Resume the War
Chapter 116
Nakayuko lang ngayon si Cheska sa kaniyang desk habang sapo sapo ang noo. She is playing with a pen on her left hand.
Nakatingin siya sa isang dokumento. She already read it a lot of times but...wala pa rin siyang naiintindihan.
How can this be so hard for her? This is just a simple report made by Simon. This is no different from the documents she handled before.
She groaned and let go of the pen. She leaned and looked up. This has to stop. She has to do something right now. She has been slacking off for a month.
Mas madadagdagan lang ang kaniyang gawain kung wala pa rin siyang matatapos ngayon.
She is all alone in her spacious office. Wala siyang ibang nadidinig kundi ang aircon pati ang wall clock. The silence is deafening. Nakakabaliw.
Even if she goes outside, she would also be welcomed with this kind of silence dahil pinalayas niya ang mga maiingay.
And most importantly...the person who contributes most of the noise is now...
She let out a sigh at tinakpan ang kaniyang mata gamit ang braso. She felt her heart breaking. A tear fell from her eye.
She misses their noise. She misses all of them. Masyadong nakakasakal ang katahimikan na bumabalot sa kaniya. She needs them.
However... "They need to be protected..."
She couldn't lose more of them.
Muli siyang huminga ng malalim. Umupo na siya ng maayos at inayos ang sarili. She wiped her tears and convinced herself not to cry for more.
She combed her hair in frustration. Nakailang buntong hininga na ba siya ngayong araw?
"Cheska."
She immediately raised her gaze. She found Joshua standing before her. Muli siyang umayos ng upo nang may pagtataka sa mukha.
"What brought you here? Is there something wrong?"
"This is about Sean's shooter."
Stein and Xeyna are standing side to side as they wait for someone's arrival. They are standing in front of a building, on the side road.
"Are you sure she is here?"
"I asked Simon where she could be," he answered habang naikot ang tingin sa paligid. "Fortunately, she accepted a mission nearby. She has to be here. I got the details as well."
Xeyna sighed at sumandal. "I couldn't believe she is linked with that Lee. And...a Commoner? I saw her fight with Cheska kaya hindi kapani paniwala. What is more surprising, she is Alzi's girlfriend!"
"They were made to be our replica. That explains..." he muttered cautiously. "Commoners can be sometimes scary when it comes to these things. When it comes to experiments and inventions, they deserve praise."
"Perhaps the frustration of being in the low tier triggered their capabilities to create such...commoners."
Sabay silang napalingon sa kanang bahagi nang maramdamang may lumabas sa isang alley.
Anastasia paused when she felt four eyes looking at her. She blinked repeatedly.
Well, that is awkward. Seeing each other in public without masks...
"Mr. Han," she bowed slightly. "Is this some kind of coincidence or are you really here for me?"
Xeyna was caught off guard by how she called him. She addressed him with his real surname but not with the surname most of the people know.
