CHAPTER TWENTY: WHAT IS A GALA?
---
"You want me to protect Five?" Lila asked as her and The Handler was eating pancakes.
"It's not that complicated, honey" The Handler said "If anyone deserves to die, it's him" Lila said "That's true, but--" "The most wanted man in the Commission" Lila said, cutting The Handler off.
"Yes" The Handler said "Now you want me to protect him" Lila said "That's correct" The Handler said "After everything he's done to you? He's the reason you got demoted" Lila said "Be that as it may...he's worth more to me alive" The Handler said before she poured herself some wine in her glass.
"If you want to kill somebody why don't you kill Diego?" she asked and Lila shook her head "No" she said "You sure? I think it'll make you feel better" The Handler said "Nah" Lila said before taking a bite of her pancake.
"Suit yourself. Pass me more syrup, will you?" The Handler asked and Lila grabbed the syrup before she poured some syrup on The Handler's pancakes.
"How is it going with little Y/n? Is she still clinging to Five?" The Handler asked "Yeah, like a baby koala" Lila said "Of course she does, she have only know him" The Handler said "How are we gonna kidnap her if she is always with Five" Lila said "Be patient, we either take her when she not with Five or we will wait till the right moment. We will get Y/n, one way or another. I mean Five can't watch her for 24/7, even someone like him needs break" The Handler said and Lila nodded.
"By the way, I ran into some trouble at the asylum, during the escape" Lila said as The Handler poured some more syrup on her pancakes "These three blond guys. Total cowboys" Lila said and The Handler froze for a second before looking at Lila "They're here already?" she asked "Wait, you know those freaks?" Lila asked "Commission muscle. Triplets. Like Huey, Dewey, and Louie, only a little more meshugahs" The Handler said "You sent them?" Lila asked.
"Of course I did" The Handler answered "Why? They nearly killed me" Lila said "Well, they have to make it look good. Right? Otherwise, people might suspect that we're working together" The Handler said "So they know I'm on the job?" Lila asked "It's all a performance. Look, if they wanted you dead, you would've been long gone by now, little one" The Handler said "You need to stop calling me that" Lila said "Aww" The Handler said before getting up "Listen to me" she said as she walked over to Lila "No one is trying to kill you" she said as she stroke Lila down the cheek "We're all working towards the same goal" she said "Which is?" Lila asked "Well, that's the thing about the Commission, isn't it? Some things just don't make sense... until they do" The Handler said before she brushed Lila's bangs "I like the fringe" she said before she patted Lila on the head.
"Protect Number Five at all costs. And protect Y/n too, and when you have the chance, take her" The Handler said to Lila.
"I don't know, Y/n seems pretty close to Five, so maybe--" "No. Five is not fit to take care of her. She is not safe with him, we can take care of her better than Five ever could" The Handler said.
