"Who are you?" the voice asked again. It's a man because of his baritone voice. They chasing me very fast. I was caught right away. I swallowed hard. How can I answer if there is something on my neck? I secretly glanced at what that thing was. It's a hunter's knife. And it looks sharp. I think he's a forester, so he has a knife like that. I slowly stood up straight and raised both hands as a sign of surrender..I really needed to get out of here. I can't fight now. My arm with a gunshot wound was very painful because I raised both my hands. The towel I was wearing was also stained with blood. And the man behind me didn't seem to care if I ran out of blood. "What are you doing here in my unit? You are trespassing on my property" the man said. I held my breath. I thought those were hoodlums chasing me. It turned out to be the owner of the other unit. "I'm sorry. Someone was chasing me from the other unit, so I switched over here", I calmly explained. I might be able to properly please the stranger. I hope it's effective. I think he's good to talk to. I tried to face the man but he just pressed the knife on me. So I didn't try to move. I don't want another wound. I might lose more blood. "That's all you're wearing?" he said hoarsely. Bedroom voice! s**t! "Yeah. Dressed like this. Can you let me go?" I asked the man in an expectant voice. As each second passes by. My situation here will be even more dangerous if the hoodlums catch up with me in this area. I'm a fool and a half, I forgot to destroy their CCTV. Look what happened to me. I'm in this situation . "I don't just send guests away. Especially when you're in my room." "Are you blind? If I don't leave here I might run out of blood" I said, annoyed. I'm starting to get irritated with this guy. "That's not my problem anymore. You cannot leave this room" wtf? I thought. I rolled my eyes at what the man said. "Then the only thing you're wearing is a towel. I guess you are not wearing any underwear. I hope I'm right" added the man foolishly. What the heck? "Pervert!" I yelled loudly, and turned with a punch. Maybe because of my sudden actions, the man was hit in the jaw, causing him to take a small step back. Just right for me to see his handsome face clearly.. Eh? Handsome face? I was amazed! What the- He looks like a Greek god..the pointed nose, the mischievous in his eyes, the jaw.. ​​it's all magnificent! and the lips..He seems to be a good kisser. A good one! For a long time, I stared at the man's lips. I saw how his lips formed into a proud smirk. s**t! It fits better. Where is justice? He is so handsome! "Love what you see, baby?" said the stranger in amusement. He still held the knife in his right hand and the left one was holding his jaw that was hit by my punch. It doesn't look like he was hurt at all based on the way he smirked at me. That's when I woke up from my admiration for that man. What are you, Klemea! That man is an enemy. Don't trust a stranger, right? His a pervert! My mind scolded me. That's right. I composed myself. Flirting soul please calm down. I removed the lump from my throat. "Let me out of here. Those chasing me might catch me, BABY" I said sarcastically. emphasize the word baby at the end. The rude man just laughed softly at what I said. Wth?- "Are you going to let me out of here or do you want me to hit you again?" I threatened. He might be afraid of my threat. As if he looked was afraid. "Let's see" he said. He ran towards me. On my reflexes, I quickly dodged the knife. The man just hit the hem of my towel. I looked at the man with wide eyes. He's really a pervert! I feel mad even more when I see the mischievous twinkle in his eyes. Teasing me. "Pervert bastard.." I said, shivering with madness. I rushed at the man and kicked him in the stomach but he grabbed my leg. I can't stand straight. He smiled mischievously. He even waved the knife in front of me. On instance, he tore the towel I was wearing again using the knife. And it's not halfway down my thigh. Just a little movement and my pearly shells can be seen... I want to scream! He pulled back and let go of my leg. I grabbed the knot of the towel before it completely slipped from the tie. Both of my cheeks were red with so much embarrassment. Grrr.. "Nice sight baby" the bastard said with a whistle! "Shameless bastard!" I screamed. I quickly attacked him. Without a second thought, I punched him in theface. I didn't mind the pain in my arm because I was so angry with the man. He did not recover from the shock of