6. The girl’s day out 2
*love comes when you least expect it*
“Girl, have you ordered yet?” Terry was trying to bring the situation back to normal.
“No, not yet. You know you are the pro at that, I didn’t want to embarrass myself, you know that this isn’t my thing.” Marina replied and she was right. She was very least knowledgeable about wines and cocktails. She will just drink anything irrespective of the taste unlike Terry who seemed to have all the knowledge about refreshments.
“okay.” Terry replied calling in the waiter and placed the order. she turned to Louisa to ask her preference .
“Anything is fine with me.” She replied.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
that being said, Terry ordered two fruit cocktails with little alcohol and a glass of red wine for herself. Everyone who interacted with Terry would notice her intense obsession of red wine. She had a collection of red wines in her wine cellar and getting a bottle from her was as hard as breaking a nut with your bare hands.
Their drinks came and the Three girls sat round a table sipping their drinks and catching up with each other.
They talked about all girly stuff.
Terry informed Marina that her father was trying to hook her up with a CEO. Marina knew that Terry was a rebellious girl and would never be forced to do something she didn’t want.
” you know what girl, that man was very arrogant. Yes, he’s handsome but he’s not the kind of guy I would date. He is always putting on a cold face and rarely smiled. no, he never smiles . I don’t even know how I am going to tolerate him since I’ll be collaborating with him in our new project.” Terry explained. she was half drunk and sounded like she was complaining.
“You know, I called him after the meeting with dad and told him I was not interested in him, do you know what he Said, that he’s not interested either. The nerve of that guy.” Terry gulped down her wine and ended up coughing hard. Marina started rubbing her back in a soothing manner.
Hearing Terry’s explanation, Marina’s mind drifted to someone. He always wore an expressionless face and his arrogance knew no bounds. thinking about him, she scoffed.
Why was his face appearing on her mind every other time?
“let’s sing girl.” Terry said rising from her seat and headed to the music system to turn on the microphone.
She then brought the mic to Marina.
“which song are we singing.” Terry asked.
“let me select.” said Marina taking the remote and choosing a song from the CD player and selected the song I’ll be seaside by Diana warren.
The sweet enchanting voice rung in the air.
“yay! I love this song.” said Terry already sitting up and started swaying her hips and singing.
All my worries worries
Am gonna leave them behind
Leave them in the city city
Leave them in somebody else’s mind
Gotta get up get up
I’m gonna jump on the plane
Leave my trouble’s all a
million miles away
well you can live your life
stuck on a traffic lights
walking down crowded streets, I’ll be
I’ll be seaside
sitting on the sand drinking a Mai Tai
walking up and soaking up the sunlight
sunlight
I’ll be seaside
watching all the seagull’s flying so high
looking at our future looking so bright
so bright, I’ll be seaside
I’ll be busy, busy
busy doing nothing all day
y Bailando con Toda mi Gente
They sung and sung, song after song until late at midnight.
They decided to call it a day and head to their homes.
Terry Left with Louisa and Marina drove herself home.
The day ended blissfully for the three women. They had had a good time and bonded well just like sister’s would do.
The following day, marina was woken up by her ringing phone. she groaned cursing whoever interrupted her sleep. She picked her phone and immediately answered.
“get ready, a mission in country C. I’ll send you the details. work closely with Josh and eliminate the threat.” the voice from the other side instructed.
“mission accepted.” she replied jumping off bed .
She entered the bathroom and took a quick bath .
walking to her closet, she donned black cargo pants and black leather jackets paired with black Boots. She picked her shoulder bag and packed her ammunition, a shotgun and knives. her twin dagger’s were safely tucked on her boots.
she randomly picked a passport from her numerous copies and grabbed a credit card, she dashed off the house.
walking to her underground packing, she climbed her red sports bike, ignited it and drove off.
Communicating in her earpiece, she gave her personal assistant at the firm instructions about the new clients to be handled.
“I’ll leave everything to you. I will be back longest after a week.”
Disconnecting that call, she conversed with her computer expert “heading to the airport, keep the coast clear and inform me of any possible intruders and access country A’s security system, am heading there for a mission.
” copy that.” came in a reply.
” queen, do you know what this mission is about and who are our opponents?” Brian the always behind the scene and computer expert asked.
“It’s confidential, I am still yet to receive the files.” she replied
The two had a great chemistry in their field of work. Marina worked on the open while Brian acted behind the scenes. Their actions were always synced.
Arriving the airport, she packed her bike and headed to book a plane ticket.
“Which is the earliest flight to country A?” Marina asked the receptionist
” In a hour’s time ma’am” she replied politely.
One ticket please, business class.” she gave her passport and credit card and after waiting for a minute the booking was already done.
” you can proceed to the waiting lobby and safe trip.” said the receptionist handling over the card and passport to marina.
“Thank you.” she said flashing her a smile.
She proceeded to sit on a waiting chair, removed her laptop and opened it. she still had time to study the file and research on the target of the mission.
somewhere in country A
” Mom, I just saw my sister, she is so beautiful.” Martina said to her Mom who was lying in the hospital bed.
” Mommy please wake up soon okay, I had promised to find my sister and I have already did so why are you not waking up?” Tears welled in her eyes.
” If you wake up, I promise I will bring my sister to reunite with you.” ” Haven’t you always said you want to hold your other daughter I your hands, I used every resource I had just to look for her. after I finish this mission, I am never going back again. I will take you to my sister, so please wake up okay.” she messily wiped her tears from her face and said with determination .
” just this one Mom, I will do it just once because he helped me find my sister. I will repay him that favour after that me and him will owe each other nothing.”
she stood up and kisses her mother’s forehead.
” just wait for me mom, I will be back to take you away from here then afterwards, we will reunite with sister and the Three of us can live happily ” she headed to the door and left but what she did not know was that her mom’s face was filled with tears as her finger moved
“Doctor, please take care of my mom until I come back.” she requested.
she walked out of the hospital and reached her pockets and took out her phone.
“Where and when? ” very straightforward.
” oh honey, I knew you will come around.” the voice on the other side replied enthusiastically.
“cut the crap, give me the details or I’ll hung up ” she threatened.
” mild dew international hotel, five in the evening. your purpose is to protect the big boss, nothing should go wrong.” she immediately disconnected the call not wanting go hear more of that crappy Man.
she went to their house, where she resided with her mom. she took a warm bath and dressed comfortably. Black camouflaged trousers and white t-shirts for a red hoodie.
She tucked her gun at the waistband and left the house.
the transaction was in a hour’s time so she needed to get there in time to survey the place before the big boss.
Martina never wanted to engage herself in illegal activities but growing up, they were very poor. she joined the mercenary group while in highschool. she would learn during the day and work at night. she worked hard and saved money to be able to support her mom. she also wanted to save to aid in looking for her lost sister.
