Silhouette

"We just need to distract them to attend the press, we're free to enter their hideout before they arrive," Third said coldly.

We all listened intently to what he had to say. This is the only place where it becomes talkative, I'll try.

I looked at Pow Pow who was in the other room while playing. There was only a mirror between the meeting room so I could see him freely.

He looked up at me before waving while smiling. I nodded.

"I'll let the three of you handle the three senators," he said as he turned to know Chios, Flame and Athelia.

Third turned to Cassiopeia and Perseus side by side. "Back them up."

Five of them saluted Third so I smiled, they always looked excited in the fight.

"You'll arrive first in their hideout, make sure no one will see us," he instructed Alpha and Thunder.

The two fools grinned and saluted. "Leave it to us, leader!"

My smile immediately widened when Third turned to me. I'm still applauded.

"Yes, what?" I asked excitedly.

"You'll come with me again," he promised, so I frowned.

The mixture of his face seemed to go along with my reaction. "What? Do you have a complaint?"

I immediately shook. "No, boss, it's really stupid, you're too thoughtful. I'm really happy to be with you."

I hesitantly patted his shoulder even though I didn't really want to be with him.

We're already there. He's handsome, but shameless, I can't enjoy it! I might just shake my rectum every few seconds.

I saw him turn to Pow Pow before looking back at me.

"He'll come with us." I looked up.

"Yes?" I will ask.

"That kid, he'll come with us too." My eyes widened at what he said.

"What? Pow Pow is coming with us? Why ?!" my hysterical cry.

The corner of his lip lifted. "We need to act as his parents, in that way, they'll never notice our intention."

My forehead furrowed. "Huh? Let's get married? That would be okay, because I'll crush you. But is Pow Pow with you?"

"He'll act as our son, Silhouette. Their hideout is inside the amusement park, you don't need to tell him that it's part of our mission." I just lost my temper in no time.

It's really different for my boss to think, it seems like he's going too far. He just needs to fly his plans to another country.

I was forced to nod. I can't do anything because he's the boss here.

Why isn't Caspeia with him anymore? Wait, shet, it's not possible. It hurts the eyes to see that witch next to my baby.

"Just a joke, boss, I'm really willing. You still, you're strong to me," I said smiling.

He no longer answered. He just stood up. "Prepare yourself for tonight, and dress casually."

They were all still talking so I was bored so I just sat down and leaned back.

I was still uncomfortable in my seat when the cellphone in my pocket rang. I opened an unknown message and read its contents.

2 years, living freely without them, Acid.

The smile disappeared from my lips before clenching my fist. They still don't really stop.

I looked away again when my cell phone rang for the second time.

They all died because of you, Acid.

My grip on the chair tightened as my heart pounded. I quickly wiped away the tears that dripped down my cheeks but they were replaced by new ones.

"I'm so-sorry, I'm just going somewhere s-awhile," I nodded goodbye to Delta before standing up.

I don't want them to see me cry. I don't want to be weak.

I bit my lip when I felt Third pull on me. He turned me towards him in a direction that Delta could not see.

He looked surprised when he saw me crying so I quickly avoided it.

"P-Please," I almost hoarsely promised.

He stared at me first before releasing my hand. I hurriedly ran away from them.

I don't know why my feet carried me up to the rooftop of headquarters. Maybe I need to talk to them. I just want to unwind.

Weakly I sat down before looking up at the sky.

I bit my lower lip to refrain myself from sobbing. But my tears were treacherous because I did not know how to obey.

I quickly wiped away my tears while sobbing.

"I'm so-sorry," I whispered while looking up at the sky.

"I was an agent back then, but I didn't save you, I am so s-sorry that you guys need to end up dead. If only I could, I would have just died with you all," I sobbed.

I tapped my chest to lose that weight. But every time I think about how worthless I am, my body and emotions spontaneously give up.

"If only I came back home from school, I hope I'm with you there. I used to be kind, so I'll go to heaven, now I'm going straight to hell. Because I am a w-worthless woman, I am useless. How can I save anyone from danger when I can't save my loved ones? "I promised bitterly.

I took a deep breath. "Give me more time to figure out who killed you, guys. Give me more time, I am so close. And after knowing the truth, after giving the justice you guys deserved, I'll take my own life to be with you. "

"Ate?"

I turned my back when I heard Pow Pow.

"Pow," I promised almost in a whisper.

"Why are you crying, sister?" he asked tearfully before giving me a hug.

I cried even more because of what he did.

"Don't cry anymore, sister. I'm not used to seeing you like that, aren't we partners, can you tell me why you're crying," she said crying as she hugged me tightly.

I bit my lower lip before smiling in no time.

Maybe not now.
