The struggle that I do today is a way to build a better quality in tomorrow…Jane watched him navigate the corridor through the window tent, her heart pounding in her chest as she pressed her lips together tightly, trying not to cry. Once he was finally out of sight, her little hand flew to her mouth to cover up sobs as she sat back in her arm chair where he sat before, her eyes closed.She sat in silence for a few moments, the only sound being the dull hum of her music show out there. God she is tired, tired and hurt. Betraying Gary was one thing, but somehow herself lies hurt the most, she don’t really thought that he – no no no, apparently it was all fake. How stupid of him to get involved with her life at all! she really is a bad person.She was suddenly torn from her thoughts as she felt someone walk in as tent door open again."I said get out!" Jane screamed too loudly, her voice shrill. She looked up hoping Gary had returned but her eyes instead; wet with unshed tears, met Rich
Your greatest weakness is when you give up and your greatest strength is when you try one more time. things will seem impossible until you can do it…“—you didn't come up to me and ask for my help, I just wanted to make sure your company stays afloat, and now, we agreed on one thing and all of a sudden you're acting like-, -so tell me Jane, who made you like This!"Jane scoffed as Richard finished his tirade, her eyes narrowing as she shook her head. His smile was evil and deadly, his humorless expression terrifying in a way she knew all too well."Don't. Don't you dare try to pretend to be the hero in this, as if you two weren't conspiring behind me! Don't lie to me Richard. I know you. Don't pretend as if you are a good person and I am a bitter woman , not according to your views.” Jane finished her speech panting, her hands moving wildly as she raged."What, conspiring what do you mean?" Richard sneered cruelly, his eyes bold. Before he knew what happened, her hand had shot up and
Optimism is the belief that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence, maybe without you, new strength and new thoughts emerge…'Not when you're acting like that, trying to rob my show or whatever it is you're doing right now.''—Is that all part of the game?' Gary gripped the steering wheel tightly.'All the flirting and kissing? Just a little extra humiliation?' her bitter voice echoed in Gary's ears'Why don't you have some fun while you try to steal my company and show me from under me? Is that so-' he blinks his eyes when he realized that there were many knocks on his car glass, he realized that he was already in front of the building where his fashion show was campaigned, Gary's mouth opened realizing what he was doing."Shit!" he muttered as he searched with fumble looking for his cell phone on the other side of the car, “where the hell is that” open the cupboard he get what he looking for… when he got his cell he quickly dialled someone's number "El
You can't connect the dots forwards, you can only connect them looking backwards. So, you have to believe that the dots will somehow be connected in your futureThey sat next to each other on wooden chairs in the tent, although Jane did not realize that Richard was so happy to hide his smile with her sitting very close to him because Jane was busy compressing the burning cheeks that were slap by her earlier...“Jane, may I speak to you in private?” He noticed that everyone was slowly getting on with their activities, outside and actually when Richard himself was watching her face closely like this she was so beautiful... he couldn't resist. He held her right elbow gently and tried to get Jane's attention avoiding the stiff peeking stares.Jane humm can still focus on his red cheeks from the corners of her eyes, curiously trying to hear the conversation that Richard brought up"Have you eaten dinner yet? I believe this is the right time to go, for I owe you another apology."Jane shook
-0-0-FlashbackThey sit on bench at rootop with night sky Illumination. Jane rubbed the calloused ends over the flower feathers before the white seeds crushed in her palm. She grimaced shortly before selecting another from the plush meadow we sat on, her head resting firmly on him. Gary can feel his heart throb under her near, and he can breathe her saccharin musk from which her facade sinks into the crook of his neck. He stares at me through long eyelashes, her Blue irises glistening with curiosity. “Gary, where you get this flowers ? I mean where this come from?” Gary couldn’t help but smile at the naivety in Her sentence. Her tone sounded like a child who wanted to introduce to the concept of procreation.Gary then laughed silently to himself. How could he possibly explain something that was bigger than him, bigger than his feeling, or even bigger than the Gods and Heavens? “Every seed that is planted in the ground is handcrafted from my father’s filthy hands. He had big plans for
Thursday is a boring day for Riri because usually she has to go home early and spend time alone as her uncle must be out of town and it's good now that she has Lily to play with...Lily frowned, looking around the kitchen, and the living room looking for water, who was nowhere to be seen."Riri, where I found water!!?" Lily shouted through the house.when Riri maid cleaning outside The mission room door opened slightly. Lily's heart jumped to her throat as she slowly moved towards the door and it turns out to be Riri in her goofy modeShe pointed to fridge in cupboard with her fake gun. Lily with a serious look, shaking her head a little towards her attitude."Where you get that fake toy'?" Lily said, following her thought when others to a wave of disappointed protests from Riri. But Riri didn’t answer when she opened the door to moving sit on the couch in the middle of the room. "-Riri, didn't you hear me ?" Lily continue asked, playing angry with her.Riri turned towards her with w
