Chapter 23

Mrs. Gamilla came again at home and tried to talk to me.
I'm confused about what I really want. There is a part of me that wants to be with her too, but the hatred in my heart is much bigger and anger for her, leaving me, which caused the destruction of my whole life.
"Sis?" I woke up from my stupor when Rechelle held my hand. I smiled at her lazily and fixed her hair.
We are here in front of her school. I picked her up but my brain was floating.
"Are you all right?" she asked. I nodded and held her hand. We were about to leave when I noticed one of Rechelle's friend's bodyguards. I gritted my teeth when I saw the tattoo of one. Saint mafia symbol.
"kid, get in the car first. Don't come out no matter what, do you understand?" I have a serious tone with her.
She nodded so I came closer to the friend of rechelle.
"You are not my bodyguard! Who are you?" The boy screamed shrill. One covered the child's nose so he lost consciousness, he was about to put him in the van when I kicked him in the face and pulled the kid back.
"Who are you?" They asked in shock. I grinned at them and took out my two sharp knives with my left hand. I quickly threw it to the two men in front of me. They were immediately hit in the chest.
"Grim reaper," I replied with a grin. They rushed at the same time to attack me but I immediately avoided them and kicked them one after the other. I was born physically strong, and the people around me made me much stronger.
First, I dropped the boy next to my car because he was disturbing my fight.
"I knew you'd interrupt." A woman suddenly appeared in front of me. She is beautiful, her eyes are narrow but it suits her.
Some came out next and they all looked strong. This is not good. I can fight one of them but not at the same time. I'm not kind of some main character that could defeat anyone, you know.
"Finally I'll catch you." He said and rushed me with his colleagues. I was about to be hit by their attacks so I jumped back to avoid their attack.
But that was not enough because the woman suddenly pulled out a gun and pointed it at me.
"Let's just say, it was self defense," she said with a smile as she fired the gun. I thought I was going to get hit but I was surprised when someone kicked her hand causing her to lose the aim of the gun and it went flying.
"You!" Annoyed, the woman turned to Warren.
"Warren!" My face lit up when I saw Warren, but I immediately hid the joy I felt when I saw him.
He might tease me later.
"How dare you point a gun at my wife?" Warren looked at the woman with glazed eyes as he pointed his gun at her head.
Warren didn't let the woman speak anymore because Warren had already shot her and her men. It didn't even took him a minute. He is very strong. I looked like a woman who was just being protected.
"Are you alright wife?" He asked and touched me on both cheeks. There was a deep worry on his face. I just nodded.
I didn't think that the warren that I thought was innocent, could kill without any hesitation or even a trace of second thoughts.
"Who is this boy?" he asked suddenly and turned to the boy who i just saved.
"Rechelle's friend," I answered. His aura suddenly darkened and he looked at the boy evilly.
"Did Rachelle ask you to save him?" Warren asked angrily as he looked at rechelle's direction. i suddenly felt scared and shouted at him.
"What are you talking about? Rechelle didn't ask for anything. I'm the one who decided to help him," I said.
"I know you're kind, but please, don't do dangerous things in the future. I thought I'd lose you," he said and hugged me. I don't know whether to push him away or hug him back. I just didn't move and let him be.
Me, kind? I'm an Assassin, a murderer. Everything I do is Dangerous and not good. How funny that he thought I'm kind when he just saw me kill someone.

We are in the car now, Rechelle is in the back seat while I am next to Warren who is driving.
"How can I leave if you two are in danger?" I turned to him at what he said.
"Leave?" I asked in shock.
"Don't worry, I'm not backing out in our marriage. I wil still marry you," he said.
"I'm not worried about that!" I yelled at him in annoyance but he just laughed.
"Maybe you know about the Saint Mafia. That's the organization that ruined all of our lives. I've been preparing since my parents died. I continued the businesses left by my family and grew them, so that when the day comes, I can take down the Saint Mafia." He explained.
"W-wait what? I'm also against the saint mafia! I should be with you to bring them down!" I shouted at him. He shook his head and gently removed my hair that was blocking my cheek.
"Half a year. I will be gone for half a year. I want you to be my wife. A normal wife at home and taking good care of our daughter. I love you wifey, so please, let me give you a normal and peaceful life." he said and smiled at me.
Yeah, I've been dreaming of having a normal and peaceful life. He will, make my dream come true.
"Now, leave it all to your husband, I promise to take his head for you. Trust me." He added. I don't know what to say.
come to think of it, I have no reason to stay at my job. I don't need revenge, or work like that anymore.
"I'll wait for you," I said incoherently. Reason for his smile to grow even bigger.
"Yes, wait for me," he whispered.
_______
I am at Yuhan's house, I brought the boy Jacob because I didn't know where to take him. I totally forgot about him, I actually got him in the car earlier.
"Where am I?" We both turned to the person who spoke and I saw the boy named Jacob. He seems to have just woken up from sleep.
"You're Rechelle's mom right? Where is she?" he asked.
"She's in the kitchen. Making a Juice," Yuhan said while pointing to where the kitchen was. The boy didn't answer him and Jacob went there quietly.
"That boy is rude. Is that how the person who treated you should be treated?" Yuhan complained with a pout and crossed his arms.
"Here's your juice," said Rechelle and placed my glass in front of me and turned to Yuhan but also easily looked away and left.
"Where's my juice?" Yuhan asked in surprise when he noticed that Rechelle didn't made one for him.
"Deserve," I whispered and took a sip of the juice Rechelle made.
"This is my house, but why am I the one who is out of place?" He suddenly asked.
"Warren will be away for a while. I will be able to work without a hitch," I said.
"Actually, you're dismissed from the mission," he said which surprised me.
"Why?" I asked out loud at the same time as I put down my juice on the table.
"You have no longer reason to keep killing. You wanted a normal life, right? This is your chance to have one. Quit your job, get married and be happy." He said long.
"Who are you to decide what should i do? Yes, I want a normal life but-" I stopped what I was saying when Rechelle suddenly entered the living room with a shocked expression.
She seemed surprised by my sudden shouting.
"Do you still have a reason to continue your work?" Yuhan promised.
I bowed slightly and think. Why can't I let go of my job of killing? I have no other reason to continue the job I have hated for a long time.

Rachelle's POV.
"Wow, they are so reckless. You should have poisoned their drinks. They will surely drink it without hesitation." Jacob's suggestion.
jacob and I are now in the Garden, pretending to play. I told Jacob everything about the death of my whole family. And he knows that sis Rafaelia and Yuhan are the ones who did it.
I didn't follow my sister's order to stay away from Jacob because he is my only ally.
"Sis is expert about poisons. I tried to poison her before but she knew it right away." I said seriously.
"What the hell? How did she do that?" Jacob said in shock.
"Yes. She just laughed and taught me about different types of poisons or poisonous plants. And how to use them properly so that I don't poison myself as well," I told him a long story and sighed.
"Heck, your adopted mother is super weird." He whispered shakily.
"She taught me a lot more about killing without knowing it, and cleaning up evidence." I added.
"Wow, is she some kind of serial killer? She's scary!"
