A simple white t- shirt that is tucked in front of the black pants while the back side was freely flowing, the clothes were partnered with a chequered loafers. The outfit can be described as monochrome and plain, and yet it was so stylish and minimalist and cannot be denied that it is fitting of the wearer. Every head turns around as Albert walks the pavement of the city as he was on his way to pick up some parts for a new set of bugs and mini cameras.
It can’t be helped, even though his style was simple and minimalist and monochrome, it's also an added fact that he is a looker too. With his light brown hair that is in a neat cut, his balck eyes that are protected by his rectangular spectacles, his pinkish thin lips and there’s also a few piercings on his l
SSHS 38 Yulia became silent as she observed Albert's movements. It seems that the latter had shown a look of surprise and confusion in his face, pacing from one emotion to the other in a back and forth manner. she was becoming anxious until Albert asked in an unsure tone, "Wait, in exchange for your body?" "Yup, my body." She confirmed "For what purpose? I'm sorry, you were just so vague that I really don't get it." Albert showed an act of confusion as he scrunched up his nose and furrowed his brows, as his eyes were tightly closed and he massaged his temples. Even though he has a hunch, he needs to be sure. Yulia sighed another time as she thought of some way to explain it to her crush in a way that he won't get scared or disgusted by her nor will it p
SSHS 39 Trigger Warning: cannibals and the likes Binary Vascular System: a syndrome where a person who has two hearts inside their body and both functions perfectly well. It was first heard of from the show Doctor Who where the doctor was alleged to have two hearts. He’s a human, yes, but he’s also an extra terrestrial. But we are humans. It was never heard of nor was it thought to have been true at all. Or to even be real. Sure a person can have two hearts, but only due to a surgery. But to be naturally born with it? It was something that is unheard of nor will anyone think of it to be happening. Alexandria’s Genesis: is a medical myth that can be traced back from 2005. It
SSHS 40 The trust that this girl has put on them. It was even— the two spies cannot fathom how can someone as Yulia who was in a lot of danger— could trust them so easily. ‘Is she crazy? How can she be so naive and innocent despite all of the threats that she is in? Hope can she trust us so easily? What if we were the bad guys? What if we were some dark and shady people from the Underworld, belonging to some mafia or a gang that wants and hunts her?’ Those thoughts circled around the minds of Hestia and Albert as they both stare at the oblivious girl who they can't pace if she is really aware of the dangers around her or just not able to clearly realise the extent of it all.
SSHS 41 The lights hanging from the ceiling of the living room can be seen reflecting in the pristine white tiles of the floor. The walls were coated in an elegant design of wallpapers with the soothing colour of pale blue. The sofas have a velvety texture in the colour of white. And it seemed like all the furniture was in the motif of blue and white as to make the atmosphere of the living room light and welcoming. From the rug that is blue, the table of glass in the shade of blue, the velvet curtains of white and everything else. However, even if the colours were seemingly just plain, the minimalist design or interior design of the room made it more interesting. The hallways were a colour of pastel brown. The walls were coated in a pastel brown paint, the brass furniture high
SSHS 42 A spy. Mostly is a person who secretly works for a secret organisation who’s really good at keeping their identity hidden from the world. A spy may learn or have received an adequate— if not— advanced training in all fields possible that they might encounter during a job or a mission, anything outside of those training are personal experiences they have attained. A spy must be always in a low profile, secretive and speaking of little information about themselves, must have critical thinking, always calm, always logical, always calculative. No move must be wasted, no opportunity must be wasted— as a spy, it is a must to be a disciplined person who upholds the orders of their employer, upholds the rules of their organisation and always thinks of the best interest of their client. A spy must have the resolve to do everything
SSHS 43 The sky wasn’t really that inviting, nor can it lift up the mood of anyone who may look at it right now. And surely, it wasn’t a great way of starting the week. That Monday morning was not ready to welcome the people to a new week, even the early birds were greeted with the silent surroundings— no chirping birds or the laughs of those who run in the morning or even the loud steps of the elderlies who take a morning stroll. The grey clouds were on the verge of crying and then there was no single ray of light coming from the sun, the wind was cold and damp and strong and was blowing from all directions, sweeping everything that it could. In a way, it was telling that this is a bad omen.
