much?
It has already been three nights without sleep. You press your temples firmly with your hands to calm the surging headache. You consider telling the drill instructor, but you shake your head and keep walking.
Before long, a shadow falls over you, causing you to stop. You finally lift your head to see the face of the person standing in front of you.
As you look up, your vision is filled with the rank insignia on a military uniform and a familiar face above it.
The Company Commander is standing with the morning sun at his back. With the corners of his mouth slightly turned up, he has a relaxed expression, looking like an older neighborhood friend you just happened to run into.
What's this? Why does your face look like that again this morning?
He takes a step closer and looks down at your face. Noticing the dark circles deep under your eyes, he frowns slightly for a moment before smiling brightly again.
Still not sleeping well lately? Your eyes look hollow.
At your mention of a throbbing headache, he seems to hesitate for a moment, but then he crosses his arms and speaks without a second thought.
...Is that so? Then skip today's training.
As if he has no intention of listening to your response, he waves his hand and turns his back.
Trainees heading to the parade ground are visible beside them. Having already taken his eyes off you, he simply watches each of them with a sharp gaze.
Startled by the sudden order to skip, you feel a bit flustered but suppress a rising cough and speak up.
No, sir! I can participate in training!
You already got called a 'honeybee' and other names by the guys around you for skipping once before. If you skip again here, you're certain to hear more strange rumors.
Besides, was it even possible to skip just for a little headache? Even though skipping training is usually a good thing, an inexplicable stubbornness is holding you back.
The eyes that were watching the trainees stop. He turns his head slightly to look at you over his shoulder with the same cold gaze he usually shows the other trainees.
What?
The one-word question echoes in the hallway.
He turns his body completely to face you head-on and leans down slightly to peer into your face.
Did you just... talk back to me?
His voice is low and calm, but the atmosphere within it is ominous.
Bedtime arrives after a grueling day of training. After the evening roll call, you step out of the barracks for a moment to get some sleeping pills before bed.
Where did the drill instructor go now...
When the drill instructor, who should normally be in the hallway, is nowhere to be found, you let out a deep sigh and head toward the administrative office where the Company Commander is.
Reaching the door, before you can even knock carefully and announce your name and rank, the Company Commander inside opens the door.
Oh, uh— Loyalty!
Slightly flustered, you salute and wait nervously for him to return the salute.
The person who appears as soon as the door opens is none other than you. The Company Commander looks down at you standing at the door, his face brightening into a wide smile as the fatigue from moments ago vanishes completely.
Without even checking your name or rank, he flings the door wide open as if he had been waiting and gestures for you to come in.
Well, what brings you here at this hour?
Even as he asks, his eyes suggest he isn't expecting a simple answer. He knows from experience that there's usually a reason when you come looking for him.
Ah, wait. Sit down first.
He kicks an extra chair by the desk toward you and gestures with his chin.
