Suitcase
5:40 in the morning, standing at the departure area with Chris. He is wearing sunglasses to hide the bruises in his left eye.
“You can leave me now Chris.” I can see his eyes falling, I am not sure if he even take a nap. After he brought Brian to old building he told me to go home and pack my luggage for the business trip.
“I have to make sure whose traveling with you.” Rubbing his eyes, I put my hands in his face feeling his rough face cause by the little hair that is growing in his face again.
“You are hot, you must take a rest.” He lean his face closer, for a quick seconds my heart is pounding so fast again. I was looking straight to his green eyes and his dry lips with bruise. My muscle pushes my body closer to him and our lips were touching each other.
“I guess that was a good bye kiss.” Those cold words from Frank put my head back to its consciousness.
“Good morning Frank” as he shak

…sweat is slowly traveling down my face and my eyes are getting dry, one blink and I might miss some details. All I can hear is my own breathing and the sound of interrupted frequency on my ear piece. “Shoot it”, ten minutes had passed since I heard that command. “What the hell are you doing? Shoot…” Before he had finished his word I had planted that bullet straight to that man’s temple. And the entire policeman came to secure the place.Just as how fast that bullet travels, I found myself inside this hotel room. I need to take a shower and maybe get some sleep. The warm water touching my skin is not enough to calm my trembling muscles, “first man down and more to come.” I keep on saying that to myself. I try to wash my face maybe it could erase the image of blood flowing out of that man’s head a while ago. I washed and washed my face.“Not bad for a first shot” as he offer me a clean towel. &ldq

2:15 in the afternoon, I finally get inside the plane. Getting new hair color makes me feel like a different person. The plane is about to take off but I haven’t find the man in the picture. James said he will drop me call but all I got is a disposable device full of instruction and burst out after he had just finished talking. He gave me a ring to serve as a tracker and communication device to him and a pile of documents to read. The plane is starting to get off the ground; I suddenly miss my old pillow and my mother’s cookie. He said this will be a long project, when will I can get home?“I think he ordered you to find someone, but looks like you fail” a low tone voice from the man beside me. I started to turn my head and saw a bearded man in his brown leather coat paired with old moss green scarf.“I guess he showed you a picture from years ago. Thank God, that eye color didn’t change as we age.” He took off his sun glasses

…the smell of a roasted coffee awakens every cell that I have. I look around and found myself inside a modern furnish room with red and white interior. I try to remember the last scene that my head can recall. Suddenly the door crack open and I saw the bearded man in his white shirt and boxer short. My eyes took time staring at the shadow behind his athlete legs.“Good morning Kate, coffee to freshen you up.” , he hand me a cup and he sit at one corner of the bed.“I haven’t introduced myself formally. But I guess you had read my profile, on daily basis from now on you should call me Z, Zander Gray is my name. And you are Jane Gray. We are married my dear”I almost spit off the coffee and I gave him a puzzled look.“Why? Is the coffee not good? Or you don’t want to be married with a bearded man?” he laugh and his eyes get serious as he look at my shocked face “You did not do your assignment didn

I could hear the phone ring, but my body is too tired to move, even my eyes are too heavy to look. One...two...three... and the phone stop ringing. Even without opening my eyes I can feel that there is somebody approaching me. Then I felt a warm object touches my skin, I grab it and I could feel the force at the other edge. I release my grip and I could hear the sound of a falling body on the floor. Heading to the person covered with white blanket on the ground, I grab the other edge of the cloth and roll it over his head… “S...top” a voice from the person inside the blanket. That voice get me into my senses again, I loosen up and uncover him. I saw Zander choking in his breath; his beard cannot hide the redness of his face. I feel a sleep while waiting for his return, a poor man I think he was trying to put blanket over me.“I’m sorry, it was my muscle memory that does that violence...” helping him get into sofa, his shoulder moves

Monday, 7 am I woke up and saw the table was done and Z was putting the two cups of coffee on the table.“Good morning Z” and I sat down and took a sip. I don’t know if I’m hungry or what but the coffee taste so good. I hold the cup and smell it again.“Good morning my dear wife, shouldn’t you be the one who needs to do the cooking?” smiling at me“I’m sorry; I will try it next time. You make a good coffee though.” And I took another sip“Thank you, I worked as a barista for 3 years in Italy.” And he winked. He put an egg and ham on my plate, “You should eat a lot, today is your first day at work”I almost forgot, I need to report at the office for my first day of work as an accountant to a local firm. Maybe the reason why they choose me is because aside from killing, I took accountancy course back then. And not to brag but I passed the board exam and was planning t

We found ourselves in a middle of a forest and few steps away were an old bungalow stand.“This job is full of surprise” I laugh while heading toward the house“Don’t women like surprises?”“I do, I am not sure of the majority.” We get inside the bungalow, with almost everything covered with white cloth.“Who lives in here?” I was left with no answer as he headed straight to the living room. He lifts the wooden floor “Let’s finish this early so we can dine with Ana.” And we went down on the basement.This is exactly what I saw on the monitor minus the foul odor from all the body secretion from the man tied on his chair. Zander turn on the lights and I can see the tied man clearly. Though sitting, I guess he is about 5feet 6 inches tall with fair skin and a Spanish look. The man slowly opens his eyes and screams with it.“I guess you’re hungry Ricky” He

She gave me a weird stare as she looks into the sleeves I am wearing“Someone spill a spaghetti on my shirt, that’s why I am wearing this” I could feel my face blush a bit as I try to explain myself to the old lady. She smile brightly and grab my hand.“I’m sorry to hear that, come look at this dress will fit you perfectly”, showing me a beautiful mint green free flowing dress.“Put it on” Zander said “You have a good taste Madame.” Looking at the old lady.“I remember my husband use to grow beard just like you, come and I will show you a sleeve to pair your wife.&rdqu
