It's been already two weeks since Gabriella started living with her husband. Now, she's also back to work. Tumanggap sya ng panibagong misyon dahil dalawang linggo na ang nakalipas simula nang huli silang nagkita ni Silent Thief sa kaniyang apartment. Magmula noon ay hindi na ito muling nagparamdam pa.Sa dalawang linggong nakalipas ay palaging ang asawa nya ang nagluluto ng pagkain nila kaya gusto nyang matuto kung paano gawin iyon para naman hindi ito ang palaging nagluluto."So you finished your mission in less than 20 minutes para magbasa ng libro tungkol sa pag-aaral kung paano magluto? You want to impress your husband that much?" Nakataas ang kilay na tanong ni Quel na halatang gusto lang syang asarin."Shut up, Quel." Gabriella hissed.She wants to learn how to cook not because she wants to impress someone—specifically, her husband, but because she just want to learn how to make herself useful sa loob ng bahay."I just want to help at home and that's all." she answered simply.

It was weekend. Gabriella finished her new mission in a blink of an eye so she arrived at home early.Hanggang ngayon ay wala paring paramdam si Silent Thief kaya ang palagi nyang ginagawa ay humingi ng ibang misyon. Pero katulad ng dati ay lahat ng ito ay sobrang dali lang para sakanya.She's the top secret agent after all. Walang salitang mahirap para sakaniya pagdating sa misyon, maliban sa pagluluto ng pagkaing bahay.A SIMPLE GUIDE TO COOK MENUDOIngredients:•2 lbs. pork shoulder sliced into small cubes•1 piece Knorr Pork Cube•4 ounces pork liver cubed•1 piece baking potato cubed•3 pieces hotdogs sliced crosswise into thin pieces•1 can tomato sauce 8 oz.•1 piece carrot cubed•1/2 cup raisins•2 pieces dried bay leaves•2 tablespoons soy sauce•1 teaspoon ground ginger•1 piece yellow onion chopped•4 cloves garlic crushed•3 tablespoons cooking oil•2 to 4 cups water•Salt and ground black pepper to tasteKasalukuyan syang nagluluto sa may kusina habang suot-suot ang apron

The next day...A loud thud was heard after Gabriella shut the door of Quel's office."Totoo bang nagparamdam na ulit si Silent Thief?" tanong nya pagkalapit sa lamesa ng kaibigan.Ramdam ni Quel ang pagmamadali nito kaya bago sumagot ay hinayaan nya muna itong kumalma."Yeah. Just like before, he hacked the police computer data to tell his next target. The warning is authentic because there's a blue roses beside it. But I really think that he already gave up on the painting because his next target now is a jewel."Gabriella smirked. It doesn't matter if Silent Thief has a new target. As long as she can catch him with her own hands, she doesn't mind what he's going to steal next. She's been waiting for this day to come. She's been waiting for Silent Thief to make a move again.This time, she would make sure to catch him. Pinapangako nyang huhulihin nya ito gamit ang sariling kamay nya.##A diamond necklace that is worth million of dollars. Ito ang bagong target ni Silent Thief.Dahil

Gabriella's birthday is coming.Pagkatapos ng kaniyang klase ay dumiretsyo si Ryce sa mall para bumili ng ireregalo sa asawa.Pinag-isipan nyang mabuti kung ano ang bibil'hin dahil ito ang first birthday gift na ibibigay nya dito. The woman didn't know that he's Silent Thief, and she also doesn't know that he knew she is working as a secret agent with a code name, Angel.Aaminin ni Ryce na kahit papaano ay naging close sya sa asawa. He see her as a friend kaya naman gusto nya itong regaluhan.Pagkatapos bumili, pumasok sya sa may national bookstore para maghanap ng pwedeng idagdag sa ireregalo.He forgot to ask his wife what her favorite genre is kaya naglibot-libot sya. Hanggang sa makita nya ang title ng isang libro na naka caught ng kaniyang attention.It's a book written by Nicholas Sparks, triggering a memory from a long time ago.[flashback~]Ryce's POV"Nandito na tayo!"My classmate, Ben, informed us with his jolly voice at pumunta sa harapan namin.

Biglang napakurap sa nabasa si Gabriella at inulit itong basahin ng lima pang beses para masigurong hindi sya nagkakamali sa nabasa.She was about to reply yes, pero naisip nyang magkikita lang rin naman sila mamaya sa bahay kaya sinabi nyang kung pupunta lang naman ito sa bar para sakanya ay 'wag na at hintayin nalang sya sa bahay.After chatting with his husband on the phone, muli nyang sinamahan sina Jewel at Quel sa dance floor.##It was 11:15 pm nang magpasya silang tatlo na umuwi. Bago sumakay sa kani-kanilang kotse ay mahigpit na niyakap sya ng dalawa at muling binati."I want to spend more time with you but I can't do that because your husband is waiting for you..." ani Jewel habang nakatabas pababa ang nguso.Halatang lasing na ito dahil namumula ang dalawang pisngi ng kaniyang pinsan. Sa kanilang tatlo ay ito ang pinakamabilis malasing. Gabriella is worried about her cousin kaya nakiusap sya sa kaibigan na isabay ito dahil alam nyang hindi ito makakapagdrive ng maayos.Quel
