I checked the rifle that I'm holding. I already emptied two magazines but I want to shoot more.

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.

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.

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

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

Chapter Twenty One “Let us all pray before we eat. Ms. Cindy please lead the prayer.” Sister Maria gave the mic to me.I accepted it and went to the middle of the makeshift stage.“Okay. Let’s bow down our heads. In the name of the father, and of the son, and of the holy spirit. Lord, thank you for the meal that we are about to eat. Please help us always to remember the needs of others who don't have as much as us. Lord forgive us for all our sins. We pray and give thanks through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen." I opened my eyes. I was overwhelmed with this emotion that I can't put into words. The smiles of the children were contagious. "Okay kids, attack!" I said laughing. I looked around to see Jacob helping Isaac to open his juice pack. With a smile, he gave the juice pack to the boy and gave him a high five. "The kids like him." Sister Maria said. We were both looking at them. "This is the first time I saw him with kids." I said, not leaving my eyes away from the scene. "I sa

Chapter Forty EightFive years later."Jake please, stop working at home!" Jessica crossed her arms in front of me.She's pouting her lips like a brat that she is."I won't go to the party Jessica. I have an appointment tomorrow to Calvin's guidance councilor." I said and massaged the side of my head.Calvin got into a fight again the other day.I sighed as I remember his reason.'I won't stop fighting until Ate comes back!'Calvin's the hard headed one of the three of them."OMG! Where is that boy?! I'll talk to him!" Jessy sat on my table."Calen was talking to him when I left his room. Give the child a break. I understand him." I said and shut off my laptop."You're so soft with him! Cindy won't like to see him be like her!" She insisted."She should not have left him if that's what sh

I whispered as I hugged them."Congrats Ate." Calen said.I nodded and faced them.I pinched Calvin's rosy cheek."I miss you all."I let every person in the room greet me before they go. I felt like I was in cloud nine because of their presence.My team were the last visitors.Jacob didn't let go of my hand as Centaur and Sphinx walked to me."Phoenix. Phoenix." Centaur shook her head as he reached my hand and kissed the top of it. "You really arise from the ashes." Centaur smirked."Thank you Centaur. I don't know how to repay you in this lifetime." I smiled at him."Then pay me in your next life."
