I stare at his eyes so deeply

" Do you have any idea about my struggle to stay away from these agent life? " I snaps " I was hiding in a psychiatric hospital, pretending to be sick just because I don't want everyone to find me! " I says " but then they caught me and let me out of there." I says " so then I decided to go to college, try to blend in like a normal teenager until I graduated." I says " and now 5 years later after those dark time, you ask me to go back?! " I says and he just stay in front of me, staring to my eyes now, he's probably thinking for a good reason.

"Do it for Tori." he says and everything inside me melt like a burned candles. " How do you know her? " I ask my voice sounds really weak now.

"She were in our side. that night when you were undercover she sent us your location because she knew something was wrong." he says "And let me guess, the woman who saved me is.. " I says " one of our agent, yes " he cut my sentence.

" We gave you time to heal, and see whether you decided to come back there or not, but you choose to leave," he says " Evelyn know that you're no longer on Jeannine's side when you left that is why she send me to.." now I cut his sentence " to bring me back and destroy Jeannine" I says and he nod.

"What if you turns out to be one of Jeannine's agent? " I say " If you trust me enough tomorrow, meet me at the train platform I will take you to Evelyn," he says "And what if I don't? " I ask " As I told you Tris, if you trust me enough" he says open his door and I step outside. "One more thing, Tris" he says and I stand in front of my door and he stand so close to me " Let's pretend that we don't have this conversation, we need to keep the distance between us so we don't look obvious, " he says " We don't know how many Jeannine's agent are watching us in public." he says " Then you should go back to your house now." I say and smile to him when he look away, but then I know he smiles back when he enter his house.

That night I spent few hours thinking whether I should go back or not, then I remember my journal which is contain with my writing for my book, I take it out from my shelf and burn it in a fireplace.

I don't have to continue my story, I don't need to. for a moment I realized, I don't write them because I want to publish it, I write it because I need to get rid of them from my head.  I haven't reach the ending of the story, but I burned it already because I know the story will never have a happy ending, and it's time for a plot-twist.

The next morning I wear my grey coat and take a walk to the train platform, I decided to trust him.

Once I reach there I see him, He is already there.
He's wearing a black jacket with a hood, headphones hanging on his neck, he stand few feet away from me " We need to keep the distance between us " he said last night

"We don't know how many Jeannine's Agent are watching us now" his words echo in my head.

I see him get in to the 2nd car while i'm on the first one. The train is full of people, I can't see him clearly from here. few minutes after the train leave the platform someone walks toward me step by step, now he's standing beside me, Tobias.
He wear his hood now.

"You said we need to keep the distance between us." I say without looking at him "Don't worry, we clear her." he says

Few minutes later Tobias lead the way and we get off from the train. We walk around Grand Ave, where is he taking me? He lead me to a small shop, It is small from outside, But once we enter Tobias tap several code on the left, and then the shelf moving, of course, It's a hidden headquarters.

He lead me to enter.

Inside, a lot of people milling around, some of them bringing files on their hands, some shouting to one another, it's really crowded and loud here, but no one can hear anything from the outside.
