Chapter Eleven“Amelia Jessica Monteverde!” I heard Aunt Athena scream. I turned to see Jessy running away from her.I went to the comfort room for a minute and they’re already fighting?She grabbed my hand when she saw me. “What happened?” I asked her.“I thought we’re having a simple family lunch.” She said while pulling me outside the restaurant. I looked back and saw his brother Ethan following us. Her eyes were red.“Jessica wait!” Ethan reached Jessica’s arm.“No Ethan! My answer is still no!” She said and yanked her arm.“I will talk to Mom. Promise, it won’t happen again. Let’s go back please.” Ethan begged.Jessy didn’t listen to her brother and pulled me again.I heard Ethan calling us.“Jessy.” I called her.She opened her car.“Sorry you didn’t finish your lunch. Lets just eat somewhere.” She said.I nodded my head and did not talk. She looked so pissed.I wore my seatbelt.“Are you okay? I can drive.” I offered. Her hands are shaking.She shook her head and started the e

Runaway

Chapter TwelveIt's been a week since I last saw Jacob. Jessy said she gave my number to him but he didn't text or call me. Not that I want him to contact me or anything. I'm just curious, nothing more. "Cindy darling, Jessica's calling you." Fabio, Jessy's manager said. I looked at her on the runway. We're at some beach in Batangas. She's modeling for a lingerie clothing line tomorrow night. I hurriedly ran to her. "Yes Jessy?" I asked her. "Ethan texted me. They'll be here tonight! Oh my God!" She whispered but I can feel her excitement. As if this is the first time that Ethan will watch her modelling. "Who's with him? Your parents?" I asked. She rolled her eyes and grabbed my arms. Shaking me. "Jake! Jake will be here too! Aren't you excited?" She smiled and winked at me. Oh no. "Why did you invite him? Jessica!" I'm suddenly conscious. "Oh I did not invite him, girl. He asked me if you'll be here. How could I lie? You're always with me." Oh this girl. "Don't worry, I hav

A friend

Chapter Fifteen"Ms. Cindy." Eric handed a flash drive to me. I smiled and thanked him before starting my bike's engine. Yesterday was Calvin's birthday. Uncle threw a birthday party for him. He invited me to come but I declined again. Now is not the right time. I hid the flash drive in my leather jacket's pocket. Today's our meeting day for the plan that Sphinx and I discussed. I'm still not sure if Mamba's ready for her first mission. I don't want this plan to fail. I went straight to our hideout. Mamba was the first in the hideout when I arrived. She was at the firing range. "Hi Phoenix!" She put the gun on the table and approached me. "You're early." I said. I could say that her shooting skills sharpened. Based on the target holes. "I slept here for two days. I've been practicing a lot." She said proudly. "Good for you." I said and turned my back. I grabbed my bag that was hanging on my bike and walked in our makeshift gym. I felt her in my back. I unzipped my jacket.

Encounter

Chapter SixteenLindsey and I went to their house. It was a two storey house on a private beach in Zambales.“Nice place.” My eyes roamed around the house.Lindsey looked stressed already. “I moved here after I left the group.” She answered. “And Griffin? Err, I mean Adam. Where did you guys meet?” I asked.I still can't believe it's all just a coincidence. “We met at the orphanage. He was one of my friends when I was still there. You believe in puppy love?” She smiled bitterly. “He was my first love. He never knew that, I did not confess my feelings back then. We were so young. Luckily, he got adopted. We lost our communication after my graduation from high school. His adoptive family migrated to Vietnam with him. The orphanage management let me out after I turned eighteen. To make the long story short, we saw each other again after ten years. He was working that time as a senior programmer in an app developing company. I was a clerk there.” She continued. “He did not recognize me.

Against all odds

Chapter Seventeen"Are you alright Phoenix?" Sphinx asked. We're in the hideout now. We left Eagle and Griffin at the hospital. "I'm fine. It's just a scratch." I replied while cleaning my wound. "I have to go to the hospital. Do you need stitching?" He asked again. "Nah, I'm good." Mamba's watching me. Centaur arranged our things. "Good job guys. I'll be going. See you next week." Sphinx left us.This wound will leave a scar for sure. "That looks awful." Mamba said "And it stings." Centaur commented too. I need to hide this to Jessy. She will surely ask when she sees it. "I'll be sleeping here tonight. How about you Mamba?" Centaur asked. "Nope. I'll just wash up and go home." She answered. "Alright. Night guys." Centaur left us alone. "It's midnight. You should sleep here." I suggested. "Someone's waiting for me. I'm okay, don't worry." She said and sat beside me. I finished wrapping a bondage around my arms. I have to wear long sleeves for weeks. Damn. Mamba left too

Trust

Chapter NineteenJacob and I were just texting each other the whole trip from La Union Province. Jessy asked Fabio for a driver this time. She always wants to sleep whenever the trip is long. I volunteered to drive for us but she did not agree. We’re using her customized van so it was easy for her to sleep because it has a queen size bed installed in here.‘I thought you have a meeting today?’ I texted.‘Yeah. I'm in the middle of a meeting right now.’ He replied.What? And he’s still replying to my texts?I did not text him back and checked the CCTV footage of my Uncle’s house.My brothers were swimming in the pool.“Who are they?” I almost dropped my phone because of shock. “Jessica!” I hissed at her and returned my phone inside my pocket.“Why? Who are the kids?” She asked again.“Don’t scare me like that! That was nothing. Just a video clip on facebook.” I excused.“Ohh, okay. Where are we now?” She asked. “I think we are just two hours away from Manila.” I answered and gave her
