Irinaiah's.
In the last week of September, we're all sitting at the first floor, waiting room. It's only 2 and a half hours away before my flight to France.
Here we are as Shia naps at Lili's lap who is also asleep, Sin and Z scrolling through their phones, and Cia and Nica, leaning both on one of my shoulders, sleeping.
I have only 30 minutes before we drive to the airport. Tickets were taken care last night. I've been practicing my French accent too.
My back was unexpectedly and slowly healing this past few days ever since Bullet has taken care of me once again, but with much more security. He said I can fight but don't drain myself too much and now here I am, doing my assigned mission.
Later, I checked my watch to see that 30 minutes has passed and I need to get going.
"Hey, ladies. Wake up. Red's leaving." Sin said and Z shook the asleep ones.
"Hey, Red. Bye." Cia yawned and leaned to Nica who both went back to sleep. I chuckled in disbelief and went to kiss their forehead.
"Take care, my peaches." I smiled and stood. I turned to Z.
"They all seem pretty tired. You both can drive me to the airport. Shia and Lili. After I leave, wake them both para dun na kayo makatulog sa mga kwarto niyo. This sofa's comfortable yet uncomfortable. Intindihin niyo nalang sinabi ko." I chuckled and kissed their foreheads also. I smiled 'take care' at them as they smile back and hug me.
I finally turned at Sin and Z who is holding my two luggages, one each person. I nodded 'let's go' at them as I wear my black mask, fixed my ponytail and touched my earrings if it's till there.
I also checked my outfit if there's any dust or any unwanted designs. I wore plain white dress, black and white checkered coat and a red beret. I'm going to France, beret's required since I just bought it yesterday and also made my hair blonde which goes to my outfit.
I entered the car and put on my bluetooth earphones. I played my fave music, Circles by Post Malone then shuffled soon after as Sin drove the three of us to the airport.
When we arrived, Z helped me with the luggages as Sin stayed inside the car. After all was checked, I said goodbye.
"Hey, Sin. Z. I'm going. Take care all of you six ladies. I'll be back next year, alright? I love you all." I smiled, kissed their foreheads and waved as Sin drove away.
I turned and walked in. I gave my ticket to the counter and later on, all of us passengers who is going to the same destination went in on our plane and finally flew away.
In the middle of the flight, the sun began to rise. I looked down and saw light from the little cities on some countries. Later then, sleepiness dawned at me and I, fell asleep.
I woke up to the flight attendance's announcement that we are going down. I looked and the sun's raised, higher than earlier and shone through the plane. I smiled at the realization that I am finally going to France, my dream country.
After I'm out of the plane, I saw some people waiting for the other passengers. I smiled by their happy faces while some kids pointed and waved at me. I blinked at them and waved back. A boy whispered to her mother and her mother turned to me.
"Mademoiselle? Ça te dérange si tu pouvais prendre une photo avec mon fils?Il a dit que tu es belle." Miss? Do you mind if you could take picture with my son? He said you're so beautiful.
I chuckled and placed my bag on the top of my suitcase. I then smiled and asked for the boy's hand.
"Ça ne me dérange pas. Puis-je, monsieur?" I won't mind. May I, mister? He willingly took my hand and stood beside me.
"Un, deux... sourire." One, two.. smile. I smiled at the camera and after three pictures, they thanked me.
"Oh, pas de problème, mademoiselle. Je ne suis pas pressé." Oh, no problem, miss. I'm in no rush. I smiled.
They bid their goodbyes and after, I searched for the waiting area. I sat on one of the chairs and took out my phone. I saw some texts from the girls and Storm on a group chat.
You: Hey, I'm here.
Storm: Wait for Mr. Daschuvell's driver at the airport.
Morticia: Reeed, tulog na tulog kami nun ni Nica. Hahaha. Ingat ka jan!
Sinairee: Hey, Red. Take care.
Recillien: Call us if you need us.
Geshiane: Yup, yup!
Zenuxienaiah: Tell me if red parin kwarto mo jan ah. San ka ba titira?
You: Daschuvell's residence.
Morticia: ABA PUTA NAMAN, RED! Ang swerte ahh! Bigtime!
You: Ulol.
Sinairee: Words, ladies. Leave Red alone. She have some work to do. We also have some too. Training room. Gunner's waiting.
Zenuxienaiah: Bye, Red! We love 'ya.
I chuckled at their replies when a hand suddenly taps my shoulder. My instincts went off and gripped the wrist. I turned around in frown and then immediately softened when I saw Axl.
"M-Ms. Red- ow-" He yelped and I loosened my grip.
"Gamiménos! Are you okay? What the fuck are you doing here?" I whisper-yelled him as I check his wrist.
"I-I'm Mr. Daschuvell's driver. I came here to drive you to his residence. Follow me." He said, massaging his wrists and walked away, still groaning.
I grabbed my bag, pulled my suitcase and followed him to the car. I entered the backseat and plugged my earphones. I heard him go in and I saw him, still massaging his wrist.
"Hey. You'll be fine. You ain't dying. Now drive. I'm sleepy." I said yawning and he nodded. Later, we had a quiet trip through buildings and lights of France.
