      A/N: HAPPY SEULRENE DAY CUPCAKES!!! I changed my name BTW. Not that anybody cares :3 atleast i have a proper name now right? Im sorry just read...     ___       "Ms.Bae, wake up. It's 6 in the morning."   "Okay, Jarvis! I'm up I'm up."    Irene wakes up with Jarvis' pre-recorded voice. Jarvis is a computer/robot/servant invented by the Kangs. Jarvis is an all around servant. From security, chores, personal secretary. You name it, Jarvis has it. Techically, Jarvis is the house/manssion itself. A computer system managing everything.    "Slippers." Irene commands, eyes still half open.    A pair of slippers Appears from The bed's secret compartment.    "Thanks, Jarvis."    "You're welcome Ms.Bae."   "What's for breakfast?" Irene makes her way to the bathroom after being handed a towel by Jarvis.    "Mdm.Bae made pancakes and banana smoothie, Ms.Bae."   "Mom cooked?" Irene was surprised not because her mom made breakfast. It's just that it was usually Jarvis' job since it's early in the morning.    "Yes Ms.Bae. She said that she does not want fruits on her pancakes. What a shame, it's supposed to be her prescribed dietary food."   "Hahaha! Poor you. Don't worry, I love your pancakes. Don't tell mom though." Irene covers out of habbit before disappearing into her bathroom.    "Most certain Ms.Bae. "   ___   After shower, Irene makes her way downstairs. Irene saw her father with the ol' newspaper and coffee. She then remembers what her father said last night. 'You're ready' Irene stopped at her tracks and thinks about it.    "Hyunah, come and join me. Mom already left for US."   Irene snapped out. She must've look wierd staring at nothing.    "She's meeting Seulgi's parents right? Why so sudden?" Irene sat down with Seunghyeon.    "Seulgi's paprents need something for a paper work or something like that." Seunghyeon shrugs.    Irene just nods as was full of pancakes, cheeks puffed out in the process. Seunhyeon chuckles at her cute daughter.    "Dad, about last night." Irene said after taking a sip of her warm milk.    "Yeah, What is it?"    "What do you mean I'm ready? Ready for what?"    Seunghyeon put's his news paper down and looks at her daughter with a smile on his face.    "Ready to become a full pledged agent!" Seunghyeon said with arms widely spread in the air.    "*coughs* What?! *cough* *cough*" Irene chokes on her pancakes. Her father could only pat his daughter on the back.    "Take it easy, sweetheart. We're never running out of pancakes." He joked a little bit as he was feeling guilty dropping the bomb like it was nothing.    "Appa, don't you think im too young?" Irene huffed the words out as she just recovered from near death.    "Nonsense. Your grandpa got in the agency at the age of 16. I even got in at the age of 15!" Seunghyeon playfully elbowed Irene on her arm.    "But, dad~" Irene whines.    "What?" Seunghyeon raised his brows in confusion.    "I'm scared." Irene's hands were tightly clasped together on her lap as she keeps her eyes down.    Seunghyeon then takes a seat beside Irene and hugs her at the side.    "Don't be. You're skills are exceptional. You even broke my record! I'm not forcing you into this but please think about it." Seunghyeon rubbed Irene's arm which comforted the latter.   "...Okay." Irene finally said after a long pause from her.    "That's the spirit!"   "Does mom know?" Irene's eyes were back on his father's own pair.    "Yeah. She's really proud of you when I told her about your training. She's a crying mess!"They laughed for a good while, remembering how emotional Irene's mom could get.    "But dad, what's she really doing in the US?"   "Well... One of our foreign agents died in an accident. A couple to be exact." Seunghyeon stared at nothing as he explained.    "What does mom and the Kangs got to do with this?" Irene was a bit worried when she heard that her mother maybe involved about a death case but she relaxed when her father explained further.    "The couple was close to the Kangs. They had a daughter and the Kangs wanted to adopt her since nobody's gonna take care of her. They asked your mother's help for the adoption. I think she's the same age with Seulgi too."   "Adopt a girl? Same age as Seulgi?" Irene only registered these words out of all her father have said.    "Yeah, why?"   "N-Nothing..." Irene suspisciously stuttered.    Seunghyeon narrowed his eyes at his daughter.    "Okay... If you say so." Seunghyeon just decided not to probe further.    ___   Seulgi has a step sister now.    Same age as her to be exact.    She'll be with Seulgi everytime.    She'll have more time with Seulgi than me.    They'll surely get along well.    Is she pretty?    Wait what?   What am I thinking?   Seulgi said Im the pre
