    The actual experience of being in the same car with your past lover is as bad as it sounds, hah past lover... Jane doesn't believe that two people who were once lovers can act as parents. She can do that or maybe it only applies to Gary (her first and last person if he is, she can probably swear on her father's grave if necessary). How was she supposed to act as if she moved when all that was running through her mind was 'or is Jane thinking of kissing him?' God was she crazy, she quickly shook off the thought.As much as he wanted to close the distance between them, she couldn't. Not when they're around kids who make the stupidest decisions to be found by them, no. maybe Not when the other man in question hasn't even looked her in her eyes either.So she took the safest option, looking out the window like it was the most interesting thing in the world, trying to suppress all the past thoughts that happened in this short but long journey.Gary will not be a hypocrite and lie to himsel

    Riri rushed out of the bathroom, after washing her face with drops of water still running down her face. She had never felt this wake up healthy and this refreshed before, she didn't know if she would be able to help but think what Lily was also thinking. She almost felt like this was the start of their new world, because of what had just happened in the car back then."You must be listening too" Lily's tone and expression suggested something extraordinary to the conversation, in fact she was pretty sure she thought the same. So maybe there's no use covering up her own happy face. She is not ashamed to open this topic..."I didn't hear, just accidentally" It wasn't like she had done anything wrong.

Jane clutched her arms behind his neck while panting into his hair. With a groan, he finally released his lips from her skin and lifted his head to kiss her deeply again. He met her open mouth tongue first, groaning deeply at the first touch of her body against his, this was warmer than the coat that covered her. They continued kissing passionately and for no reason whatsoever, until he slowly pulled away, keeping his forehead against hers. Eager for a breath of air, their chests rose and fell, yet their arms wrapped around each other never relaxed.He sighs trying to say a word while panting heavily. "Did I f

"I think I fell asleep." she whispered looking around, and heard a low noise from the side of the house.Her thoughts hadn't gathered as Jane searched for where the noise was coming from, she couldn't think of any other reason why she was there besides, right his lips and the warm hug that had happened this afternoon.

    Luckily, the orchestra chose that moment to finish the song and the couple in the ballroom stopped dancing, applauding their final performance.She took that as an excuse and checked the watch on his wrist watch “Oh, I didn't notice the time. It's very late," she said to him, "I have an early meeting tomorrow, with your team"Richard looked surprised and disappointed but just nodded at her. She knew it was a lousy excuse and probably one of the worst performances of her life, and they returned to their table again when they wanted to finish the bill."You understand that I invited you to dinner just to not piss me off, right?" he said.Jane laughed at him gently, "Yeah, that's pretty obvious.""So officially, I still owe you another dinner," he smiled, after he waved and silently asked the waiter for the bill, "But we can make it dinner in Chicago if you want," he said as casually as he could and waited for her to answer.Before she could say anything, the waitress returned with the b

I started taking ballroom dancing classes at the age of four, just in case Queen Elizabeth stopped by New York,” he said as she joined in on the laughs, irony isn't it? and she'd be dealing with politically strong, it was too complicated Jane thought"—Oh wait. I understand. It's a car thing, right? You don't think people who own automotive companies can dance," he continued the conversation, following another song.More like a robot linker and an airplane, Jane's mind thought with a smile.Out of the corner of her eye she saw a pregnant girl in her twenties dancing with a friend of Richard's who she knew was in his late fifties and her smile faded. She asked herself again, for the thousandth time, how a man could do such a stupid thing.Richard noticed the change in her mood and followed her gaze, “It's Hiko Yamato and his wife.

Students from the same university in France. My father is a student engineer and my mother studied Literature. Dad loves numbers, and mom loves words. Dad is brown hair, and mom is blonde.

He had the most experience working with the CIA after all.“It will actually be two missions,” Sia said turning back to the image. “This place belongs to you leader of one of the stronger factions but you hold on it is gonna through black mail and you are assisted in this by your father whom I believe you are familiar with.” An image of his father appeared on Gary mind.“Yes me is leading a Fashion businessman?” Gary said clearly shocked. “I mean I know he’s ruthless enough but I didn’t think anyone would follow him.” She could understand their disbelief but one Gary know the whole picture of his father done then he migh be understand. “He has control over the Command system ship through it’s Dark control systems,” Sia said bringing up the image. “He has allied with his brothe

    She glanced at Gary and looked uncomfortable with what he was about to ask her and she did her best to look supportive when his eyes found hers. “I know you would prefer to take some time to deal with leaving your home world again but we don’t have time,” Gary finally said. “We have an important matter to discuss, if you’d tell them what you asked me to do.”She took a breath as She look at him again “Some time ago I asked myself to consider putting myself in contention for this Mission alone.” She could see the understanding look on Gary face. “I agreed to consider it and discuss it with the rest of the truth but when Chief mantion you it kind makes me challenge Doing my job”“This is why you not stepped down to this mission isn’t it?” Gary asked looking at Sia. “You’ve agreed to go along with this mission idea of you take me in to this?” Sia nodded and Gary glanced over at his other side. “You knew about me accidently?”“Only after Chief be seen supporting you behind” Sia said afte

Of the people present on CIA, she is must to meet him, and here she is. And the only two who weren’t currently expressing their opinions at the top of their lungsDespite the seriousness of the situation, Sia had to stifle a grin as Gary rolled his eyes and whispered, “Now I know why Captain has resisted being promoted for so long!”“I certainly would go insane if I had to deal with you on a regular basis,” Gary agreed. She looked around at the room; to her left. At her immediate left, before She was glad she couldn’t make out more than a few distinct phrases from that particular ‘conversation.’“Gives you a greater appreciation for how tough it is to be CIA agent,” Gary said. “It’s not just I’m who’s unhappy, though I think most of the others were all right until this brought up the plans for the colony.” He shift

    “Although their motives appear to be pure,” Gary said with only a trace of irony disappointed in his voice, “but why my dad assets been included to them?!”Sia nods when sigh “That’s why we’ve decided that it would not be prudent to have you going back this job.

    “Do they have any other purpose other than making a living for their group?” he asked after awhile “After much effort and time I don’t think so but if the Federation cooperates in their business I’m not so sure” Sia said it made sense because people need dark political funds “There aren’t many easy worlds for illicit or unclaimed business that fit in, especially in that area,” Sia said leaning forward in her chair. Suddenly she had an insight. “Do you think there are the size of the hands of the higher ups in France?” she remembered how the Humans there offered arrivals a chance to settle down if they had sufficient funds. And this must be how the new ship got involved. The more she thought about it now, the more sense it made.
