After a minute of silence, Alex spoke in a serious tone,
"I will never judge you Anna, and I expect the same from you."
'Thank God he is not angry.' Anna sighed in relief.
"Okay, so my answer to your first question is yes. I have decided and I want to explore more. I want to feel the adventure and fulfill my bucket list."
"You have made a bucket list also?" asked Alex.
"Exactly. I will tell you everything afterward but now we have to concentrate on this Quiz."
They both started doing their mathematics problem together. After some time, the maths teacher also came and gave them some advice about how to answer certain questions.
Today, they studied for 1 hour more than usual.
It was time for Anna to go home.
"Anna, can you give me your number? Now that we have decided to fulfill your bucket list, we might need to stay in touch."
After thinking for a minute she gave him her number which was with a very less number of people.
She came home happy and seeing her daughter's smile, mother Marrie was very happy.
After dinner, Anna went upstairs to finish her other subjects homework.
..
Around 11:30 p.m.
There was a notification on her phone, a message from the unknown.
Unknown- "Hi."
Anna-?
Unknown- Your teammate.
Instantly Anna knew it was Alex. She saved his number and messaged "Good Night." to him.
After messaging and completing her homework she was still in a daze.
Suddenly, she opened her laptop and logged onto the website.
She typed some things but having a second thought, she backspaced everything.
' I need to trust him in this.' thought Anna while she was staring at the black sky having starred in it through her window.
...
On another Side, outside the city.
"Boss, we have every detail that you wanted in this file," said Spy1.
Kevin opened the file and on the first page was her candid picture. Kevin took that picture in his hand and stared at it with the utmost affection.
"So, here you were hiding the girl. But your luck seems bad. I found you after so many years." Kevin started laughing and this laugh wasn't ordinary.
"Send spy3 to keep an eye on her. I want to know her daily routine. You got that?" ordered Kevin to his man.
"Yes sir!"
"Now let's see who will save you from me and how much time you will take to accept your identity," said Kevin, likening to Anna's picture.
...
Alex's house.
He was staring at the "Good Night" message sent by Anna!
This was the first time someone has sent him such a message.
