AMARA

When? That's the only word that keeps on ringing inside my head.

Kailan ako makakaalis sa lugar na ito? In the past days of being here in this unknown room, I learned a little bit about my savior.

First, he's not just any ordinary man. He's a royalty. Kung pagbabasehan ang tawag sa kanya ng mga tauhan niya, alam mo nang hindi simpleng tao lang ang kaharap mo.

Second, his name is Nikko. I don't know his last name since everyone is calling him Your Highness. Only few of those people calls him Nikko. I am not sure if its his nickname or first name.

Third, I don't think I can easily escape here. If the owner of this house or whatever this place is, is a royalty, then this place is heavily guarded. Hindi ako basta bastang makakalabas sa lugar na ito lalo na at wala ni isa akong hawak gadget. My only weapon here is my body.

I need to take things slow and recover.

Isa pa, may kailangan pa akong tapusin. The organization is a fucking liar and traitor. If they played me so well, then damn I will shake hell for them to taste my revenge.

Hindi basta basta ang pinagawa nila. They even killed my team! My best friend Reed! How do I know? He was shot during our mission! Hindi malabong gawin iyon ng management kung hindi magustuhan ang trabaho or...

Kung may gustong itago...

I need to look for answers.

Hindi sila papatay kung walang dahilan. Pinasok ko 'tong buhay na 'to. At kung lalabas man ako sa mundong 'yon, sisiguraduhin kong hindi na nila ako magagalaw.

Kailangan ko ring alamin kung nasaan na ang mga taong pumatay ng mga magulang ko. In all these years of searching, I always end up running in spiral. Dead end lagi ang dulo na para bang ayaw ipaalam sa akin ng mundo ang dahilan kung bakit sila maagang kinuha sa akin.

As I remember my parents, wala ni isa akong nakitang nakaaway ang mga magulang ko kaya bakit? Bakit sila pinatay?

Bakit humantong sa-

"Doctor Levame is here. He will conduct a check up on you," the man named Nikko said beside me.

I guess he sensed that I am already conscious yet I can't open my eyes nor move any muscles. After all, the last check up that Doctor Levame did, he told him that any moment I may gain my consciousness.

As an agent, I need to be sensitive to my surroundings. Hindi puwedeng dahil nasa ganitong kalagayan ako ay ibababa ko ang atensyon ko. I should never let my guards down.

I heard some creaking from the door. Maybe the doctor is in the room now.

Few moments, I slightly felt some hands unwrapping my bandages on my arms.

"Hmmm your wounds are getting better, Madame..."

The doctor treated my wounds. Ngayon, medyo nakakaramdam na ako ng sakit mula sa mga gamot na ginagamit niya sa mga sugat ko. Hindi din nagtagal matapos ng paglilinis, he checked my vital signs.

"What are you going to do when she wakes up, Nikko?"

Few minutes after the long silence, Doctor Levame asked. Pinanatili kong matalas ang pandinig ko habang nasa higaan ako. Ramdam kong hindi kalayuan ang puwesto nila sa akin.

Can I take a peek? Kaya ko na kayang magmulat ng mga mata?

"She might be the answer I needed," Nikko said.

"What do you mean? Are you thinking about the arrange-"

"Yes."

What are they talking about?

"Don't you think she might have a family out there searching for her?"

"I made sure she doesn't. She's perfectly fit for the position."

Ano daw? Ako ba ang pinag-uusapan nila? Ano bang binabalak na gawin sakin ng lalaking iyon?

What does he mean by making sure that I don't have anyone searching for me?

"You had her investigated?"

"Let's talk about this outside, Doctor Levame."

Who is this man? Masyadong matalas ang pakiramdam niya at mukhang naramdaman niyang maaaring nakikinig ako sa usapan nila.

And what? Did he investigate about me?

I don't think he'll get everything he wanted to know. I am an agent. Everything about me was kept hidden in the dark. Most of my information about my childhood were erased by the organization to make Amara Michaela Jones non-existent. I am now under the code name Fox. And that's the only information I have about me.

I am confident that the organization deleted all the files registered. Unless, he's an all powerful man who has connections all over the world or the best hacker and hack the organization's system.

"Good afternoon, Madame. This is Martha and I am going to change your clothes."

Evening comes and I can feel the cold breeze inside the room. Martha finished changing my clothes into some silky dress. This time, I tried to open my eyes and look around the place I am in.

The first attempt was hard. My eyes has been shut for almost a week and I don't have enough strength.

The second attempt, I can slightly see some lights from the window on my left side. And the blurry details of the room.

I am in no ordinary room. It's a room suited for princesses. Of course, I am in a royalty place. If the man named Nikko lives here, could it be possible that I am inside a palace?

But where?

Aside from England, where could I be right now?

I tried to recall my last location during my escape. I was in Greece. My savior found me in the ocean. Could it be that he's living near the area or just a passerby at this country? After all, he's sailing. I don't know anymore.

Finally when I opened my eyes fully, my vision adjusted to the dim lights from the wall lamps. The yellowish light complimented the scarlet red walls and the silver and gold furnitures. The bed I am lying right now was big that can actually fit 6 persons.

There are see-through silk on the four poles of the bed. The whole room speaks royal, indeed.

"I'm glad you're finally awake..."

I almost jolted on the bed when someone spoke at the far side of the room. Hindi ko iyon napansin!

"Amara..."
