I Don't Hate You - Criminal Case Fanfiction

I Don't Hate You

Anya's Point of View:

After a long and exhausted mission, I decided to go rest in my hotel room. I spent the entire week walking, running and hiding non-stop, I did not have many breaks, so I am going to take that opportunity to rest for a while. Before I could start removing my clothes, I get a text message. Who would text me at this time? I hope it is not for another mission, because I do not think I will have the energy to walk properly.

It was from Asal. I still do not know how she found access to my cellphone number, but at the same time, I do not want the answer to that question. I have the feeling I will regret it if I ask her. It has been a month since she texted me for the first time. I immediately got suspicious, so my answers were always short, but she kept texting me. Her messages did not seem like she wanted to harm me in any way or to ask me about private information about the company I am working for. I did not get her point to text me daily for, her own words, "fun". I do not get this woman sometimes.

I opened my phone and saw her latest message.

Asal: Are you free tonight?

Me: What do you mean?

Asal: I'm asking you if you are free tonight ;)

Me: Maybe. Why?

Asal: Meet me at this place in an hour! ;) I know we are both in the same town~ Also, wear something fancy! See ya later ;)

Is she serious? Did she really ask me to go hang out with her? Also, what does she mean that she knows that I was in the same town as her? This woman... She pisses me off. Besides, why does she want to meet me? I am way too curious; I have to go and ask her. I took the last energy drinks I had, changed into the prettiest outfit I had packed and left my hotel room, locking it to be 100% sure.

I arrived 30 minutes in advance. For punctuality, of course, but also to inspect the building. She told me to meet up in front a giant mansion. It looks like some kind of rich party, with all those businessmen, actors and other rich people, I guess. I never went to those parties outside of my missions, so to be here, without a real purpose, it feels weird. I decided to wait outside so I can analyze the guests, to pass time.

It was 7pm. She showed up right on time. In the back of my mind, I thought she was just toying with me and made me come here just to laugh at me, but she was 100% serious.

Asal: Oh Anya, you came~ I did not expect you to really come, but I'm flattered!

Anya: I also did not expect to be here. I still don't know why I am here... Why did you invite me?

Asal: Oh, I didn't tell you? You are my date, honey!

Anya: Wait, DATE?!

Asal: C'mon, let's go, we don't want to miss the party!

She grabbed my hand and dragged me inside the mansion. Did she really say that she invited me to this party just for me to be her date? This is ridiculous! What are her true motives? I have to find out.

It has been an hour and I am more confused than I was in the beginning. We spent the hour by meeting some of Asal's "friends" and she proudly tells them that I am her date. I thought that her goal was to embarrass me in front of them, but no, I did not notice any bad intentions during those conversations. I was quiet for the most part, since I am not comfortable talking to strangers, but she did not mind at all and did all the talking by herself. Another thing that I noticed is that she did not share any information about my job. She purposely hides it for my own safety. To be honest, I have no idea of what is going on, so I am going to ask her when we are going to be alone.
