CHAPTER 26—Where To Go?Rain's point of viewFor the last few days, I have been thinking about La Arma Countryspy. Just thinking about being the one in charge makes my head hurt. Even if it is said that Ali will help me, it is still different when I have knowledge of such a business. Too delicate and complicated."Hey! You've been an idiot for a while!" said Azariah while we were in the garden. Aliona was with us but took food from the kitchen.I immediately smiled at her. No one can know about the secret agency or our grandmother's business."I was just thinking about when we're going home.""You want to go home? Don't you want to be here?" she asked.I looked at the plants. "It's not that I don't want to be here, Azariah. Of course, our house is there. My parents and I live there."She nodded. "But this ancestral house is yours. It's your house.""Yes, but you and Auntie Merceditas are living here too." I turned around.My cousin sat down. "Wait. Do you mean it's okay with you that
CHAPTER 27Rain's Point of ViewOur car STOPPED at a five storey building where, even from the outside, it is obvious that the construction is modern. The wall is made of glass but because of the blinder, you can't see what's inside.Ali's car door opened to me almost gaping in awe of the place. My hair was still welded and you immediately pulled it out."This place is beautiful. But why does it seem like we are in the middle of the forest?" I frowned at the question because when we were on our way here, I noticed that this place is remote. There are many trees and I can even see mountains.This is also the only building here and there is nothing else standing around. It has a high fence at the highest part, there is an electric cable where there is a sign that the electricity is active there."It's up to me to explain. Let's go."I followed Ali when he walked. I noticed the guards with different maroon uniforms. It's not like what the police or soldiers wear, but it's obvious that th
CHAPTER 28Rain's Point of ViewI'm speechless. It seems that the information they provide does not enter my mind. They also invited me around to familiarize myself with things inside the headquarters."Uncle Elmer came here yesterday, ah!" We were the only cousins on the rooftop while Brent and Ali were talking to someone on the 5th floor. Gianna invited me here so we could breathe fresh air. It's already evening and the view from here is also beautiful."Is this where they went with Ali?"She nodded. "Yes.""What is Daddy's position here?""Nothing. He only visited because he wanted to know what kind of business your abuela left you."I faced her. "Gianna, I'm going to tell you. I don't know anything about these things. I can't help you and I don't know what to do in running a business like this."She smiled. "Don't worry. I'm here. Ali is also Uncle Elmer. Even though your daddy doesn't have a position here, that doesn't mean he doesn't know anything about this. I think your daddy
CHAPTER 29Rain's Point of ViewI tormented Dad and looked at Ali with a smile on his face. "You know, I think it will be good if I can squeeze your wounds! You're annoying!" I said.Ali seems to have lost blood because of what I said. "D-don't."I just sat in the waiting area while my father settled the bill. Ali is still in the wheelchair and just looking at me."What are you staring at?" I asked flatly.He averted his gaze. "N-nothing." Bow down more.I made him suffer again. "You're so stubborn. Do you think you can rest at home?"He met my gaze. "Do you think I can protect you if I'm here and you're at home?" His eyes were wide as he looked directly at me.That question seemed like a warm hand caressing my heart. He seemed to dissolve the annoyance he felt. I bent down and sighed. I met his gaze."Ali...""I hope you understand my reason why I want to go home. When I'm here, I won't be able to act properly. I'll always worry about you."I approached him and held his hand. Now I u
CHAPTER 30Rain's Point of ViewEXCEPT while cooking, I turned on my phone and let the songs on it play. I still occasionally sing while cutting cookies. I thought of just cooking chicken curry because it's easy to cook and that's what Ali's kitchen has.I also sieved the rice to cook the dish later, we now have rice. We spent the night in the hospital earlier and now, it's seven in the morning. That's why I'm yawning. I feel sleepy.I even screamed when I felt the sharp knife cut my finger. I immediately let go of the knife I was holding and went to the sink to wash the bleeding wound.When it stopped bleeding, I immediately went back to what I was doing. A few moments later I was sauteing chicken.That's when I noticed Ali coming out of his room. "Have you rested?" I asked him.He nodded but his eyes were on what I was doing. "You alright?""Y-yeah." I quickly hid the injured finger."Are you sure? It's like I heard a scream. I wondered how you were."I smiled. "Maybe you just made
CHAPTER 31Rain's Point of ViewI WAKE UP to a light hand caressing my cheek. I immediately smiled when I saw that it was Ali. He is wearing different clothes but his arm is still bandaged. I slowly got up and sat on the bed."You just got home?" I asked him."A while ago. I already took a shower."I frowned. "How did you take a bath if you had a wound on your arm? Who helped you?""Just me! I can do that alone.""Are you sure?""Yes.""Okay. How is your schedule? Any news?" I asked remembering where he went earlier."When I got there, the bodies were gone. Three bodies of men were found according to the police. All are at the funeral home.""Have you met?"Ali shook his head. "Because their car exploded when it hit a tree, the engine quickly exploded. The bodies were burnt so they could not be identified."I felt both fear and pity for that. "Theyre pitiful.""Poor thing? Do you know that their goal is your life and then you feel sorry for them?" Ali looked a little angry when he sai
CHAPTER 32—Has a FeverRain's Point of ViewAli and I would hold hands while walking back to the mansion. I just smile every time I think of Ali and I having a relationship. It's like I have assurance and rights with him."Is it okay if I tell mommy about us?" I asked him."It's fine. I told you, your parents accepted me and they voted for me."I just shook my head. Ali is my first boyfriend and I am happy because what he said is true. My parents voted for him so I know I won't have any problems with them.We were in the living room when we first saw Aliona eating in the living room while holding her cell phone. Her eyes widened when she saw Ali and I holding hands. She stood up and quickly approached me."Just excuse me, Ali? I will talk to my cousin, okay?""It's okay. I'll just look for Sir Elmer too.""Okay. Take your time!" Aliona waved.Before Ali turned his back on us, he kissed me on the cheek causing Aliona and I's eyes to widen."See you later," he said.Aliona almost squeez
CHAPTER 33—Taking Care of HimRain's Point of ViewBECAUSE Ali had to take medicine right away, I didn't cook anymore. I just sent food from the mansion and also sent medicine. I made sure that everything needed would be brought to his house.While waiting, I went inside the room to wipe Ali with a face towel. I felt him for a while and when I was sure he was asleep, I carefully sat next to him. I laughed a little when I saw Ali's eyebrows meet even though he was sound asleep.I lightly slapped Ali's cheek and forehead. He's still hot. Maybe it was because of the wound from the bullet wound. I just sighed before grabbing the face towel and submerging it in the water. I squeezed it and slowly touched it to his skin. Even though he didn't wake up, Ali's face showed that he was slightly relieved by what I was doing. I also took another face towel which I followed by wiping in passing with a wet face towel.I continued it up to his neck to his arm.After a while, I finished what I was doi
