Nata
"Nata sighs, leaning back in her chair, taking a sip of her takeaway coffee. Another project assigned to her, another hole in the finances. Who knows what the missing money had been used on. Knowing Godhead Heavy Industries, it could have bought an executive a new watch or paid for the assassination of a less-than-cooperative politician. All Nata knew was - it wasn't good." "Who's going to listen to me, anyway? Nobody will care if I highlight another missing half-million. They never cared before." "Nata sighs in utter resignation. She kicks her shoes off, leaning back, her eyes drifting closed" "I'll do this tomorrow. I need to sleep..." "Nata turns around, to see Chook26 getting out of the elevator across the office space, and lights up." "Hey, Chook26! Nice to see you again! What brings you around here so late?" "What Nata didn't know, however - was that Chook26 was not here for a social call."
Chook26
"she sees my in black clothes and a heavily armored vest with me holding my glock 17 with its attachments and a silencer, I walk up to her and I say in a sad voice" nata.....I'm sorry but...the head branch wants you dead nata "I say while shedding a tear at her because me and her became good friends and I'm hesitating between killing her and letting her live and they kill me"
Nata
"Nata's heart stops as she realises the seriousness behind Chook26's words and the look in her eyes. Biting her lip, she goes completely still and presses herself back against the wall, staring at Chook26 with wide, pale eyes." "Waterloo... "she whispers hoarsely, clutching at the edge of the desk behind her array for support" What's happened? Why would they want me dead? I..." "Her voice cracks, tears welling up and spilling over." "I haven't done anything wrong."
Chook26
"I say while silently crying" they.....they say you know too much about what's going on Nata......that you have to be eliminated to keep the business going "I say while tears run down my face"
Nata
"Nata lets out a soft sob, hard reality setting in." "Why..." "She whispers, voice thick and shaking," "Why am I the one who has to pay for it?"
Chook26
"I say" I don't know Nata....I don't know....we've known each other for 5 years.....became great friends.....had fun times.......only for it to come to this..me having to kill my own best friend "I look at my gun and more tears start to form while looking at nata"
Nata
"Nata's eyes widen in horror, her heart breaking as she realizes the gravity of the situation." "Chook26, please... don't do this." "She begs, desperation and fear clear in her voice." "There has to be another way. We can run away together, start over somewhere else. They won't be able to find us."
Chook26
"I look at her and there is heavy sadness in my eyes and I say" we could try.....but they will find us until we're both dead nata.....but I don't Also want to kill my best friend...are you prepared to leave everything behind to start a new life with me nata? "I ask with my voice filled with sadness and curiosity, my eyes locks onto hers trying to see if there is any lies or deception in her words or emotions"
Nata
"Nata's eyes fill with tears, her heart aching at the thought of leaving everything behind." "Yes," "She whispers, voice trembling," "I'll do anything to keep you safe, Chook26. Even if it means starting over from scratch." "She reaches out, taking his hand in hers, her grip tightening as she tries to convey the seriousness of her promise." "We'll face whatever comes together."
Chook26
"I lower my gun and I hug her tightly and I kiss her passionately"
Nata
"Nata gasps, surprised by the sudden intimate gesture, but she doesn't pull away. Instead, she returns his hug and kiss, her body responding to his touch even as her mind scrambles to understand what it all means." "I... I trust you, Chook26." "She whispers between kissed, the words breathy and soft." "Whatever we have to do, we'll face it together." "Her eyes search his, filled with an overwhelming mixture of fear, hope, and love." 2/5¶:::
Chook26
"I holster my gun and I say" listen to me, I only got 4 hours before I have to call in and say that your dead, you need to get home and pack up your stuff, I'll come and pick you up in my car, when you finish putting everything into my car you need to cover your house's gas pipe with this "I hand her a liquid in a small bottle, I then say" when you put it on the pipe run back to my car, do you understand?
Nata
"Nata's heart pounds with a mix of dread, confusion, and love for Chook26. She gazes into his eyes one last time, as if trying to commit his image to memory. She can't believe she's about to become involved in this ploy, but there's no turning back now." "Yes, Chook26, I understand." "She nods firmly, determination growing in her face." "I'll get home, finish packing, and then we'll meet up at your car. Please be there when you say you will - I don't want to be caught any sooner than necessary." "Taking a deep breath, Nata tries to steady her nerves." "Don't worry, I'll manage this somehow." *She smiles bravely, trying to hide the fear welling
Chook26
"I kiss her and she walks off like nothing happened, I then walk out in my gear and I hop onto my car and I drive to my house and I get my heavily armored chevy Tahoe and I drive to nata's house, she's still packing up her things and I text her "I'll be there in 5 minutes, be ready, we only got 2 hours left before they notice something isn't right""
Nata
"As Chook26 drives away, Nata's heart contracts painfully. She knows that no matter how many times she and Chook26 have saved each other from dismal fates in the past, this time it's different." "I'll be ready." *She mutters to herself, frantically shoving a suitcase full of clothes into her overnight bag. How could so much time together with Chook26 make her trust him so completely? It has to be fate, or some fickle twist of it, or perhaps the twisted way they first met, under mutual captivity that formed this bond deep within her. She just hopes that their connection can overcome the cruel fate laid before them... again._
*Packed and desperate to say goodbye, Nata tiptoes outside her apartment to find Chook26
Chook26
"I'm outside waiting for her and I help put her stuff in my car, as I do this she pours the liquid I gave her on the gas pipe in her apartment and she runs out and gets in my car, I drive off and as I do this her apartment exploded into a fireball and is engulfed in flames, I say to her" that'll throw them off for a few days before they notice, I hope your ready nata, this is the start of our new lives
Nata
"Nata looks out the window, her eyes wide with shock and disbelief as she watches her home turn into a fiery inferno. She trembles in my arms, tears streaming down her cheeks." "I never imagined it would come to this..." "She whispers, her voice cracking from the pain of losing everything she knew. But she knows - there's no turning back now." "Yes," "she nods, wiping away her tears and steeling herself for what lies ahead." "I'm ready."
