Summary: Park Byung Soo does not like Kang Mo Yeon and yet he envy that bastard Captain Yoo. 

Park Byung Soo love being in power. He absolutely love having a higher power position then Yoo Shi Jin that curd bastard of a pup. 

When he received the position as Battalion commander he enjoy the respect that was granted by those underneath him. He like that he could tell those men that didn't do a good job to run laps around the military base as punishment and a self satisfaction since he couldn't exactly beat that Captain Yoo looks.

Byung Soo has fought and crawled his way up the ladder. He always had a conception to avoid liability and responsibilities so that his record would be spotless. He had a goal he wanted to be a General and perhaps have a brilliant and hot wife as a spouse that would earn him recognition and political clout in the army. 

Yet he was jealous of Captain Yoo that was below him in ranks. That absurd man that got into West Point and even strutted around and always bringing him headaches such as disregarding the rules of letting other military to take care of dangerous portion of their missions. Instead always on the front line to even disarming the mines in Uruk. 

NO matter how much he tells that dumb man to stop it the guy seem to derive pleasure in spoiling his plans for advancement. However, when news of Yoo Shi Jin and Seo Dae Young came as kill in action he couldn't say that he wasn't stumped. 

The bane of his existence was gone...the feeling of dissatisfaction came along with a small factor of grief. Byung Soo realize that his comrades as he now consider them wouldn't be there to give him grief. He didn't know what to say and the worse part was everyone knew about Captain Yoo's supposed girlfriend. 

He never did like Kang Mo Yeon or Doctor Kang as he refer to her. Yet he did admire that she is a strong woman and he could see her appeal. Byung Soo could admit he was envious that Seo Dae Young and Yoo Shi Jin had doctor girl friends and that they were quite pretty. He would admit he daydreams of being with Yoon Myung Joo since she was the Generals daughter, but he knew the rumors of the transfers of Dae Young and the constant hassles going on. He would be inviting more headaches if he did date that woman.

Now both his pain in the asses were dead and he was just glad he wasn't the one breaking the news to Myung Joo. He had seen that woman hit men before even if they are higher rank. Byung Soo didn't know how close the relationship was between Doctor Kang and Shi Jin.

Byung Soo never enjoyed the part of meeting the families to significant loves of men that died underneath him. It would be painful watching their grief and dealing with it. He had been yelled at before when he announce to a widow of her husbands death. 

The black eye he bared with in the face of her grief. Now he wasn't sure on Doctor Kang's reaction instead like a coward he sent Sergeant Choi in hopes that a familiar face would help her.  

The announcement from the teammate of Alpha Team to his subordinates and the fast pace grapevine of the army immediately arrived quickly on her reaction. 

The words passed on from Sergeant Choi were... 

"I thought I would never consider Doctor Kang as able to have emotions when it comes to our Captain Yoo. I was wrong. I watch her eyes fill with tears and inwardly I felt like crying. Even though she is a pushy woman that drove me nuts during Uruk and caused Captain a lot of trouble. I can see that her feelings for our Captain is sincere. I acknowledge that she is a sister in law even though she isn't married to Captain Yoo. I grieve with her but all I could do is stand there and watch after I handed over the letter. I regret--that I could have been a good friend for her in Uruk if I was then I could hold her and let her cry. I feel I failed our Captain in this regard."

Byung Soo didn't know what to do he would be heading to see Doctor Kang at her address. Shi Jin had updated her address as to those that are alerted to his demise. The other was his father and Byung Soo knew that Mr. Yoo was the only one left in that small family of his. His wife passed on and now his son he could imagine the pain that must be going through anyone that is a parent of a child that was lost in war. 

The military was cruel in the sense of not acknowledging the contribution of soldiers that did black operations. They have to make up information to justify the deaths. It was painful. However, Yoo Shi Jin wanted Mo Yeon to know what happen to him. 

To do that he need to have her sign a NDA a non-disclosure agreement , also known as a confidentiality agreement so that he can release information to her and to prevent any information to be leaked out. 

Byung Soo sat in the living room and view the pale face of Doctor Kang her eyes were wet and filled with tears. He wasn't sure how she would take the information. "A week from today, we will make an official announcement that Sergeant Major Dae Young and Captain Yoo Shi Jin will have died in a car accident during a training exercise." He set the clipboard with the NDA in front of Doctor Kang, her hand tighten in her lap. Continuing in a soft voice he said, "We need you to sign a Non Disclosure Agreement. We ask for your cooperation." 

The tear slid down Mo Yeon face and he felt his throat bunch up. He was trained never to make a woman cry, but already he knew that there was an injustice asking a civilian to sign after she is suffering through grief. 

It was too soon, but to prevent security leaks and goodness knows what Shi Jin told her.  

Mo Yeon voice came out snapping his focus, "Did his death...help save any lives?

"Yes. It did." Byung Soo straighten himself and said with conviction. This woman deserve respect for what her lover provided.

Mo Yeon voice came again, "Did his death...help to preserve peace in a certain area?"

Byung Soo nods, "Yes, it did." Whatever, Captain Yoo and his partner in crime went they always ensure that someone was save and there was peace by their actions.

"Did his death...serve his country?" Mo Yeon voice came almost like a breeze.

"Yes. He did." Was all Byung Soo could reaffirm.

The sharpness of Mo Yeon words cut into him next, "And yet his country requires me to sign this paper."

Swallowing hard his Adams apple bobbed at the pain in her voice, "I apologies."

The tears started to flow and he could only watch over her doing his duty, "What is it with you? Why choose a life...with an end like this? Why are even your deaths secret?" Her fingers shook as she picked up the pen and lean forward, "I hope that what I am about to do...is what you'd want me to do. Captain Yoo."

Watching her sign the document and crying like a widow, broke something in Byung Soo. Her words defined the bond that she held with the decease soldier, no his comrade and he wonder if one day--would he finde a woman of such standing. Would he also be placing her in such a position? 

Could he sent another like him in his place to inform his future spouse of his demise. He could say he envy Captain Yoo. This doctor was a powerful and beautiful woman and he understood why that man before defended her. Protected her with his utmost abilities. 

Byung Soo acknowledge the love in between the two. Captain Yoo was willing to blacken his record for this woman. He was willing to disobey command and the blue house just to save this woman. He acknowledge the sacrifices that this man did in the face of love. 

AND-now he acknowledge the sacrifice and the chains that the military put upon a strong woman as Kang Mo Yeon and yet he respected her because she understood in a way what they work for...and he hope to find someone like her.

Willing to accept what they had to do...and what may occur. 

Bowing after taking the NDA he slowly stood, he gesture for his man and handed over the NDA and presented a notebook with phone numbers. "If you need anything--that we can provide...inside possess my number and Captain Yoo Shi Jin's team. Salute!" He then face the door and could hear the sobbing coming from behind him but he left one foot in front of another. 

To give the woman privacy. 

Byung Soo didn't mention inside the notebook also had information of where Captain Yoo last mission was...in hopes to give the woman closure.

He clenches his teeth as he sat in the car, he had provided that tidbit to her and even gave some leeway to Alpha Team to tell her information on how Captian Yoo died. He didn't want to do it, he wasn't that close to Doctor Kang or Captain Yoo but he also wanted to ensure that the team would look after this widow, because that is what Mo Yeon was...a Widow of a honorable man.
