?THE
DIAMONDS?
(She likes him,
but he’s cold-hearted?)
Episode 19
By: Faith Lucky
Cali’s Pov:
A wild gasp ran across the room.
Whaaat?
A….A traitor??
My eyes dimmed immediately.
What’re they talking about??
“This isn’t the first time its happening” he further said.
“The Black Diãmônds always take out time to plant spies in our midst, but each time, we’ve sorted them out and wasted them.
“You know yourself. If you’re the traitor, I’d suggest you leave now before it’s too late. Because trust me, we’re definitely gonna find you and once we do, we’ll feed your corpse to the dogs.
“You’re dismissed” he concluded and left with his companions but the silence in the hall continued as the *traitor* got at everyone.
Diane,,Nina and I didn’t say a word to each other until we’d gotten outside and Diane hugged me.
“Oh! Thank goodness you came back in one piece. I was so d@mn scared and wished I was sent along” she spoke without a pause.
“Yeah…I’m fine now. Although, I’m just a little angry I didn’t get the documents. I was so close to it” I replied dolefully.
“Aww! How did it happen?” She asked.
“I almost got captured, but Nina here saved me” I smiled and looked at Nina who’d been quiet the whole time.
“Oh! Its nothing, please” she replied bashfully.
We got into the cafe and ordered for foods and drinks and while we ate, I told Diane all about the mission and how it went.
“G0sh! I guess Miquel must be angry angry we lost to the Black Diãmônd’s” She commented when I was done.
“I guess that’s the reason he didn’t show up in the emergency hall.
“G0sh! I really don’t want to face that anger of his. It’s terrible” she said with a repugnant look and I posed.
“What’s with his anger?” I asked, licking the cream off my finger.
“Geez! Haven’t you heard of it? Whenever he gets angry, he starts bleeding from his eyes and nostrils and at that moment, he can kill within a second” she replied and I felt a little conniption grip me.
“Huh? Are you serious?” I asked.
“Well, yes. And that’s the reason I warn you not to get into trouble with him” she replied and immediately, I recalled the previous night.
Geez! There’s no way I’m telling her that. If she gets to know I stubbornly went to his room, she might get mad.
We continued eating and talking about other things and gosh! Nina was really the quiet type.
She barely said a word.
When we were done eating, it was already dark and Nina left for the room to get some rest while Diane and I went over to the recreational spot to feed our eyes.
A lot of activities were going on there – games, swimming, sports, lovers -time.
It didn’t look like it was night at all.
They were having so much fun but Diane and I only watched.
“Do you ever miss your family?” I asked after a little while and she shot me a stare.
“Well…of course, I do. Especially my dad” she replied a little soberly.
“Your dad? Aren’t you closer to your mum?” I asked and she smiled and shook my head.
“My mum has always been a pain in the a$$. Sometimes, wonder if she’s actually the one that gave birth to me.
“She gets angry with everything I do, shouts at me most of the time. My dad is rhe only friend i have over there” she enthused and I listened in amusement.
Wow! I’ve always thought all females were closer to their mums.
After a while, she got a drink and started dancing.
“Come on, Cali…dance with me” she laughed and held out her hand to me but I turned her down.
G0sh! I wasn’t a dancer, was I?
She went deeper into the crowd and got mixed with them, leaving me all alone.
Really? What a companion.
I watched her and shook my head, going to take some new air.
I walked away from the scene and got to a point which looked familiar to me
Oh my God!!
How can I ever forget???
It was the path to Miquel’s apartment!
Geez! How can I ever forget my unforgettable lesson?
I smiled and started walking along.
Somehow, remembering the incidence kinda made me blush.
What is wrong with me???
Have I forgotten I was actually crying in there??
G0sh! But that guy’s so cruel. I can’t believe he str!pped me despite my cries and pleas.
I wonder why he’s so cold hearted.
I kept walking and reminiscing over it and finally, I got to the building.
His window was open as usual and a soft glowing light was on.
Could he be in?
Seriously, you can call me stupid or whatever because I don’t know what the hell came over me. I just found myself climbing the walls, repeating the spider girl style.
But no matter how stupid I am,there’s no way I’d be going into his room.
Definitely, no way.
Not even if I’m mad.
I just wanted to have a peep from the window.
Yes, that’s all. There’s no way I’m going into the Lion’s den again.
I crawled onto the wall,making use of the cracks and poles, crawling pass other rooms and windows.
Finally, I got to his window and stood on the flat surface.
Slowly and gradually, I lifted my head to have a peep and my heart jumped into my mouth when I saw that image.
I gasped and lowered my head in shock.
Then, I replayed it and recalled he’d been backing the window.
Yes! He was backing me.
Slowly, I lifted my head again and caught the sight of him and indeed, he was backing the window.
He stood, facing his drawing board with a glass of wine in his hand.
Hmm.
How sweet.
My lips curved in a smile as I watched him. G0sh! He was really so handsome, wasn’t he??
Just his back view was killing as well.
Muscular build, long hair like Koreans, crazy posture. I wonder who must’ve given birth to him. She must be so lucky to have him as a son.
Suddenly, he turned around and I almost tripped due to the speed I’d used in lowering my head.
Whaaaaat??
Why did he turn around??
My heart beat rapidly as I stood under the window.
Okay; I think I’ve overstayed my welcome. Its high time I leave.
I was about making a move when a liquid rushed down from the window and poured on me.
Oh my God!!!!!!
A little of it poured on my lips and I discovered it was sweet and….
It was wine!!
His wine!!!
He’s pouring his wine on me!!?
Holy Christ!!!
Does he know I’m here???
