章 62: You're Late (2)

As soon as Daewon announced his coming, Seok discharged himself after stating his leave. Sungho walked forward without assistance, decreasing his distance to Daewon before he parted his lips and asked a query to his late appearance. Wonder overlaid his supposedly serious and impatient tone: "What took you so long?" 

In a harmonized moment, the young soldier appeared shaken as he stiffened from his situate. There was no expression on his face yet his eyes were shot straight to Sungho's. "You looked excited when you saw me."

When the emotion he unfolded a while ago clustered in his consciousness, Sungho exhaled abruptly. It was not his intention to appear excited. Following the release of a cough, he asserted, "Seok didn't want to leave while you're gone. He's not obeying my command to take a rest. He worked overtime."
