( Nobia's P.O.V. )

At six am in the morning, I changed and freshened up, leaving for the meeting. I saw Edwin on the way, and waved to him cheerfully. He waved back, and walked with me to the agency building. " You look happy," he said.

" What's make you think I'm happy Edwin?" 

" Your smile, your blushes, your cheerfulness!" he answered, smiling.

" Good observation, Sergeant Edwin!"

" Exactly!" he pointed out to me, acting like  smart ass. I roll my eyes at his cocky attitude, in response to his stupid statements. 

The room was more full, and Yokav was here, sitting and reading a book. I blushed like fire, remembering our kiss. The meeting was short, and Yokav was avoiding me! I can tell because of his short glances towards me, when I was watching him. " Okay, now that our systems are ready to be used, our Nobia, will then try to get in contact with her father, the NNS leader. So any questions, ideas, concerns?" 

" No, Sir," they all said, except for Yokav, who was still reading his book. 

" Good. Now there's another thing I need to tell you all importantly, " Edwin announced, " I will be leaving for Italy. I'll be gone for two weeks, and Yokav will be in charge, while I'll be gone. Make sure you listen Yokav, and take care of Nobia. Understand?" 

" Yes, Sir!" 

" I shall be leaving, my flight is in thirty minutes, Good bye, and take care," Edwin said, eyeing Yokav, and me to come with him.  

He sat in his car, and smiled at both of us. ' So typical of him to be smiling every time'. " Take care guys, and promise me that you both will work well with each other, until I come back. Promise?" 

" Yes, Sir!" Yokav said softly.  

" We promise to work well with each other! Don't worry!" I told him with assurance. He drove away, leaving us alone. 

" Come on!" Yokav ordered me. 

" Yes, Sir!" I mocked. 

" Don't call me that!" He stalks away from me 100 miles per hour. Yup! We're definitely  going to work well with each other! 

Two hours later.......

" You just don't listen, do you?" 

" I'm sorry, but your plan is wrong, and nobody even agrees with it!" I told the hunchback { Yokav } For the past freaking thirty minutes, we've been arguing that I should call my dad, tomorrow, instead of doing it now, without any practice. I mean, ' HELLO,' a little practice would be better, than giving my Dad a chance that I would be lying to his face, not less than a second.  Yokav slams the table, and I slam it back, showing my frustration towards him TOO. 

" Then what. Do. you want. to. do? Memories your lines for your movie?" 

" Yes, I do! Deal with it," I told him, flashing him my, ' In your face look'. 

" Get it done, and you better be ready by 6 am, in the morning. DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?"

" Why six, shouldn't it be three pm. I normally call my dad at that time around the day," I said. 

he pointed out the door," JUST GET OUT!"

" FINE!" I glared and storm passed him. " AND JUST FOR A FRIENDLY ADVICE, TAKE A CHILL PILL." Take that, Yokav, HA!!!!! 

The Next Day.....

It was time, for me to call my father. The agency somehow found his number, on my history, by simply calling the phone network ( Aka. Verizon :) ) to give us my deleted numbers. At first, I thought it was impossible, to do that, but with Russia, anything is possible. I practiced my lines all night, wondering how would my father would react. It's been two years, and none of us has spoken to each other. It may be wrong of me to betray my father, but he has ruin many lives. His game has to end! There are many people out there, who deserves justice, and my father has to pay the price! " You ready?" Yokav asked, shooting the phone towards me, in a rudely manner of course. 

" Yeah," I whispered back. 

" What, I can hear you! Speak Up!" 

" YES, I'M FINE, GIVE ME A BREAK!," I yelled at him.  He sat down and smirked at me. 

" Good! Now call your Daddy," he ordered me.  I took a deep breath, and dialed up his number. 

" Hello?" He was still the same. The same old, cold voice, who belonged to my father, " Hello, anyone there?" 

" D...Dad," Crap! why the F do I need to stammer at this time? 

" Nobia is this you? Oh thank God you are fine! I thought something terrible has happened to you, and I might have never seen you again," he continued, " I'm so sorry for treating you and your mother in a ill manner way, Nobia. Please come back to me! I miss you so much, I wish everything can be the same, when your mother was here." 

' Sure you do'  " I know Dad," I whispered, " Can I see you? I'm coming to Russia tomorrow! Please?"

" Of course sweet heart, I'll pick you up from the air port tomorrow, Okay? Just give me the pick-up time?"

" 7:30 pm," I answered him, with tears threatening to escape. 

" Okay dokie, See ya tomorrow, honey! I love you."

" I love you too," I replied.  He hung up, and I did it! I wipe my eyes with my sleeves, and remembered that Yokav was still in the room. He didn't say anything mean, but held my hand. It was kinda ironic for him, but I didn't care. 

" I guess you should relax. Tomorrow is a big day for you and for us!" he began softly, " Thank you for helping us."

" Wa...why are you being so nice to me? I thought..you...you hated me and you didn't want to see me again after our...our...kiss?" Okay, Okay, I know it's a stupid question, but I have the right to know. 

" Can I take you somewhere? I....want to make up for what I did to you. I know I've been an ass to you, but, because of you facing the same problem as I am, I feel bad. I didn't respect you, I treated you like shit. And you must be wondering why I'm so nice right now?" he asked, "Well....you just helped me get 50% of my job done. I'm sure Edwin must have opened his mouth, and told you everything about me. Right?" 

" Please don't get mad at him, it was my fault!," I pleaded, " I'm sorry for getting in to your personal life." 

" And I'm sorry for adding more pain to your life."
