“AND here I am, thinking that you already drop the idea.”

Brian somehow reminded Sam, no, he is a bit venting his frustration for Sam’s hard-headed nature. That is getting worse day by day when it comes to his little sister, Cath.

“Drop the idea? Did I ever tell you that?”

Sam smirks, somewhat toying with Brian. But, both of them know that it is just his little antics to justify his choices.

“Aren’t you afraid Cath will know about this?”

Brian now threatened him casually. Bluntly using Cath in the situation which Sam is taking his initial advantage from.

“If she will know,” Sam emphasizes with confidence.

Looks back at Brian with those eyes that tell him one thing.

“I know that you wouldn’t rant me out no matter what.”

His trust and defense, knowing Brian while taking into consideration their friendship and partnership in one way and another.

“Confident enough?”

Brian’s reply is that isn’t a joke, nor a little play-by-words that they usually do in an argument or two. While hidin

    “WHAT do you think, Brian?”Sam’s words and suspicion, no, his deduction that Brian is left contemplating if he will tell him the entire truth. This means, breaking his promise to Cath and the fact that they are facing a dangerous situation this time. “The Chairman?”Brian asks, a bit changing the topic which Sam can see through him and what he is trying to do and implying. “Mom is never a person who jumps into things recklessly. Yet, she also isn’t the person that would just sit back and do nothing if she had something that doesn’t suit her principles.”Sam briefly explains, which Brian knows about and way from before. Not just being his best friend, but the most trusted employee that the Lawrences had. “What do you think the Chairman knew?”Brian’s question and this time a fact that he wanted to know about. Now that Sam just shared with him the involvement of the Chairman that no one of them especially Cath should take it for granted even for a bit. “Not that much, but one thing

    “WHAT the hell is happening?”Harry desperately asks Brian, irritated by the fact that he is a bit left in space. Worst with his guts telling him for a while now that Sam knew everything more than they could expect of him. But Brian could only look at him knowingly. Hesitant and in between the facts of what Sam knew, what he didn’t and will about to know. “We are here.”Brian immediately informs Sam, pulling the car to a complete stop in front of the apartment building that just confirms everything of Harry’s intuition. “Floor number.”Sam directly asks, but to Brian and instead towards Harry. Brian is then taken aback by the question and the bit of a threatening stare that Sam is making toward him.“What?”Harry asks, acting all puzzled to stall some time while sending signs to Brian to help him out. But before Brian could, but then, on the contrary, he isn’t allowed by chance nor has Sam given him the second to do so. Sam repeated himself and much more firmly this time. “I resp

    THE three of them are stunned, more than just surprised by what they just heard and saw. Especially Sam that didn’t expect his mother to keep a such deep and huge secret from them. “I see. That’s why she was uneasy back then.”He recalled the past whispering the fact that just make sense. That somehow everything of the lost pieces of the grand puzzle had been found and placed perfectly in their rightful place. “When does this conversation of them happen?”Brian asks, worried about the things that just explode in front of Cath. “Just a while.” Jun immediately answers him, reading his worry that he then corrected and assures. “Cath is not an ordinary woman, unlike the rest. She is not someone who will back down and easily be swayed by things around her. And I admit, she is one hell of a badass one that I ever met.”Jun’s compliments and emphasis on those facts calm Brian. Realizing what Jun is saying to him about his younger sister and the fact that Sam also admits. Just realize that

    “NADIA!”Sam calls out, in deep worry when Nadia’s phone call is then ended after a shrieking noise and a loud crash that he heard from the other line. “Nadia? What happened?”Harry quickly asks and is in a bit of a panic, especially after seeing Sam’s face. “Damn!” Jun curses after quickly grabbing his phone and forgetting to turn his phone’s speaker up, realizing a bit late that Nadia had been calling him for a while now. “Stupid!” He curses and scolded himself while trying to reach Nadia’s phone, but to no avail. “Somethings not right. Jun, you do have a tracker with Cath or Nadia’s phone, right?”Sam quickly asks and almost slams his body into Jun, shoving him away from the computer and immediately twerking the keys to find Nadia and Cath’s location. “I do.”Jun immediately replies and help him with the tracking device. “Here.”Jun quickly located the two phones that is too far from each other. Nadia’s tracker is way ahead and out of the route than Cath’s phone. “This is

    “ACCIDENT?”Sam almost curses. Fed up from the series of events, worse with Cath missing. “Where is she? No, let’s go to the hospital.”He directly ordered, rushing inside their cars and heading to where Nadia is taken. “Authorities are already at the scene when Jun arrives. But he did catch up and found Nadia being pulled inside the ambulance, with the instruction to take Nadia to the RD Medical hospital.”Brian explained, on the wheels and hitting the gas while Adriella and her bodyguards are following them close behind. “Call the director of the hospital, and tell him to move quicker than they did before once the ambulance arrived.”Sam added which Brian immediately followed. Calling the hospital director which is under their corporation and the hospital that Adriella is supervising as the Chairman. “Harry.”“Yes.”Harry quickly responded phone at hand and was more than ready for anything that Sam will instruct him to do. Knowing that in this situation, being slow and a bit foo

    EYES on the monitor of the widescreen of the computer monitors. Brian is considering every detail after Sam’s instruction and where he is currently. Bugging the employees of the city’s protection and security division with the CCTV footage of the area where Cath is abducted, the chase and before Nadia’s accident, or so was it. “Even how many times you are going to repeat the footage. I already told you that you cannot find anything because all the CCTV in that area is not broken, the quality of the video is blurry and off, and some just suddenly turned off.”The officer and one of the authorities under the said division explain to him in an irritated tone and expression. Brian doesn’t need a psychologist to confirm to him that everything is being fiddled and quickly unlike what they expect from it.“You do know that an authority who is covering for a crime is sentenced to a long prison sentence and worst when evidence is presented to the court.”Brian reminded in a threatening way th

