My Hitman System

After having their lunch Jin and Diana were once again walking around the nearby park to pass their time while. However, unlike before they were holding each other's hands. Clearly, They were much more emotionally invested in each other compared to last week.

"By the way Jin…" Diana paused to attract Jin's attention.

"Hmm?" Jin turned towards her with an inquisitive gaze.

"Can you tell me how your parents were?... I've been wanting to ask you this for a long time but I always chickened out not wanting to make you feel uncomfortable," Diana said with an unsure expression on her face.

"There's nothing to feel uncomfortable about and since I already know so much about your family it's only right for you to know about mine as well," Jin said.

Diana's unsure expression faded away after hearing Jin's response.

Jin continued, "So…how should I start…I spent most of my time with my mother so let me start with her. She was a kind lady…though the majority of my memory is filled with her disciplining me rather than loving me because of how naughty I was back then…

Diana chuckled when she heard that.

Jin shook his head while smiling after seeing her response and continued, "Her scoldings laced with the love she had for me still resonates clearly in my mind…I still vividly remember how I used to sleep on her neck while she narrated fairy tales to me…I miss her."

Jin sighed.

'If only I could go back in time…' Jin thought with an anguished heart. (A/N: holding my urge to make him reincarnate and destroy my novel)

Seeing Jin like this Diana squeezed his hand in the hope that her presence could give him some solace.

Jin noticed this gesture and moved his hand a little and interlocked his fingers with hers. A warm feeling rose in both their hearts as a result of this.

"What about your father?" Diana asked after a few seconds of comfortable silence.

"Although his interactions with me were brief since he was always devoted to his work those brief moments were enough to convey the deep-rooted fatherly love he held towards me… I always remembered him whenever things got tough for me during my struggling days in the slums…on how he used to go on a few days with almost negligible sleep just to finish his work…even though he was no longer here his presence had continued to push me…" Jin recalled.

Diana listened to Jin without interrupting. It was rare for him to speak so much since he was the type who preferred to bottle up his emotions as a result she couldn't get enough of him no matter how much she heard.

'I wish I could listen to him all my life like this,' A thought appeared in her mind making her blush all of a sudden.

"So that's all about my parents. Did it satisfy your curiosity?" Jin finally finished with what he wanted to say and asked her.

"Yes…yes it did," Diana replied.

"It's been a while since I deliberately thought back on these things so thank you for that. I feel a bit refreshed," Jin said.

"I'm always ears, share whatever you want with me whenever you want," Diana smiled back at him.

"I'll keep that in mind," Jin said with an insincere smile. There will always be some things he could never share with her.

Jin had been noticing Diana bending down to press her calves a bit from time to time so he suggested now that the conversation topic was over.

"I guess we have walked enough, let's rest somewhere," Jin suggested as he looked around for seats.

"Yeah, let's do that," Diana said in an embarrassed manner.

They approached the nearest bench they could find. A weird expression formed on their faces when they realized that it was the same bench on which they had sat the previous time.

"I guess it's fate," Diana chuckled and sat down.

"It does seem like that…I hope we don't encounter that annoying kid today," Jin remarked.

"Why do you plan to do it again?" Diana replied out of reflex but soon turned her head away in embarrassment when she realized what she had said.

"You don't?" Jin teased her.

"I-" Diana didn't know how to reply to him and just avoided eye contact with Jin.

Jin laughed at her seeing this. The tension that was required to proceed with the act just wasn't there today. So they just chatted about a few miscellaneous stuff before getting up.

"So where should we go next?" Jin asked.

"Next?..." Diana asked with insecurity. She had thought that they would return home now.

"What? Are you tired already?" Jin teased her in a provocative manner.

A few hours later Jin was staring at Diana in a defeated manner while having snacks with her at a fast food restaurant.

Diana was savouring her ice cream and looked at Jin who looked dead tired.

"What? Are you tired already?" She slapped him back with the same words he had used against her. It was clear that she held a grudge against him for that.

'I shouldn't have provoked her…' Jin thought to himself. They had been going around the city market for hours and he had transformed from her boyfriend to a bag holder during that time period.

"...there's still more?" Jin asked with dismay. Acting tough would only increase his suffering so he asked out what was there in his mind.

Diana chuckled seeing this.

"Just kidding. We're done for the day," She stuck her tongue out.

"Finally…" Jin sighed in relief.

"You're over exaggerating right? Was it so exhausting?" Diana couldn't help but ask.

"You wouldn't be saying that if you were carrying all these bags by yourself," Jin said while squinting his eyes at her.

"You look so cute when you're angry," Diana teased when she saw this. This was the first time she had seen him so irritated.

Jin just took a deep breath to calm himself and ignored her.

Seeing this Diana changed the topic, "So…you liked the shirts I bought for you?"

"...I did," Jin responded. It was the first time he had been gifted something by someone other than his parents so he appreciated it.

"That's good, you usually prefer clothes with monotonous colours so I deliberately bought some lively coloured ones. Send me your pics when you wear them got it?"

"Sure," Jin replied.

After the snacks were over Jin dropped Diana to her home before returning to the hotel in the same cab.

Time passed.

With the film shooting reaching the crucial stages Jin's schedule started becoming more and more busy with the shooting time becoming more erratic and at times even lasting till midnight.

This prevented Jin from meeting Diana every week but he still met her whenever he could and gave her father a visit along with her.

They became more intimate with each other over time as gentle touches and kisses became their natural way of expressing the love they had for each other. The long separation periods also played a role and made the two more expressive about their passion.
