Rosanna's P. O. V:
Staring at me incredulously, Kairos looked like he was withholding a laugh. Lips twitching crazily and the uneven breaths he released. He was amused, alright. But probably dying of weirdness internally.
“Don't ever do that.” He stated, ignoring my hands which I pathetically brought down.
“...Won't.” I whispered, biting my bottom lips hardly as I came to terms that my awesomeness has failed me. Or I failed it.
Kairos got on the bed and I turned around to stare at him silently.
What do we do now? I miss my phone. I would like to read a lot of novels right now. Especially chinese novels.
...I can use Kairos' phone.
“Where's your phone?” I asked, watching him get settled on the bed, burrowing his head on the soft pillows while his legs tipped off the edge of the bed.
He was how tall exactly? 6'3-5, I assume.
“Why?” Kairos questioned, peering at me with a curious look.
“I want to read online novels.”
Should I pout? Can I do that? Will it work? No, nope for both.
“Not with me.” He said, taking his eyes off me.
I pouted inadvertently for a split second and then I steadied my expression. It was saddening, really. I have faced countless life and death situations but a simple boredom would end me?
How infuriating!
I've slept enough today and I'm brimming with energy. What can I do? There doesn't seem to be a book or pen in this room. I'd at least be able to write till I was drowsy. But nay, the universe hates me!
“The reports came in while you were asleep. The good news- probably, is that Natalie is not your assailant. But the bad news is you have an unknown enemy.”
That... I find that difficult to believe. Natalie is not behind this? And I've got some unknown antagonist who wants my death? Why? In what way have I angered such an entity?
Kairos continued speaking. “An investigation was conducted and the end result is finding a woman with black hair and brown eyes, manipulating the Intelligence System to identify you as a threat. Currently, my people are trying to undercover the identity of the woman and how she got access into the Institution's central system.
It is possible for her to be sent by Natalie but Natalie is not a person who does sloppy works. There would be no evidence or face to trace. So I do not think Natalie is responsible. However, there's still a possibility that she might have become stupid with jealousy and have done something foolish.”
“Well, that's some analysis.” I said. “The... Woman who manipulated the Central System, may I see her face?” Oddly I felt I might have better clues if I see the newest antagonist on my list.
“Tomorrow.” Kairos promised.
“Kay.” I replied. Then we descended into silence.
