-MISSION DAY ONE-




Angela

Angela is packing her notes inside her sweet crescent pink bag. She grabbed the remote from her wooden study desk in the corner of her bedroom. She wears her backpack while combing her long black hair, she points her remote directly above her head.


"Mommy 1, I gotta go," She said to the flat screen TV that is hanging on the ceiling. "I don't wanna be late for school. Tell Daddy 1 that I love him."

"Okay sweety. Daddy 1 loves you too."

Replied by a well-suited short black haired woman who has thick eyebrows. She sips on her cup of coffee while sitting on a clean white desk in a white empty room.

"Mommy 3 and Daddy 4 are probably waiting for me," Angela said, spraying her midnight sunflower perfume around her tidy uniform. "I gotta hurry."

She smiles then she waves goodbye toward the screen. She presses the red button of the remote to turn it off. She walks toward her wooden door while smoothly patting her pink skirt. She halts when she held the doorknob, a wicked low feminine voice blew chills throughout her whole body.

"24 days sweet Angela. You know the circumstances if you couldn't find The Eight," Mommy 1 muttered. "You know it so well. Don't let us down."

Angela gulps nervously, sweats are flowing down her cheeks. She walks toward her bed, she grabs the remote then presses the red button again. She leaves the room with a heavy feeling in her chest.

"Mommy 3 where is my-"

A loud sound of fallen broken glass has interrupted her words. The lady who is kneeling near the dining table pursed her lips. "I'm sorry, I dropped your glass of water." She picks up the glass shards with her rapid bare hands.

"Be careful mommy 3!" Angela said, walking toward her. "Stop touching it!You might get hurt!"

A loud beeping sound came from the CCTV camera that is hanging right next to the corner of the kitchen. It's glowing bright red while directly pointing at the lady who is cleaning the wet floor.

The lady looks at Angela, a forced regretful smile is hanging on her face. Angela's eyes got drowned by sorrow, knowing deep inside, the punishments of imperfect behaviours. A tall masculine guy calls her name who is holding a yellow lunchbox near the main door.

"Okay Daddy 4!" Angela yelled. "I'm coming!"

She wraps her arm around the lady's shoulder. She kissed her forehead then her soft lips moved toward the lady's ears.

"Please be safe Mommy 3." She whispered, but the lady stayed silent.

Angela rushes to the main door, and she hugs the tall man. She stole the lunchbox away by a fast swipe with her quick right hand.

"I will take you to school now sweety."

She nodded then she looks back at Mommy 3, he wraps his right arm on her shoulder as they leave the completely normal looking house.

"Mommy 3 is going to be okay, right?" She said while sitting on an average seat in an average grey car.

"Of course." The man murmured, driving the car to school. "She's going to be perfectly fine."

Angela glares at him with her brows that are magnetic towards each other. But the man wasn't bothered, he's just focusing on the road. She decided to look at the open window. She keeps on smiling because of the town, it is full of blooming santan bushes and happy old people walking down the street.
