The light coming through the window, who’s laying down beside her, has been looking at her wavy bloody hair for a couple of minutes until he decides to touch her closed eyes, she wakes up and her obsidian eyes meet him once again.714Please respect copyright.PENANAmzx8DYWOfI
“James…” Anais says moving her hand up and down across the bed looking for something or someone. Feeling nothing she sat up looking at the empty side of the bed until her alarm went off.714Please respect copyright.PENANAgJP7ZVEAya
“I miss him. I should probably text him,” she turned around and was about to take her phone until she sneezed making almost all the mucus in her nose come out.714Please respect copyright.PENANAFQQrhzCCYd
“Great, now I’m sick,” she says with one hand on her face and the other under her chin, preventing herself from making a mess.714Please respect copyright.PENANAmyGXaMFO2A
Finishing cleaning that sticky situation she got out of the bathroom rapidly, but her line of thinking stopped the moment she stood out of the bathroom.714Please respect copyright.PENANAEMqF5TWOvV
“I was about to do something with my phone… What was it?”714Please respect copyright.PENANAU3cNSPImeb
Remembering that she had forgotten something but not knowing what it is, recently became normal to her and with no intentions of dealing with it at 7 in the morning she continues her day.714Please respect copyright.PENANAJKAWLbvfk0
‘I want some tea,’ with this in mind she headed down to the kitchen and prepared some apple tea for herself while thinking about what she had to do for the day, until someone knocked on her front door, she got up and opened the door just to see a 5ft 9 looking blond child and of course she knew who he was.714Please respect copyright.PENANAULrY8TOQQN
“I finished my service in the military a long time ago and I’m unable to return due to my condition so leave, Ethan,” she says coldly to him while shutting the door on his face with the intention of not letting him even speak.714Please respect copyright.PENANAVgZtxPGMcI
“Wait!” He stops the door from closing with his shoe, “I just wanna ask some questions and then I’ll leave quietly.”714Please respect copyright.PENANAwwLJqE3HAg
She didn’t open the door but rather started to put more pressure, “How many questions?”714Please respect copyright.PENANA2NiXIlBJwn
Feeling the pain he responds rapidly, “Three, only three questions.”714Please respect copyright.PENANAC7nMYn8Mm3
“Alright, come in,” she stops adding pressure and lets him in.714Please respect copyright.PENANA36xnaw2EhQ
‘How did he find me?’ She thought to herself.714Please respect copyright.PENANAenJQIc5MTz
After he entered she closed the door and sat down at the table with her tea in hand, Ethan on the other hand couldn’t stop looking at her and he made it so obvious.714Please respect copyright.PENANAw9mTEwqFcC
She took a sip of the tea and then put it down, “Quit staring at me and sit down.”714Please respect copyright.PENANA2ReREvLvZ8
“It's just hard, it has been a long time since the last time I saw you,” he says sitting down, “and it was even harder to find you.”714Please respect copyright.PENANAN7q68m4CAA
She crossed her legs, “I know, that’s why I can’t figure out how you find me.”714Please respect copyright.PENANAhPtEw5NdkS
A visible awkward silence sat between them.714Please respect copyright.PENANAb2nSNZVN3T
“How have you been? To be honest I couldn't bring myself to imagine you in casual clothes, neither the others, talking about them, Lisa—”714Please respect copyright.PENANANwkPElBg33
“Can you get straight to the point, Ethan,” she interrupted him.714Please respect copyright.PENANAzK367sL7pe
“Anais, you…” Ethan says, surprised by her rude and cold attitude, “does my presence irritate you that much?” His voice changed.714Please respect copyright.PENANAUn2PslUW8O
She took the last sip of the tea and got up, “Didn't I teach you not to ask questions if you already know the answer?”714Please respect copyright.PENANA4f0h2ycOR4
“Yeah but—”714Please respect copyright.PENANAZvMt6sqsxk
“If you are finished with your questions please leave I got stuff to do,” she once again interrupted him while putting the cup in the sink.714Please respect copyright.PENANAGXJzf1EDCW
Ethan turns around and looks at her in frustration and anger, “Why did you leave the army and abandon your people?”714Please respect copyright.PENANARaL3q1eSBh
She rested her body in the sink and crossed her arms, “I left the army because my stupid 2nd husband left me to die in the territory of the enemy, since ‘it was useless the thought of saving my life’ I quote. And I left the army because one of the enemies saved my life, so yeah, the people that I was supposed to protect betrayed me and the people who I was supposed to kill saved my life.”714Please respect copyright.PENANAPwM9h8Xgua
Ethan didn’t know how to respond or even act to this, Anais just stood quietly looking at him struggling with her truth until someone knocked the door, she walked to the entrance and opened the door.714Please respect copyright.PENANAKGfcOvXbUI
“James…?” Her eyes widened in surprise to see him.714Please respect copyright.PENANAW0DXGP9PSt
“We’re not finished talking,” Ethan says pointing a gun to her head, “I got one last question. Yes, Gabriel abandoned you to die but why didn't you come back after his death in that plane crash? Don’t you love us?”714Please respect copyright.PENANAvPwmgkQSln
“I suggest to you that if you are not ready to die don’t point a gun at me,” she calmly said.714Please respect copyright.PENANAC7kzq8iKMU
“I entered the army knowing that I could die one day, I'm not scared of—”714Please respect copyright.PENANAxGJKZp5yEi
Before Ethan could finish his sentence a bullet passed through his head painting the floor red. Anais didn’t flinch, neither cared about this, she just took a last glance at who once was her disciple and redirected all her attention to James who’s looking at the now dead body.714Please respect copyright.PENANAoSGnXVX6gr
She extends her arms and puts her hands on his face, calling for his eyes, “Why are you here? Don’t you have a mission?” She asks slightly mad but in a caring tone.714Please respect copyright.PENANAi2nI5wRzEc
“You didn’t text me a good morning today so I grew worried,” James responded instantly and honestly.714Please respect copyright.PENANAafCaG4bNSM
With her left hand she caresses the part of the scar that the patch can’t hide, “I’m sorry, in the morning I got a little sick and I forgot to text you, I made some tea so now I feel better.”714Please respect copyright.PENANA4793b6llPV
He touches her hand gently, he knows that she blames herself for that scar, “I got this scar on my own, I wanted to kill that bastard and I did so don’t blame yourself for my decisions.”714Please respect copyright.PENANAU1ejGbZbQI
She let out a sigh in resignation, “I missed you James,” she gave him a soft smile.714Please respect copyright.PENANAspkceergig
Without taking his eyes from her he responded, “I missed you too.”
