"Shit!"

You winced in pain. You couldn't get the bullet out on your shoulder so you gave up and wrapped some bandages on your wound. You leaned your back against the walls of an abandoned van and sighed heavily. You closed your eyes. "God... that was so stupid of me. Why didn't I just kill him right then and there?"

"You're not a bad guy."

"I am, Mish. And I can't let you be in danger because of me."

You opened your eyes as you remembered a brief conversation between you and a woman.

"I've killed... countless people. I'm a monster."

"Because of your job. (Y/n), you can change."

You opened the van's backdoors and saw its inside was messy. You sighed and got inside anyway, pushing away unnecessary things out of the way, and set your things down. You sat down and wrapped yourself in your own hooded cloak.

"Go and find someone else, Michelle. I am not worthy of your love."

"(Y/n)—"

"But remember this, out of all of the women and men that I have fallen for, you will always hold a special place in my heart."

You shakily sighed. The woman, Michelle, was your former lover during your mission years ago. It felt like decades since you've seen her but it was only three years. Well, it was still a pretty long time ago.

You have moved on and you knew she did too because when you visited her when you were on a different mission, she has found a significant other. You were happy for her but you couldn't help but wonder if what would have happened if the two of you ended up together in the end.

You were fine but after breaking up with Michelle, you distanced yourself from dating. You didn't want a short-term relationship or have a relationship but would cause a great danger to the both of you. In your situation now, being stuck in a kid's body, it's likely you might find a girlfriend or a boyfriend in the next decade.

But you don't worry about it. What you worry about right now is your mission and how you failed to kill Five that instantly.

Couldn't fall asleep, you decided to do something. You got out of the van and looked around the empty streets as the cold wind approached you causing you to shiver. You found a phonebooth just by the other side of the road so you crossed the street.

You inserted a coin and started pressing numbers. You waited for someone to answer and finally, somebody picked up.

"Hello?"

"A.J."

You heard him coughing probably from his cigarette. "Red! Jesus! What's wrong?"

"Uhh..."
