Chapter 2

Pagdating sa mansion ay agad akong dumeretso sa study room. Nakita ko si Papa na naka upo sa swivel chair niya at nasa kaharap na sofa si Kuya Levi , Shein and Kuya Killian.

Napatingin sila sa dereksyon ko. Nakangisi namang nakatingin sakin si kuya Levi na inirapan ko na lang.

Umupo ako sa single sofa kaharap ni Kuya Killian.

I crossed my legs and arms on my chest as I'm listening for what Papa will say.

"You have your first mission together," panimula ni Papa.
I'm surprised also with my brothers, except for kuya Killian. I guess he's expecting it since we're all here.

"And what mission?" Kuya Shein interrupted.

"To kill Mr. Carter"

Oh, the famous young mafia boss. Mr. Alexander Mattius Carter. I don't know much about him but as I've heard, his parents is gone so he have to manage their companies together with the mafia.

Papa hate him so much , money I guess? He want to kill Carter but he's not powerful like his. Papa can't stand over the Carter's. And my brother doesn't care about the Carter. They just do what my father asks them to do. Maliban siguro kay kuya Lev. My brothers have their own company to manage, kaya minsan lang sila bigyan ni Papa ng misyon unlike me.

"Hindi ba parang masyadong delikado?" Said kuya Levi.

"For a coward like you, yes Levi" sabi nito na nagpatahimik kay Kuya Levi, pagtingin ko sa kanya, di nakaligtas sakin ang lihim na pagkumoy ng kamao nito.

"This is our chance, one client also want to drag that Carter down, their family is powerful , so I guess we can join forces with them" -papa.

Magkaiba ang mundo ng mafia at assassin, we our powerful pero sa mundo ng assassin lang 'yon.

Our family is the most paid assassins dahil sa gusto nila ang serbisyo namin.

But in the mafia, ang mga Carter ang ka kompitensya namin. And my father is competent enough.

They are powerful also we are.

"Who's the client?" -kuya Levi.

"Mr. Dixon" simpleng sagot naman ni Papa.

The Dixons, they are the closest friend of our family, and only the close of the family know that I'm a Herris, daughter of Mr. Arnold Herris.

They are hiding my identity, when I asked Mom why, she said that father just want to protect me.

But I'm not a baby anymore that have to be protected.

Papa always send me to a dangerous missions without the help of my brothers so why bother to hide the truth?

And thinking about the possible reason makes me feel sad, maybe he is ashamed on me?

Umiling uling naman ako.

I shouldn't think of that things, they are not, Papa loves me but he don't know how to show it, that's it.

Kinagat kagat ko ang daliri ko, my forefinger actually, its my mannerism when I think about the things that makes me frustrated.

"Saveena has the big part of this mission," napatigil ako sa ginagawa nang marinig ang sinabing iyon ni Papa. Napatayo si Kuya Levi sa kinauupuan nito.

"Its too dangerous for Sav." Reklamo ni kuya Levi but Papa didn't mind what he said.

"Mr. Dixon also suggest a way to make this mission easier." Papa continuedly said. We're just silent as we listen to the 'easy way' that he's talking about. Masama naman ang tingin ni Kuya Levi kay Papa, he hate him that much.

"And that is to make him fall in love with you"

Saveena.
