He walks into the dining room, wearing a grey sweatpants, she smiles at their AUS( accidental uniform sydrome). he comes over to her and leans in, she pecks his right cheek.

"so, what weirdly creative, deconstructed breakfast, do you have for me today "he asks smiling, his question makes her chuckle.

"well today, we are just having pain au chocolat" she said resting her elbows on the table.

"and that is....?"

"Its just croissant with chocolate in it" she said chuckling at how luxurious it sounded in french. she took a sip of her coffee leaving khaleefah in a laughing stream.

"what?" she asked, as Alhandro dropped their 'pain au chocolat' on the table.

"you have a little" he started and then used his thumb to clean off the thick coating just above her upper lip."you had a foam mustache" he said.

"so, what are you up to for today?" she asked taking a bite.

" well...I have work and then a meeting at five, so I should be home by..... maybe seven" he said.

"promise"she asked lifting her brow.

"Insha'Allah. he said checking the time confirming whether he could meet up to his promise,

"you sound like my dad when I was little, because insha'Allah meant never or ....." I started.

"In the next thirty years" he continued chuckling.

"exactly." she said finishing and standing up from the rather large chair she chose to sit on.

"I'll call you "he said grabbing her hand pulling  her close to his chest.

"now you sound like highschool boy helplessly inlove" she said chuckling, he smiled leaned in and kissed her lips. " its because i am" he said leaving zareefah with a triggered temperature.

"see you later" he said heading towards the door.

"I hope" she said in a sigh. she packed her bags and off to work too.

"why, do you want to save her"

"first of all, anyone close to kautar is the walking dead, and second of all, she is just fifteen" Imran said not looking up from his computer.

"I get you but I'm still not convinced, and she's just fifteen so she probably doesnt know what the good things in life are" luther said

"we cant just spend arms on a person that is not resourceful to us, do you know how much they've spent on new arms, and their new recruits will kill you instantly............but you know nothing a little cash can't do." luther added

silence.

"I think we should help her" haydar said

"I'm with haydar" khaleefah said standing up from his chair, he took a gun from the table." let's go"khaleefah said.

"wait!" Imran exclaimed, making Haydar freeze to the spot."you cant go there alone, you crazy?"Imran said.

"okay, you're obviously not helping, so what do you expect us to do? watch a fifteen year old die in vain?" khaleefah said, getting impaitent.

"you can go, I'll send back up" luther said.

khaleefah and haydar turned to leave, until luther cleared his throat making it conspicuous he was trying to divert their attention.

" a little thank you wont hurt" luther said smirking knowing what will happen

khaleefah and haydar rolled their eyes in sync, and left.

***************

"how could you be so careless! how do you expect me to call his wife and tell her he was shot in the leg?!!!!" luther exclaimed.

"I told to wait for back up" luther added.

"well would you stop yelling at me and help me get him to the hospital" haydar shot back furious and confused at how his plan failed, which ninety five percent of the time, always works!

luther with his heart pounding got in the car, haydar sped off not even caring about how fast he was going.

hey peeps.

hope you're doing good?

Is khaleefah making a wise choice by not telling zareefah?
