BIRDCAGE

TWELVE

twelve.

LUNA

I spent the whole day and the next day just staring at my ceiling, mind blank as the scene from yesterday continued to replay repeatedly inside my head. That was my first kiss. My first kiss got stolen from a man who's keeping me locked up here, chained me up when we first met, and we're basically enemies from the very beginning.

Stupid, stupid, stupid! Why did you let him do that? Why didn't you push him away and most importantly WHY DID YOU KISSED BACK!?

I let out a moan as I ran my hands over my face and heaved a deep sigh.

"My stupidity knows no limits."

I say. After what happened, Felix didn't come into my room for the rest of the day and even today. I'm not complaining since my alone time did help in processing that smoky sloppy hot kiss-

My hands instinctively went to my cheeks, "Great, not only am I stupid but I'm also losing my marbles." I hissed at how hard I slapped myself. As much as I didn't want to, my eyes landed to the door.

Why hasn't he visited me yet?

I shook my head. I need to pick myself up. I need to focus on my goal - to escape from here, to go back to my original life, and...

My hands gripped on the picture I was holding tight. I need to find whoever this is in the picture and I need Kai's help for me to find him so it is very important for me to escape from here and reunite with Kai. I can't afford to let these insignificant unfamiliar emotions get the best of me.

KAI

"Any reports?" Kai asked one of the people working for him. Everyone was busy, there was a lot to do but Kai still put Luna's rescue mission first more than anything else.

"There is one." One of the worker said, working on something in his computer and when he was done he turned the computer to face kai so that he could see it, "We found this on one of the cameras we managed to hack from Felix's estate. This person here is agent Luna's partner in the Union. We thought it was weird for him to go there so we dug deep and found out that he faked his identity and hacked a famous website, known for where you hire computer technicians online." he said and pressed some keys of the keyboard, showing a lot of evidences that Luna's partner did.

Kai smiled to himself. Luna praised her partner from the Union and it is very rare for her to praise someone. It just proves that whoever her partner is, he is one amazing guy that can even leave the Luna impressed.

"bring him to me, we need him."

An hour has passed, still no sign of any Felix anywhere. I sighed.

Why was I even looking for him? What happened yesterday is just something that happened on a whim, he just did that on a whim. It didn't mean anything so I shouldn't mess with my head.

"It just happened on a whim, Luna." I was now talking to myself. I am going crazy for every minute I spend here, the more I am going crazy. I'm already crazy, staying here just makes me more crazier than ever, "Just a whim" I mumbled again.

As I continued to poison my mind with the thoughts running around my head, I heard the door lock opening. My head, almost immediately, turned towards the door hoping that whoever will go through that door will be the one who I'm thinking about.

"Your lunch, ma'am" my face drops when I saw that the person coming through the door wasn't the one I expected. It was just some random maid. I turned back to staring at the ceiling again.