SSHS 44 Time seemed to be running fast, and yet the happenings were considered minimal and anti-climatic. It was as if that the time was just passing by and the event was nothing but an everyday life. At least, that is what most of the students feel like. It was the third week of September and at this time, not only is it the beginning of orientation and training of the new members of the club, but it is also the time for the quarterly midterm examinations. The midterm examination was an assessment on how they were able to comprehend their learnings and also their memory. Everyone was on their edge, furiously reaching out to their hard-working classmates for notes, conducting group studies and even asking for tutors. They dreaded the P.E. subject more as it is more of the ap
SSHS 45 Just like before, just like what happened to Arthur’s and Aaron’s case, it seemed like it was a trend to have the characters freeze once they are presented or they have encountered such an extreme situation— or maybe it is the normal reaction to such things. After all, any person who was presented with a situation where their secret is unravelled, the only reaction that is appropriate for such a thing is to freeze, as the brain stopped working— or rather, took the time to stop all motions to focus everything about this. Finding a way out of this, averting her attention into something. He can’t let her find him out so soon. That would be a huge problem. &l
SSHS 247After the Thanksgiving dinner that night and that mission, the two rookie undercover spies went on with their days. They went on being the ‘normal’ third years that they are and continued being the third years that they are. No more missions were given to them after the mission about the Montague couple and they do not know if the headquarters of the ISO where sympathising with their shock or if there is really no more mission for them to do. But either way, they are glad that they were able to finish the mission in such a short time and also experience being students as they are.They went on and experienced things as if they were normal people and not some spies who were trained at the very young age. Not some undercover people who are in there for the sake of completing their mis
SSHS 246After the game it was already time for dinner, Damian and Excami won because none of them were able to find out what kind of thing they had and they were all tagged out of the game. It was fun for the most part but what everyone waited for was the thanksgiving dinner and it was satisfying. They enjoyed every bite and they waited for the dessert because it was the star of the dinner the dessert.Then after eating, they lounged a little longer by the dinner table and talked about all the other things, like the fun times that they had in school, the love story between the Montague couple how they met how they fell in love and then almost talked about how they conceived the children but thankfully damien and Excami stopped them before it happened. The Montague siblings almost asked about the families of Hestia and Albertand what kind of stori
SSHS 245Sometime later, it is already the Month Of October and things have been going smoothly both for the Montague siblings and for the two rookie undercover spies and for the Montague couple. for the course of the month of october, Hestia and Albert had been invited for dinners and lunches by either Damian or Excami and would always result for a dinner together with their parents and with that the bond between all of them had grow and become stronger and they were more close with each other than ever before.But there is something that the two rookie undercover spies can not pinpoint at all. because most of the past missions they have been assigned to, they are always making the opportunity to get close to the target; they are always making the opportunity to do something, to create a movement, a pattern, a path for their mission t
Sshs 244The next day, Hestia and Albert walked side by side to their classroom. Apparently, the whole school knew of the incident yesterday: Mrs. . Montague pulled them out for the whole day and never came back until the wee hours of the night. Some people tried to block them and ask a ton of questions about what happened yesterday; questions like: what happened? Where did you go? What did she say? Was she generous? Was she kind? Was she loving and sweet and like a saint when she visited back at the beach house? What did you talk about with her? Such a ton of questions were asked to them and yet they remained silent about it. No comment, no answers, just complete silence as they went through
SHS 243 They ate in silence, up until dessert. No one spoke a word and it stayed that way until they were brought into the library. No one spoke as each of them were encouraged to pick a book in the vast collection of books inside the library. As they sat into the chairs available at the library, only then did the conversation start at the pretence of wanting to know what book they found. “How about you, Hestia? Albert? What book did you pick?” Hestia and Albert then lifted up the books that they picked. Mrs. Montague cooed at the books in their hands and proceeded to analyse them. “Wow! You live up to your personality. Unlike someone else.” Mrs. Montague threw in the shade as she briefly looked at her children who were silently reading with their father on the other side of the library. It was not quite far, but it seemed that the Montague siblings were so immersed in what they were reading that they did not notice the shade that was thrown at them by their
SSHS 242 As the three of them sat in silence without any of them taking a bite of their food, they tried to process the information that was at their table. The Montague siblings have been showing two different personalities and all between being inside the school and at school. If at school, they were glorified as students who are the top role models; a fun and energetic one and a gentle ruler, both were on ground and knew how to touch some grass. At home, they are the arrogant siblings who think they are better than anyone and will not even go down to their current level. It was as if they know the a person with the same name and yet still different by how they act.&nb
SSHS 241 A new school year started right before their eyes. Without any mission to worry about, time passed by the two rookie undercover spies and with barely any notice, they were in their third years. There were a lot of things that happened but they were used to it and it passed by them like a flash of the camera and after that, it was already in the middle of the month of September. The voting for the new Student Council began and the whole school was bussing with noises and the representative of the running Student Council President was shouting and getting people to vote for their candidates. “Please vote for…” one student shouted. “No, please vote for…” another student shouted. It was the start of the shouting battle between the two parties running for the Student Council President position. It created so much commotion that Damian had to step up and break the commotion apart. “Enough with this! This is so immature of you! Can’t you go and make your da
SSHS 240 As the surroundings dimmed into darkness, the light sensors in the gymnasium began to light up. Freya’s eyes adjusted from the dark and into the light that the sensor lights brought up. She shielded her eyes with her hands from the sudden light and that was Albert’s cue to remove himself from the sight of the Senior Cheerleader and go behind her. This is not to catch her off guard--- oh she was already caught off guard by the time she mentioned the Pandora’s Box--- but it was his way to not let Freya do anything anymore that will put herself into more danger. It is better if she just surrenders to them in a plain and simple manner.&
SSHS 239 “By the way, how were the Montague siblings? I have not heard from them after that incident with Arthur.” Albert asked. The two rookie undercover spies were roaming around the campus, taking a leisure walk as they passed by some of the students who were headed for their extra curricular activities. The two of them do indeed have some activities too but it was all done. Hestia is done with her paper works and scheduling for the Student Council and Albert was also done with his portfolio for the Photography Club with the theme of ‘After Christmas’. There was a moment of silence to the part of Hestia before she answered the inquiry of her spy partner. “They have been normal, acting as they always have as far as I am concerned. Although Excami now has her guard up always and was weary of everything and everyone, she is as cheerful as ever. Well, it is Damian who changed. He became more strict and protective of his sister, and he also became colder.” Hest
