A Devil Meets An Angel

Chapter 34

I was lazy to move around even though we have a mission that's going to happen a few hours from now. I rose from my bed and went to my enormous walk-in closet to look for an outfit which will suit for the event. I roamed around the closet silently deciding which one I should wear. I finally chose a red gown with glittering embroideries inspired by the medieval age all over it. It's also a floor-length gown and has a v-neck that's two inches below the collar bone. The back's fully covered though. It's made from silk which is soothing for the skin and it's also stretchable. I paired it with a black pouch and a pair of 6-inch pumps. I got my red mask with touches of black from it's drawer and placed it on my vanity table. It occupies the portion around my eyes to the bridge of my nose. I sat on my vanity chair and started to apply make-up on my face. I made it totally dark. It suits my mood at the moment. I placed all the needed materials inside the pouch and closed it. I clasped two gun-holders on both my legs and inserted a pair of gun after it. I made sure that they're fully loaded and I also have extra magazines and ammunitions.

After I prepared myself, I went out of my room and down the staircase to the very spacious living room of ours. I met my sister there and she looked at me for a very long time before having the ability to speak.

"Wow! You're a gorgeous chic, Ate! I didn't realize that it's really you until I looked at your eyes and finally told my sanity, 'come on, she's your sister, idiot...'"

"Thank you for your very nice compliment, little sis. Aren't you going to come with us? Why aren't you dressed yet? I am sure that it'll going to be fun!"

"Well, I wish I could but I have a lot of stuffs to do. You know how they go on and on, Ate," she said and mischief was clear in her eyes. We talked several minutes about random things until I heard the horn of the vehicle which we will use to go to the reception. I bid my farewell to her and I sluggishly moved on my way to the main gate of our mansion. I got inside the car with the help of our butler as he opened the door and closed it eventually after I settled myself inside. I talked to my parents minutes before I got dressed and they told me that they're going to go ahead of us to prepare the enactment.

"Ms. Altamira, we will drive thru Ms. Gonzales' mansion as per your parents' orders for us to pick her up," the driver told me while looking at the rearview mirror.

"Oh, sure, Sir. It's just fine with me. Thank you kindly," I replied to him politely. He started the engine of the car and as we passed away from our home, I fished my phone out of the pouch and texted Bea that we'll going to pick her up. She replied immediately and informed me that she's all ready to go. We arrived at their residence in no time and I saw her standing at the front of their gate as well. She circled around the car and sat at my left side.

"You're one hell of a specimen!" she said to me in a singsong voice. As I looked at her, she looks so elegant on her royal blue gown matched with a blue mask and a black sparkling pouch.

"So are you, Ms. Gonzales," I replied to her formally while smiling.

"Oh, c'mon, stop with the formalities and the last name bases, Sofi. We've known each other for so long and it gives me an uncomfortable feeling whenever someone calls me with my last name."

"It gives you a nice title, even so."

"Anyway, where are the others?"

"They're on their way, too. I didn't see them anymore after we parted ways this afternoon."

"Yeah. Me, too."

The rest of the trip was spent chatting about the tactics that we're going to apply for the mission to become successful and go according to the plan. As we're currently in the middle of the road, we noticed that there were convoys behind us and we acknowledged them as our friends' vehicles. They texted us that they did something important that's why they weren't able to come with us as expected.
