‘IS SHE CHEATING ON ME?’

The only thing that’s currently running inside Sam’s mind for almost an hour now since she heard Cath talking secretively on her phone.

“That’s impossible.”

He rationalizes. Calming his nerves weighing the facts and the possibility of things.

“She wouldn’t do it. I am just overthinking a bit. I shouldn’t jump on the gun. Right?”

Worse than convincing and trying to make things make sense for him. Sam is turning his mind into disarray and more than how chaotic it is right now.

“Cath is not like what you are thinking, you know her.”

He whispers to himself and might as well turn into a crazy one. He’s walking back and forth in the same spot and in a straight line that could straight up turn anyone dizzy just by looking at him.

“Damn! This is driving me nuts!”

Now having a headache and two and have been in the dilemma for an hour. Sam completely forgot his work and the pile of documents that he needed to go through for the day.

“I should have spied on her.” He

    “ONE thing that you need to know young lady. This job is unlike any other, if you are thinking that this is like a walk in the park then you are dead wrong.”The warning that Cath receives from the best detective in the entire police department of division seven. A kind of insult that she isn’t fun of hearing that is underestimating her. “First of all, I am not a young lady. Never wore any fancy dress to present myself like those dolly rich girls out there.”Cath emphasizes, contradicting the detective’s words with the stance of shutting everyone who is looking down on her. “Second, I didn’t choose my profession today to be scared of a mere gunshot.”She added, grabbing the disassembled gun in front of her and swiftly assembling it like a pro in minutes. “And third, do not dare look at me as a lady reporter and underestimate my skills.”Immediately pulled the trigger and fired directly on the dummy target a few feet from their location in the practice shooting field of division sev

    “LOVE?”Jun smirks, taking the conversation to be the funniest and silliest thing he ever heard in his entire life. Even though he is always asking about the matter. “I do not have the time for that.”He briefly explains and drops the case like it was nothing and not even worth talking about for a second. “You do not have the time?” Nadia asks in a tone that is both intriguing and teasing him. Knowing that he knew more than anyone else why he is acting all reserved about the topic. “Why?” Nadia added. “Because you are this country’s best detective and had many things at hand to even think about it for a second.”She hides the term with its pronoun knowing how sensitive Jun is regarding the topic. Yet, she is a journalist, and a journalist had the habit of pocking into someone’s business especially if it is interesting enough to be sold. “What are you pointing out about Nadia?”Jun asks in a serious and a bit of a dismayed tone. But Nadia is not having any of it, and for being use

Especially since he is in a hurry for a very important case. “I’ll inform you everything once I had it all under control.”Eyes wide and Harry knew that his senior detective and direct superior had a big and dangerous case up on his s

    “NADIA, I need your help.”Cath video calls Nadia using her computer through a secured IP address that she has way back to her detective years. Custom made for her by the district seven’s police department IT specialist. “Wait.” Nadia holds her horses for a bit with Nadia’s expression that telling that whatever she will about to say, is something way serious and dangerous. “With this IP address, what are you shoving yourself into right now Cath?”Nadia’s worried tone which Cath doesn’t need to further explain the basics upon knowing what she is up into. Which is not that even hard to read. “It’s been a month since you use this IP address to call me. A month after that last big news that almost cost you your life with Jun, and now?”A bit hysterical, yet Cath couldn’t blame Nadia and her worries, especially after the last mission that almost took their lives. “Aren’t you supposed to make an article about Sam?”Nadia asks of her and bit inquiring about her progress that the truth i

No, I am right.”Nadia emphasizes, that Cath’s silence and a bit of a roll with her eyes are enough for Nadia to confirm what she just thinking. “I couldn’t blame him.” She added. “You are being secretive in a way where you couldn’t tell him what is wrong.”She nailed it, yet not that hard knowing the circumstances and what just Cath had told her. Besides, it is kind of Cath’s habit that Nadia is all used for. “I understand you and support you with that, but I also know what’s running inside that head of Sam right now.”Now Nadia warns, quoting the fact that Sam will not stay silent on the side. “Worst-case scenario, it will be a ‘man’

But forgot that he should not confront Cath in any way for Brian will do it for him. A thing that Sam immediately failed to do, due to his dwindling patience about the matter. “I need to talk to you about something.”“Can’t it wait?” Cath pleaded with her tone with a little sweetness and caressing. “I’m sorry that I couldn’t talk to you today, I need to send the kids to school and asks about the progress of what happened.”“Is that really is it about?” Sam cut Cath’s words that Cath is not that oblivious to know what Sam is truly thinking. Sam’s suspicious that Cath needs to calm him down.“Of course, why?”Cath chuckles, taking it passively and evading the to
