Lily's pov:

When opium and I got home, my husband who was sitting on the sofa watching TV turned around to greet us.

As he saw opium, I couldn't help but notice the colors fading from his already pale face yet opium looked at him with a mysterious look on her face.

Do they already know each other? How?

______________________________________________

The husband: greetings ladies

Lily: hey babe

Opium: hello

Lily : excuse me while I go bring some tea

Opium: of course

The moment lily disappeared.

The husband: listen opium-

Opium: I know, don't open that mouth of yours in front of lily, act normal and we never knew each other get it?

Opium in her mind " I knew he was married to another woman but I never expected it to be my own best friend"

Opium's thoughts were suddenly interrupted by lily's return holding three cups and a plate full of biscuits.

This time lily noticed the absence of the tention previously present between her husband and opium, but she ignored it and started chatting about the birthday cake.

Fortunately, the night ended peacefully.

The next day, lily and opium were relaxing beside the river when a dozen of well built men dressed in all black suits and covering their faces with red masks barged in on them.

Opium : lily stay behind a tree trunc and try to limit any sounds

And so she did.

One of the men: YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO KILL HIM YESTERDAY AGENT O1 THE CONTRACT WAS WAY TOO CLEAR SO WHAT'S YOUR DEATH Wish?

opium: geez Ian stop acting professionally  I almost didn't recognize you, don't worry I am the red widow remember? I let him live yesterday to Celebrate his last birthday, tell Malik to give me one more week

The unknown men went just like they came and lily ran towards opium and started screaming

Lily: WHO ARE YOU? ARE YOU A KILLER? LEAVE ME AND MY HUSBAND ALONE! NO WONDER MY HUSBAND WAS TERRIFIED WHEN HE SAW YOU YESTERDAY, RED WIDOW HUH? YOU'RE HERE TO KILL HIM AREN'T YOU?

opium: hey chill, truth is I am an agent in my dad's agency and they call me red widow cause I'm used to marrying men just to assassinate them and no I'm not going after you nor your husband it's my own husband. he went out yesterday so I couldn't kill him, and I waited 10 years for him just to let him get what he wants in life and then get my revenge

Lily: revenge?

Opium : he was the one who killed mum by a deadly bullet to her head

Lily : it's fine I understand at least  I have a strong bestie to defend me now do  you want to play in the river? it's kind of hot

Opium: let's go!...
