T.H.
(I didn't proofread sorry for any mistakes😩)Pulling up to the building I parked in my designated spot saying hello to a few people on the way up to the office.
I knocked three times before opening the door. "You know usually most people wait until someone says come in after they knock"
I chuckled and sat down in the chair on the opposite side of the desk looking at the older man. "I'm not most people Unc we know this. I need a favor." I stated bluntly.
Sitting his pen down he took a sip of his tea and threw his hands up. "No hi? Hello? No how are you Unc?" the old man teased. I rolled my eyes playfully sitting back and crossing one leg over the other.
"Hi Unc how are you?" Grinning he shrugged "Oh I'm alright. I wish my bonus niece would come and visit more for things other than business but I digress."
Oh god the dramatics.
Before I could speak up he spoke again. "But you don't usually ask for favors so I'm all ears. Everything alright?" I hummed and shrugged "Well I'm okay but there's a young boy who doesn't know how to keep his hands to himself. He doesn't need to die he just needs to be taught a lesson is all"
His eyebrow went up. "It's handled. Just give me a name. May I ask what happened? Is it by any chance the young woman you've been seeing?"
I huffed as he seen right through me. "We aren't seeing each other...we're friends!" He nodded "Hmm I didn't know friends buy each other dogs but what do I know" my jaw dropped.
"I'm going to kill Regina" I gritted out. He smiled and waved me off "Oh stop it. I'm just saying! Does she know what you do?"
I furrowed my brows "Hell no. She's safer that way." He looked at me disapprovingly. "You and I both know that isn't true. If it gets serious...you've got to tell her Taraji."
Sighing I nodded "It won't though and this is why. Plus nobody has ever seen my face when on a mission and if they did they're dead."
Knowing I wasn't budging he let it go. "Alright. Have you looked at that file?" I nodded. "Yes I definitely think she's undercover. Her tracks aren't covered that well but I'd be careful before sending anybody in. That may be just what they're trying to do."
He hummed in thought. "You think it's a trap?" I shrugged "Possibly. Either that or they are fresh on the scene. It was too easy for me to place her in certain areas. Then she all of sudden pops up in New York after what happened in London? It's risky. Is this my mission?"
Unc shook his head "No. You are on a break from being in the field you know that."
"Oh my god it was one bullet wound!" I argued. The look on his face made me sit back and huff.
