Truth and Dilemma

The man is standing near the window looking outside the scenario, he was in his deep thought suddenly he was interrupt by the knock on the door….he slightly turn his head without turning his whole body….he smile, when his eyes landed on the girl…

There stands a girl in her complete black assassin dress….she slowly bow her head down showing her respect towards man….

“Aah! Skylar you came” its sound more like a statement than question while he slowly made his way towards his desk….

“Yes Master” she nods as she took off her pieces of cloth, revealing her face which has covered her entire face except her eyes….

Ivan gesture her to sit, “take a sit Skylar, I have something important to discuss with you”

Skylar slowly take a sit and look at her master urging him to continue…he sigh, “If I tell you….i guess you wouldn’t believe me so……” he trail while he look under his desk and take a piece of paper but it is not a paper but a picture….

“Take a look Sky” he said as he put the picture on the surface of the desk…before she look at the picture, she look at her master carefully, his oceanic blue eyes almost like shadow look back at her, watching her every move….carefully.

She slowly takes the picture from the desk, her eyes get wide in shock, she thought ‘how is this possible?’ and she look at her master Ivan and said, “I don’t understand”

Ivan smile at her reaction, “I know you’re surprised but what you saw in that picture is true”

Skylar confusedly look at the picture where she saw herself or a girl who just look exactly like her with other three people whom she didn’t recognize. At first she did not believe that the girl look exactly like her only her eyes are slightly different from her even though the colour is same.

 Judging by how they are happy in their little world, she knew they are a family which Skylar can only dream of.

The girl who exactly look like her was smiling and looks happy unlike her…she don’t even remember when did the last time she even smile, then again she don’t have any reason to smile like her, this made her feel slightly jealous of this girl.

She quickly shifts her eyes towards the man, woman and the younger boy in the picture they look happy as well. They look like the definition of perfect family, a family once she used to yearn for, longed for, curved for but now it’s all change.

All this year from childhood one thing she learn clearly is to hate…..this word make her strong and a tough fighter, she learn to shut down all the other emotion which led her to be a cold hearted person but she don’t care, she like herself this way only…..somehow she has managed to accept her cruel fate.

“Her name is Alseaya Hudson” Ivan speaks all of the sudden breaking the silence which made Skylar to jump back into reality…

“Huh!” she said confusedly looking at her Master….she haven’t heard what her master said because she was so engulf in her own thought.

“I said, her name is Alseaya Hudson” he said with the slight hint of irritation…usually he don’t like repeating himself but situation here is different so he considered repeating himself this time…he wasn’t cold as his son ‘shadow’.

Skylar nod before she speaks, “I don’t get it master? What do you want me to do with her?” she asked him confusedly, she don’t understand why her master is showing this picture…they don’t look dangerous at all and the girl looks like she can barely harm the bug…
