I leaned my back as I read her diary. There's nothing important here. "Do you need help, Alexa?" I'm looking at Xyna as she wrinkled her face. "Do you need..."
I'm nodding my head. "Can you hack CoreArchive main server?" I raised my eyebrow, as I support my chin. Xyna walked to my desk and start hack CoreArchive's main server.
"What do you want me to search anyway?" I put Mr. Pierre's note next to her.
"What do you think this numbers are?" Xyna picked the note and analyzing it. She furrowed her brow. "I bet it's not... a coordinate or something like that, right?"
Xyna nodding her head as she looking at the note. "I think it's sounds like a code, Lexa. Do you want me to decipher it?" She asked.
A code? What kind of riddle he gave me this time? Now I should focus on that hostess first. She's the witness here. Argh! I should be more patient next time.
I sighed and rubbed my eyes. "What if... we finished our task first? Hack the CoreArchive main server." Xyna nodding her head and continue hacking the server. A code... if it's a code, why I'm not realize? What kind of code you gave me, Mr. Pierre?
I want to dig up what's your up to. "I'm in!" I'm looking at Xyna. Great. "Who do you want me to search?"
I took a deep breath and sighed. "Let me the one who searching for her." I type her job on the search bar and that club name. Hallaway Club, I think? I scrolled up the page and clicked to the next page.
I feel bad for her. She's look young, but she should working as the hostess. Oh... your name is Isabella Martinez. She's an immigrant from Philippines, Southeast Asia, and 18 years old. This world still cruel for her to live.
I'm searching for her data inside the Red Sentinel's data archive. I rubbed my roughly. She's in Red Sentinel's bounty. Who dare to put bounty on her head?! I clicked her name. Red dots appears from the map they showed me.
Is this her recent location? Hm... from this map, I can concluded that she live nearby by the park. I draw a circle and tapped my finger. "Maybe..." I put a red cross on the middle. She lives there. What if I wrong?! Argh! I lose my instinct as an agent.
I took a deep breath and sighed. Should I resigned? No, I shouldn't feel guilty about it. "Well, never mind..." I should checked it to Hallaway's database to make sure my guessing is right.
I focused on my monitor until someone walking approaching me. Maybe it's Jynx or Xynaa who were walking to give me an update about Kenneth. "Who's that girl!?" I'm looking back and jolted. Oh, my God! Lynx. You... She smiles at me and giggled. "Xyna said you're in your warehouse so... I decide to give you surprise."
Fuck the surprise, Lynx. You almost killed me! I took a deep breath and exhale. "When you..."
"Take it easy, grandma. Inhale, hold for 5 seconds, then exhale slowly and repeat." I followed her suggestions. "Okay done. Now... you can ask me." She said.
I pulled a chair and pleased her to seat. She shook her head and handing me a letter. "I... want to say goodbye to you, Alexa." I furrowed my brow. Lynx bite her lips and rubbed her hand. "I was..."
"H-hold on, what's wrong with you?!" Lynx sighed, looked down. I hold her hand tight looking into her eyes. "Don't say you..."
"Yes! I'm pregnant his baby. I-I'm sorry, I can't..." she sighed and massaging her forehead. "I-I'm afraid if he found out that I'm a snitch, Lexa! I can't do this anymore!" People said, third time is a charm. Well, maybe this time I break her shackles.
I took a deep breath and sighed. "Comeback whenever you need help, Lynx. Save my number if you're in trouble." She's nodding her head and we hugged. For the first time, I can see the other side of her.
"Japan changed you, hm?" She lets go our hug, wiped her tears, and chuckles.
"Honestly, I... came back two days ago. I'm sorry I just... need time to think, Lexa. I still want to become your informant, but..." She sighed. "I'm pregnant. He said, he wants to responsible for my child, but... I'm afraid if one day I lashed out, and..."
"It's okay, Linda. It's okay." I took a deep breath. "It's fine, okay? Call me if you need anything. I'm not promise this for you, but..." I sighed. I don't want she to go, but is it what is it.
I tried to hold back my tears as I touched her belly. "Congratulation on your pregnancy, Lynx." She nodding her head. "Let's we have a picnic. Just... this is our..."
She's nodding her head. "That's why I bring that basket." I'm chuckling and sighed.
I wish I can assured her to stay, but... she's right. Soon or later, anyone will know who she was. It will become a threat for her and her baby. "Let's go!" I took a deep breath and sighed. If she wants to separated from me, it's fine.
I can reach her, so do I. We climbed the stairs together to my rooftop. "So... this is your... hiding spot, huh?!" I'm looking at my surrounding and everything like already planned. I did not answer her question because...
This is weird. What's going on?! "Lexa! Are you alright?" I gave her a thin smile and nodding my head. "I..." I can't hide my feeling towards her. "Linda. Are you sure you alright?" She stands on the edge of the fence.
"Why are you..." she sighed and rubbed her eyes. "My dad wants me to stay in Japan. He... already engaged me with a man, Alexa. I can't refuse him, turns out..." I'm waiting for her to continue her words.
"He already knew that my step-mother's death, wasn't an accident." What?! I thought... "I don't want my dad throw us in that rat hole, Alexa. I just..."
I hugged her for behind, put my chin on her shoulder. "Thank you, Linda." Tears falling from my eyes. I let go of my hug and pushed her.
I'm looking from a rooftop as she falls onto the ground. A loud sound heard. Jynx and Xyna approaching to the dead body, then looked up. I took a deep breath with tears keep falling from my eyes.
Flashback on
I took a deep breath and observed her. She's working for MI6? I punched my steering wheel and screamed.
I turned on my car and leave with an anger in my eyes. I took a deep breath and my tears keep falling. "Lim, please... turn on auto-drive."
"Auto-drive on. Where do you want to go, Ms. Turner?" I keep silent and sighed. I shouldn't trust her too far.
Flashback off
I stare in blankly as her dead body gets inside into the coroner's truck. "Alexa!" I'm looking at Cecilia who was running, then hugged me. "Are you okay?! Do you see the culprit?!"
The culprit is none other than me, Cecilia. She betrayed me. I did not answer her questions and sighed. Can I trust anyone after this?
