AGENT Series: The Best Mistake (FINISHED)

Chapter 9

Caleb's training is already done and by tomorrow we'll be flying to South Korea already.

"Has Caleb arrived already?" I asked Pontus.

"Not yet." he said.

"Just tell whoever is on duty with him to tell him to just rest today. I'll be the one to talk to him about the South Korea trip."

"Ok. I will."

"Thanks."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Is everything ready for the trip?" I asked Hermes.

"Yes. Here's the profile on it." Hermes said as he handed me the profile.

"You may want to send and explain this to Caleb too. This would be his first time dealing with a case. I don't want him to screw up this time."

"I will. I'll come by later."

"What's with Thomson? From here he goes to Busan then he goes to Sri Lanka and then now he comes back to South Korea. He's now in Jeju-do. I smell something fishy about this Thomson guy."

"That's what I think too. He keeps going back to Korea at least 4 times a month. I will research on that more. But you and Caleb can go anytime."

"We're leaving first thing tomorrow. I already booked a flight to Seoul. We'll stay in Seoul for about a day to contact with Aether there. Then we'll fly from Seoul to Jeju-do."

"You just made my job easier."

"Hehe. You know I like making your job easier. By the way, just give me the profile for Caleb. I'll be the one to explain everything to him."

"Ok. Sure. Here."

He gave me the profile for Caleb.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was about to go inside the elevator when Apollo called me.

"Athena, I got something to tell you?" Apollo said.

"Can it wait until later?" I asked.

He didn't answer.

"Sorry Apollo, I got to go. I still need to do some things. So let's just tell me whatever you are going to tell me when I get back from South Korea."

"When is that?"

"I'm still not sure."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Is he inside?" I asked as Chronos as he was the one guarding Caleb.

"Yes. He didn't go out today." Chronos said.

I knocked at the door.

"Who is it?" Caleb asked.

"It's Athena."

Caleb then opened the door.

"Come in." he said.

So I did.

"I didn't know you are a neat freak."

"There's nothing wrong with being clean."

"Did I say there is?"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"We're leaving tomorrow, first thing in the morning. I'd just fetch you here. Our flight is Manila to Seoul. We'll stay in Seoul for about a day to take care of things. Then we'll fly from to Jeju-do where Thomson is now. Here's the profile. Just read it. The guidelines are already there and the information about Thomson's location." I said as I handed him the profile.

"After the case.." he said.

"You're free to go. You can go back to your normal life like everything that connected to Thomson and the agency never happened. That means you may want to gather all your things already since you are no longer coming back here after you come back from South Korea."

I looked at him and he seem to look sad.

"Do you have anymore question?"

"No."

"Then I better go. I still have a case to take care of."

"Can I come?"

"Well it can be nice practice for you. Fine. Just don't screw this up."
