Yor hugged her pillow in her arms as she looked out of the window's view. The light blue sky and soft clouds had her eyes in a daze. Anya was already in her room, studying, with Bond by her side to keeping her motivated. Loid still wasn't back home yet and she looked at the clock. 6:21 PM. Oh no, I might need to make dinner tonight! Yor was a bit worried about were Loid was and if Anya's stomach was going to be ok after that meal. She hugged the pillow tighter as the sun started to set, slowly. Where's Loid-San? Did something bad happen? She looked at the front door to see if he would walk in any possible moment. What if...he's with Fiona again? When she saw Fiona and how she brought up Loid as her co-worker, she worried about it. I'm Yor's eyes, Fiona was a rather attractive woman and she couldn't blame Loid if he did fall for her. Fiona had the body and looks for any man. The other thing about Fiona was that she did bring up something about what Loid said, but she didn't finish. Yor could remember vividly, her saying something about him complaining about his housewife. Yor didn't want to be a pain toward them and maybe should've left the Forger family? There was always other families she could've blended in with. I can't! I'd break my promise with Loid and he already gave me that pretty ring..it'd be odd if I did too! Yor didn't even know that "ring" was a grenade pin, but she didn't really care. She got up and walked towards the kitchen and decided it was too late to wait for Loid. Anya is probably starving! She decided that she'd just make her stew since it was the only good thing she could. She started preparing dinner for everybody to enjoy later.

Loid put his hand to his head as he looked down to the files. So, there's first Operation STRIX, and now there's a side mission that could potentially crumble the mission apart? He sighed loudly as he bent down in his chair, elbow on his thigh, with his hand under his chin. Fiona and a few other agents walked into the room. "Go, take care of something else right now." The agents nodded as they departed from that room. Fiona walked back up to Loid and said next to him. "So, how's the missions going?" Loid shrugged as he fixed his posture. "I mean, they're having me doing the crucial mission for world peace, and a mission about some important files!" Fiona touched his shoulder and said, "Twilight, you'll do fine. Your one of the greatest agents in WISE. You can balance a few missions on your head, it's not the end of the world." "Thanks, Fiona." Fiona kept her blank face on, but she was screaming on the inside. "Now, w-we have another mission assigned together. It's about that document one on your right." She pointed at the right file, as Twilight opened it, looking at its containments. "Says here that we need enter a highly watched museum with other securities luring around it." "Yes, we need to take one of the famous artifacts in there, which has a code mark for the next step." Loid nodded. "We're doing this together?" Fiona nodded as well, bringing up a picture. "We need to, since we're posing as a young couple who had went there to enjoy the arts there." Loid raised an eyebrow listening to her. "Couple? Can't I just bring Yor and Anya and have you pose as a close friend?" Fiona shook her head in disagreement. "No, act-" Fiona cut herself off right there. The idea wasn't bad, probably good enough so if any other neighbors from the apartment complex had seen them, they wouldn't raise any suspicion. But, Fiona really did want to hear the words as a girlfriend from Loid. Fiona fixed her sleeve as she continued. "We need to pose as a couple, since the Handler has ordered it. She's worried if those two screw up anything. It's better if they don't tag along." Loid nodded as he got up and took his coat. "Well, I need to head back home. I'll call you later tonight about the plans. Besides, if I don't go back, I'll probably raise even more unnecessary suspicion from those neighbors." Loid took his coat and wrapped it around himself, exiting the room. Fiona sat down and sighed in a rather happier tune. At last, me and twilight will be able to enjoy something together!

"Mama, where's Papa?" Yor looked worriedly at the clock, 6:53 PM. "Oh gosh, Loid-San still isn't home!" Thunder roared and rain poured. Yor shivered at the sound and anxious for Loid's safety She looked back at Anya and started to set the table. "He's probably just running late, he'll definitely be back anytime soon. Why don't you eat for now, then we can wait for your father." Anya nodded as she ran to the counter to grab 3 pairs of utensils to place at the table. She sat down as she waited for the dinner and Loid. "Mamaaa...Anya longs for Papa now!" Yor smiled to keep Anya happy but she didn't know where Loid was either. "Here, you can eat now, Anya-San!" "Yay! Stew!" Yor was happy that Anya was excited for her food. Yor sat down and ate a portion of her stew, sipping each spoonful. Anya sipped every last bit she could and took her bowl to the counter. "Anya-San, you can watch a bit of cartoons and go to sleep afterwards!" "Yay! Spy Wars!" Anya ran to the television and turned it on, staring at the screen if Bondman and Princess Honey. Yor started finishing the dishes and looked at the window as she scrubbed plates. She could hear rain start to pour onto the window's glass, one by one. She could also hear Anya's humming and singing. Du-du,du-da! Yor was glad that at least Anya was having a good time. Hopefully Loid-San is ok..

  Crap, I'm running late! Loid held onto his fedora and ran down the street, rushing home. It was pouring rain, harshly, and he didn't want Anya and Yor worried. He checked his phone and looked at the time, 7:34 PM. He looked at his contacts list and saw a few messages from Yor. I need to get there fast. He rushed towards the door or the apartment complex. He could see the chattery neighbors talking about weather down the hall, already settling themselves down to sit down on the lobby chairs. They're attention went up to Loid and they chuckled. "Oh, Mr. Forger, how are you doing today?" Loid held his tongue back and responded warmly. "I'm doing fine, was just running late from the job. How are you ladies doing?" Loid really didn't want to start anything. He just wanted to greet them for a second and then leave to go back upstairs. "Oh, oh, we're fine. Why in a hurry from your job though?" Loid's feelings dropped and knew they were trying something even thought he literally just told them. "It was just overtime, so I was held back to take care of a few other patients." They raised they're eyebrows and cackled a bit more before they waved goodbye to Loid as he walked up the stairs. Finally, no more missions for the week, no more nosy neighbors, and finally relaxation. He walked up to the front door and took his keys from his bag. As he turned and unlocked it the doorknob, he dropped his bag and keys. Laying on the floor, crying near her body. Loid's eyes looked down at the floor, and then the masked men.
