I held my breath again as I stared into nothingness. This is the first time I broke the mission, now that I think about what I did and told Yuhan last night, I realize my mistake.
"Wifey, you've been sighing for a while, do you have a problem?" Warren asked me softly.
"No problem, Warren. I was just thinking," I answered and smiled at him. Right now, Yuhan removed me from the Mission because of what I said last night.
I should think about what I say first. What will I do? I clearly know how I feel about Warren. I want to protect him no matter what, but, is it right for me to give up everything for a man I've only known for a few months?
I have worked for many years to be where I am now. No matter what happens, I will avenge the death of my mom.
"Warren, if you had to choose, me or your dream, what would you choose?" I had never asked Warren that complicated question myself.
"You are my dream, how is that?" he asked innocently. I laughed at his answer. It's like a pick up line if he wasn't innocently cute.
"Wifey, I just thought the three of us and Rechelle would go out happily, let's go to the amusement park!" he suddenly suggested.
Rechelle? I also noticed that Rachelle was quiet. Even though she still looks hate on me sometimes, she doesn't make trouble or yell anymore.
Rechelle's Family was slaughtered by a group of mafia. What I don't know is why she is so mad at me. But I want to take care of her.
At first, I just wanted to train her to be like me and help her get revenge. But while watching her, I decided that I want her to remain a simple child, and grow up to be a simple woman.
He doesn't have to be dirty like me. She and Warren, I will protect them both no matter what happens.
"Alright," I answered smiling at Warren's wish. Somehow, I feel like I want to be a normal girl. I wish I could be normal but...
"Rechelle, don't go away from us so you don't get lost, okay?" Warren reminded Rechelle again.
"Yes," Rachelle answered weakly. As time goes on, Rechelle is becoming easier to talk to and I am very happy with that.
We spent the whole day walking around and riding different rides. While watching the two of them having fun, I realized something.
"Rechelle, Warren, I want to forget everything and live with you two." Both of their eyes widened at my sudden words.
"W-what do you want--" Warren couldn't finish what he was going to say when we suddenly heard a gunshot.
I was surprised when I saw Rachelle falling to the ground. I quickly knelt down and caught her before her small body fell to the ground.
My whole body trembled with fear as I held Rechelle's unconscious head. My whole body went weak when I saw that she had blood.
"R-rechelle," I heard Warren whisper. I kept the fear from swallowing me and tried to stop the bleeding from Rechelle's side.
Soon the three of us were surrounded by men in black. I can't count the number of them but maybe more than ten.
"Warren, handle R-rechelle first, I'll handle them," I whispered to Warren and handed him Rechelle.
"No, you won't be able to handle this alone." I was surprised by Warren's sudden tone.
"I guess, I can't hide it from you anymore. I'm sorry, Rafa." I don't know what my reaction will be to what he said.
He lowered Rachelle and smiled at me. "For now, let's protect her together," he said. I don't know what to answer but we are not in a situation to talk first.
"How dare you harm my child!" Warren's serious voice raised my eyebrows. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I was surprised when he pulled out a gun and fired at the men standing in the distance.
"Warren," I whispered. I quickly picked up Rechelle and took her to a safe place. I called Yuhan, he answered quickly and was on his way.
The gunfire increased as if more than twenty guns were firing. I don't want to think bad things but I can't help it.
When Yuhan arrived, I immediately went to where Warren was. I caught up with Warren just standing there surrounded by men in black.
"Warren?" I called him nervously. He looked at me in surprise and quickly approached me.
"Why are you here? How about Rechelle?" he asked me, but I didn't answer him and turned my gaze to the men with him.
"T-they are my bodyguards." I still didn't answer him and kept staring at the men behind him. I don't like this feeling, it's as if I wanted to slaughter them.
"Are you sure they are your men?" I asked. As if hesitating, he still nodded. I coldly glanced at him and turned away.
"Liar," I whispered softly but enough for him to hear and notice my anger. I quickly returned to the doctor who was treating Rechelle. The worry on his face was obvious.
"I stopped the bleeding, but she lost too much blood. She'll need a blood transfusion," he explained.
"Don't, worry Rechelle. We have the same blood type, I can give her my blood she needs. For now, let's get her to my hospital." I nodded and helped him with what he was doing.
"I'll get the car, ready," Warren replied. Yuhan's eyes widened for a moment but he didn't speak.
We are at the hospital. Right now, Warren and I are just sitting and not talking. Waiting for Yuhan to return.
"I'm sorry," Warren said suddenly, but I still didn't look at him.
"I have my reasons, so please don't hate me," he added but I ignored him. I hate people who lie to me.
"I'll explain everything once we get home, please?" I nodded.
"She's okay, now. I'm glad I made it in time," said Yuhan with an inexplicable expression on his face.
Just now I saw Yuhan worry too much about someone other than me. Sometimes, I wonder what Rachelle's connection is with him.
He may care for her mother's wish, but I didn't think he will care so much for Rechelle. After Rechelle's mother, Aira died, he spent 3 months looking for Rechelle, to fulfill Aira's wish to take care of Rechelle.
"I'll leave Rechelle to you, Yuhan. I have something else to attend to," I said and glanced at Warren. He seemed to understand what I meant.
When we got home, I sat on the sofa and looked at him standing restlessly. "I-I don't know where to start," he whispered.
"Start sitting down," my voice remained cold. Just now my voice turned cold to Warren.
"Ahm, actually, papa is not my real daddy. He's my uncle, and he adopted me after my parents died. And my sister was... I don't know, if she's dead or alive." He started.
Although, I don't know what connection this has with him lying to me but I am also interested in his story.
"It was my sister's birthday. We were attacked, many people were hurt and felt sorry for what happened. My parents were killed in front of me and my sister." So, mom was one of the victims of their attack? What the hell, so it was their fault.
"I wanted to get revenge. I had to pretend to be a fool, so that those who killed them would not target me. I'm sorry I lied," he explained.
So, he just likes me after all. Because of the same tragedy that happened to us, we became this way. Is it fate or a curse?
"Why are you saying all this now? Why did you expose your secret?" I asked him. Even I, can't tell him what I really am. Why does he trust me so much?
"I will do everything for you Rafaelia. Because I love you." I was surprised by what he said. He always said that when he was pretending, but I didn't took it seriously.
Now that he was saying this while showing his true colors, my heart couldn't help but beat too fast.
"A-and what made you like me? Why me?" I will ask.
"Who wouldn't like you? You were the first person who didn't judge my condition, my child like mind. You didn't even complain about everything I did to you. And you're, the reason why I'm still alive today, I owe you my life, I am yours."
"What do you mean?" I wondered. I can't remember a time when I saved Warren between life and death.
"You saved my life, 20 years ago, but you probably don't remember because of your amnesia."
"How did you know that?"