“Oh HellHell, How are you supposed Not to plan a mission with me when your not tell me this secret door before? I haven't seen -?" Lily asked a little irritated but her words cut shortly as "I should be contacting you soon. Let me check." Riri said, pulling out her phone while pressing a few digits of the password buttons to open the door... Lily’s mouth had never been so wide when she entered a room…what? Toy gun? Real guns but fakes Can use... all of them hanging on the walls and also some deer and bears head... they drove Riri’s electric car to go to Riri’s uncle’s house and quietly entered this house to a room with an underground door near several cars parked by Gary’s antique collection.Lily heard the phone ring, and walked back to Riri. She seeing ’LovelyUncle’ appear on Riri phone with number before she answering the call quickly. “Bon après-midi! Je suis en devoir de capitaine ! avec l'agent Lily ici!” she said, prepared for Gary questions.“Have schoolwork finished?” w
"Mine is definitely bigger.""Keep dreaming, pretty Blonde.""Yours is the size of your arm!""It doesn't matter the size, but the skill of the beholder." Riri glanced over to the table beside Her, rolling her eyes from the childish remarks. They always got in the same argument, anytime they were near one another. When Lily trying to prove who wielded the larger gun. Amusingly, they were actually talking about their weapons. Naturally Riri should win the competition, but eventually, as Lily had casually segued to; it turned into who was the better gungirl. Riri turned back to her Cola drink and sighed, if you sat close enough for an extended period you'd begin to quote what Lily would say next."I have the better aim.""You don't need no aim when you can take out everything at once!" Riri explain when teaching Lily how to do a good one “-See, you almost took your arm off in that 'let's not aim' attitude, and you were aiming a lot for shoot one soda can” Lily pursed her lips when Riri
Jane changed into her thin black lace pajamas with see-through and went about her nightly routine, replaying that night's events in her mind. After they returned to the table, Richard continued to explain, taking every opportunity to point out similarities and common interests between Herself until Jane could barely speak to one another; Richard had said all there was to them. while Jane is tempted to look at her past lover, but forces herself to be a good poker face, relaxing and sipping her wine. There would be time to think about Richard later.She was beginning to suspect Marisa had been talking more to Richard in her absence too, because by the time they all said goodbye it was clear he had the impression it was indeed a date, no joke. he. She pulled him aside and told him in a charming tone how wonderful it was to meet her, and would hope to see her again sometime, to talk business, or…. Jane groaned closing her eyes, for in her memories of being with Richard distracted by the i
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
He chuckled but pretended to look offended, “Of course! In fact, I am a great dancer. I'm the grandson of the British Ambassador, remember? 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. You've probably s
-0-0—YESTERDAY“-uhm, and why do you like roses?” Jane tried to break Richard’s gaze too fixated on her“Well, it’s different with you I guess I should explain first—” Jane smirked as Richard teased her before he continued “Apparently my father is an American businessman who grew up in Europe and my mother is British,” he began after tasting the wine, “They have nothing in common, just the fact that they’re both fresh. 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. Dad is friendly and talkative, mom is shy and introspective—” Jane laughed looking at him“and it’s very specific The other way around” Jane laughed making Richard smile happily“In every way imaginable,” he nodded, “They met at one of those student meet and greets once. “He said he was instantly smitten by her, while mom wasn’t impressed with him at all,” he laughed, “Instead of givi
“I thought you want to help me?” Gary said speaking up. “You said you need me for a mission to get all this started so what do we have to do?” She wasn’t surprised Gary was the first one to ask that question. 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
The silent level in the cafe was deafening; so much for the belief that a meeting of the him was always conducted in a decorous fashion, hah. Sia exchanged glances with hm. 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. I’m sending a second ship with you-the Odyssey.” Sia pause considering “but I do want to help you” Gary closed his eyes grunts in annoyed This was exactly what he didn’t want to know about his dad done or his assets... even the Dark Auction wasn’t any worse“Who will be in command of the selection of this mission?” Gary asked slowly“I am but you will be in charge of the overall mission if you join me,” Sia said immediately, answering his unspoken question. “Captain Effic La Farley will be in command to help in France. He’s an excellent officer. Although he’s never held a field command before, he’s headed up a variety of research teams, plus garnered immeasurable experience serving on senior staff for nearly fifteen years befo
“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. Gary’s eyes met hers. “Ahh I think that’s how They claims her Retail is easy since Ms. Arnault’s father is from and settled in France.” Gary sat back, stunned. Many images and memories of his time in France – with Jane, for what they thought would
