Hunter’s p.o.v.
I looked at the paper which Claire dropped at the front seat to picture the map once again.
I was supposed to look out for a street named cottois, that’s where I’ll take my next turn.
Driving through the market was a bit satisfying as the noisy environment was a little therapeutic to my mental health.
It was obvious that Iris didn’t want to talk to me and I wasn’t going to force neither would I blame her. After her outburst earlier, I discovered that she had every reason to be angry at me.
Everyone involved in this had every reason to be pissed at my being.
But it only took an outburst for me to realize.
Lol… I really do deserve an award for the way I effortlessly mess up people’s lives.
Or make some lose theirs.
Mrs. Phoebe really didn’t deserve this for any reason, her only crime was knowing me.

Third person p.o.v.The ride was quiet enough, Meredith was done with the mind games.She needed to know if she was in danger or not but the man beside her seemed less bothered about her presence than actually having thoughts to kill her.At a point she was beginning to wonder if it was all a prank from someone or something because nothing seemed to be adding up.Or making sense.So, she decided to start the conversation.“They said my father was looking for me.” She started.The masked man beside her may have not heard her, or he pretended not to have.But he definitely did not gratify her with a response.‘he seemed so chatty earlier, what exactly would she have caused with her silence.’ She thought to herself but decided she should try again later.She was feeling quite sleepy, but she would mentally strike herself in the head if she even thought of closing her eyes in t

Hunter knew he had struck a nerve from her reaction when he stated his request all he wanted was her response.And assistance.“I don’t know what you’re talking about” she whispered with a tight smile, most likely trying not to make it obvious to any onlookers that she was in an uncomfortable conversation.“I was sent by Mr. Reid; I need your help.” He whispered back to her.She stared at him for a few seconds with narrow eyes and tight lips as she was trying to decipher if she should believe him or not.“Who are you?” she asked.Hunter remembered when Mr. Reid had informed him that this question was almost inevitable from her, and each party she worked with had a code answer to the question.“I am blue.”She eyes moved frantically around the café to be sure no one was observing nor approaching.“Ahh, Mr. Huong. The regular?”The greeti

He folded the blankets with his sleepy eyes and an unusual ache in his back.The ache didn’t surprise him, what else was he to expect from sleeping on a solid not-so comfortable couch all night.Iris took the room and he decided to sleep in the living room. It was either that or the floor of the room anyways so he really didn’t have much of a choice.He had a meeting with Mrs. Hao this morning. What he needed was a shower and a little breakfast which he presumed he can get at the café also.He arched his back a bit to know if he could get a crack that might release the ache but it was to no avail, so he just went ahead with his daily schedule.The door to the room was closed and he tried knocking to know if she was already up but not properly dressed or if she was sleeping.After the third knock, he heard her say‘its open’from the inside. Only then did he open the door.As he guessed

Mrs. Hao watched as anger rolled off his shoulders and she couldn’t help but laugh a little bit at his reactions.“You’re supposed to be in the back with the rest of the team.” She says to him with a smile on her lips as he jerks his head in her direction.“Yeah… I decided to give them some space to work on it.”There was a team of trackers that Mrs. Hao had brought in during the wee hours of the morning to help out with Hunter’s request.And so far, he had seen, they were amazing.“Or you decided to watch your girlfriend, which?” she said again with her smile growing wider.Hunter couldn’t help the grunt that escaped his lips when she made that statement.“She’s not my girlfriend.” He retorted and pretended to be wiping the table while stealing glances at Iris and her new friend.“I suspected; you guys have barely said a word to each oth

This was Santiago’s second day of following them and he feels now is the best time to bring in their daughter back to her parents but he wanted to stay a bit longer to know when they would be leaving the shop.The noon sunlight was a bit harsh to his skin and it prickled at his hair follicles but he bore it in good fate because inside the café was always cool so the discomfort was only temporary.Yesterday he wasn’t sure if it was disguise or adjustment to suit the plan but he never understood why Hunter served at the restaurant. It confused him.Hunter might not recognize who he was, after all he was recruited a year or two after Hunter had left… he wasn’t so sure.But he definitely knew who Hunter was, there wasn’t a person on the team who didn’t.One of Soldo’s favorite recruits that backstabbed him. That’s what they were all told that suited his description.They were all warned not

Hunter’s p.o.v.“Go check, it might be your reservation customer.” Mrs. Hao said as she looked to Hunter with and eye signal that read,I got this.They were currently trying to discover if they could fish out Claudette’s relatives with her pictures, details or anything else.They just wanted to discover if she could be tracked by any means.“The weirdo?” Tai asked, sipping a bottle of water to refresh herself as she had also had a long day in the café.“Yeah.” He replied her with a disturbed look on his face.This was far more important to him than serving a customer coffee for a date but he had to obey instructions.He picked up his apron from the side stool where he had abandoned it some minutes ago and went back into the restaurant.The fact the entire room looked slightly empty brought a relief to his mind.‘we&r

There was a gunshot in the air and soon enough everyone ran in haphazard directions to cover for safety.“Othniel!? Othniell!?” Meredith yelled out as she tried to take cover also.She crouched behind a shelf and was muttering silent prayers for the sake of her life and her safety. It wasn’t quite long before she felt a hand on her left shoulder and she jumped in fright but calmed her nerves after she saw it was the driver she had been looking for.“What’s going on? How do we get out of here???” she asked as her lips and arms were trembling.Othniel placed a finger on his lips and whispered a littleshhh“follow me”At first, she wondered where he thought he was headed but she wasn’t given enough time to wonder as he pulled her to her feet and ran into one of the dressing rooms.The moment they were in, he jammed the door shut behind them and began searching the entire

Iris p.o.v.Blankness…That was all I could use to describe what I was feeling at this point.Cause no nouns, no adjectives nor verb could describe what was going on with me.Not just with me, but with everyone else.The entire room was silent while the Judge prepared his verdict in the back room, the only voices you could hear was the muttering of a policewoman to Dylan trying to congratulate him with her words.“You did the right thing.”Her words sounded more like a consolation than an appraisal.Everyone knew it was the right thing, so why did it feel so wrong to me? Its been years and I never thought a day like this would actually ever come.Flashbacks from nights before kept re-occurring in my head, like possibly it was all a dream and someone would come wake me to ask “Are you okay?”But it seemed like everyone was also lost in the dream, in