    “IT’S him! I am telling you it is all him.”The officer begs and is on his knees. Hand clasp in a prayer way rubbing it as he begs in front of Brian. “You are well aware that, lying will only put you into deeper trouble, right?”Brian taunted the officer. Making sure that he is not being toyed with by him or anything. Especially since he couldn’t trust anyone at this point, added to the fact that the officer’s confession is somewhat too easy for him to have.“I know, I know, and I am not lying or anything. I am telling the truth. I swear to my life that all that I have said is the truth.”The officer insisted, along with his cries that were genuine enough for Brian. “I’ll be taking this one.”Brian took the bundle of cash inside the brown envelope with a glove at hand. “Evidence and two. Now, gave me a copy of the document inside the envelope that you gave to her.”“Do-documents? What documents?”He pretended to not know. The officer that a bit playing with Brian, yet, Brian alread

    “HOW foolish I am not to realize this sooner?”Cath blames herself. Torn between what’s right and wrong, and now thinking about her relationship with Sam. “This has gone too far. I shouldn’t have done this stupid assignment in the first place.”Her working regret, and for a while talking herself out of it. But her heart is screaming aloud at her otherwise. “This is not the time to be thinking about this Cath, focus.”She reminds herself and put her mind to the current facts and what she needed to do.“Settle everything once this whole charade is resolved.”The decision that Cath came upon and fast. Holding her phone tight and called Nadia. “I am here at the corner street---”She informs Nadia and waits for her to fetch her up after her encounter with Adriella and the unexpected things that she learns from her. “Alright.”With the confirmation and two, Nadia’s car is almost to where she is when a black van and black tainted windows suddenly stop in front of her.

    “HOW long has it been since then, Leo?”The expected meeting, but the unexpected expression and tone that is in a mix of disappointment and anger that Cath is showing right in front of him. Left alone in the headmistress office and at first glance they are seem to share a casual tea time. He looks down, not in shame, but a bit of worry from how things unfolded. Which makes him think if he is regretting his decision of giving Cath a clue about the past.“Or should I call you now with your known name, Aaron?”“Tell me, do you hate me that much after what you have learn, Cath?”“Hate you? Why should I? You didn’t do anything to me which needed me to resent you. Instead I am the one who should be asking you of that question, for I failed to recognize my old friend.”Old friend. The words that means more than the shallow meaning of it. Words that will disappoint anyone, for it means more than just a rejection, but a total abandonment towards someone who only thinks about one person and dea

Worst with the atmosphere in the room that is getting heavy and dreadful upon their conversation that a while back is going smoothly and just like always.

Francis stands before Cath, with his gun up a bit shaking from his wound, but directly pointing it towards her. “I may stupidly fail at first, but this time I will not fail to end your life. You who put me behind bars, Catherine Wayne.”“Cath!”Two familiar voices echo in the air, but before Cath could look and see for herself who could those two people be? Francis fired his gun, missing Cath’s vital spot from his shaking hand due to his injuries. Yet still, inflict Cath with another injury and a gunshot to her left arm. Stumbling backward made her lose her footing and leads her to fall to the cliff.“Damn! Just die!”Two gunshot echoes, now directly to Francis's legs leaving him impaired and down helpless. “You cannot save her, she is gone!

Do not let go no matter what happens and wait for her to say so. “Do you understand, Cole?”“Alright, aunt Lindsey.”The little boy replied and quickly borrow his face to Lindsey’s chest. Being an obedient child, Lindsey could feel the fear of her nephew with Cole’s shaking body and cold hands. “Stop, or find yourself swimming in your blood.”More than a familiar voice and the only person right now that Lindsey could think of who. She slowly looks back and is not surprised to see the Governor, no, Francis, pointing a gun right in front of her and with a cursing look on his face. “Just how low could you go for doing this to our family? Are you desperate to establish your dominance over us that you are going this far for your selfish desire?”“Low? Who, me? Tsk! Do not make me laugh Miss. Lindsey Lawrence.”Their exchange made it clear and more than to Linds

    TRAIL OF BLOOD is visible from near. Cath’s breath is heavy and her sweat is dripping from her forehead. She’s easing the pain from the gunshot wound that she got to her left arm and right leg. Dragging her heavy body and following the path that she instructed Lindsey at first if anything might happen and they needed to separate. “Tsk!”She clicks her tongue in anger and irritation. Tired and has been losing a lot of blood after she fought and struggled against Ivy. Now holding the gun that almost took her just a while back. “CATHERINE WAYNE!”The name, her name that Ivy screams in anger at the last second when she pulled the trigger and put a hole in its forehead. Ending a nightmare that she took within her hand and fails to put her back behind bars. “Almost. Just how many it is right now?”Suddenly reminisced and the similar danger that she took and choose for her career and passion. She chuckles and a bit rested behind a large tree.

    GUN shots can be heard from a distance and back. The exchange and the loud crash with the blow of a bomb shake the ground for a few seconds. Holding on to a tree while tightly holding Lindsey’s hand with her right one, Cath held her ground looks back when Lindsey screams in surprise at what just happened. Starling Cole awake, that worried Cath even more than she is under a lot of stress right now. “Lindsey, are you alright?” “I am. I am just startled.” “Mom? Mommy?” “Cole.” They both immediately coax the child back to sleep. Lindsey covered Cole’s ears while hugging the little boy tight into her arms. “Mommy, aunt Lindsey, what is happening?” “Don’t worry Cole, that was just nothing, just go back to sleep.” Relieved that the little boy is still sleepy and that it didn’t give them the hard time to coaxing it back to sleep.