my punch. I guess he couldn't believe that I punched him so hard. Especially since I'm a woman with a gunshot wound. The man fell asleep! Knockout. I smirked and looked at the handsome man who was lying on the floor. It's a waste of genes if I shoot him in my annoyance. I picked up my gun. And I foolishly looked at the hunter knife he dropped. It was really sharp and managed to tear my towel. I walked around the unit and looked for clothes to wear. I found a black t-shirt and boxers short in the closet. It's big for me, but it's better than leaving the condominium wearing only a towel. I pulled out a handkerchief from his drawer and tied it to my shoulder wound. I also took a thousand from his wallet that I found on the side of the bed. I will take a taxi to Blanca's house. I am no longer safe in my unit. Someone already knows where I live. I first peeked outside the door of the unit to see if the hoodlums chasing me were still there. But I didn't see a single one. I let out my breath. I'm safe! I looked at the man who was still lying on the floor before putting on the slippers I saw near the door of his unit. It was too big for my feet but I didn't care and decided to leave the place completely. I FROWNED AS I WATCHED BLANCA FACING HER LAPTOP. I think we had our next target. She was seriously typing on the keyboard. When I arrived early, all I heard from her was a sermon. She said I was very stupid and did not take care of my safety. I was not able to destroy the cctv properly because of that the last one we robbed found me. Blanca also said it was my fault why I was wearing only a T-shirt and boxer shorts. The clothes are already big for me, even the slippers. Am I aware that the unit next to me is male? And the mouth of the man is rude. He's supposed to be handsome, but he's a maniac. I sighed. I felt weak, maybe because of my blood loss. Good thing, while Blanca was lecturing me, she was treating my wound earlier. I leaned against the couch in the living room. Blanca is in front of me. "Let's not accept another job this month. We have a next target", she informed me. Didn't even look at me. "What is our next target?" I asked curiously. "This" showed me her laptop. I saw an old gold bracelet. The shape of two snakes joined together to make it a bracelet. The two eyes of the snake have a ruby ​​stone.Beautiful to look at but scary to wear. That looks so creepy. It seemed like at any moment the two snakes would move and wrap around me. "Nefertari's bracelet. That's a lot of money,Klemea. Made during the Egyptian era. It was given to Nefertari by a pharaoh as a sign of his love for her." Blanca told me. Although the story of the bracelet is good. For me, the appearance is still creepy. Jewelry was mysterious in the time of the Egyptians. There are many back stories. I nodded "So, when we get that. What are we going to do with the bracelet?" "There will be an auction on the Black market. At the end of the month, we will auction it. Once we have collected the money. We can donate it to the orphanage," said Blanca. Most of the money we get is donated to the orphanage where Blanca and I grew up together. The orphanage is big. More and more children are being abandoned. So new funding for the orphanage is needed. It's just sad to think that many parents abandon their children. Many parents are mistreated or even killed, so children become orphans. "Then I'll call Boggie. For sure he will be happy because he will be busy again", I said. The boggie I'm referring to is our good friend. His best at making a replica of something. He can replicate anything. Name it all. "Let Boggie come here so we can discuss other details. It is better to be careful. It's dangerous to talk about other details on the phone". She took the laptop from me and typed on it again. "Copy!" my answer. "Your things in the unit. What's the news there?" She asked me after a few moments of silence. "The police are there to investigate" I said quietly. My irritation came back again. I can't admit to the police that I was attacked in my house because I robbed them of money and a USB. I don't even know the contents of the USB. Blanca smirked at me "take care of your mess. I won't help you" "Blanca!" I stood up from the couch and pretended to be a child stomping feet. "Help me. Don't you have a lover who is a police officer? So you can help me. I'm your best friend, right?" I begged. "I don't want to. And excuse me, I don't have a police lover." she growled. At the same time, she added "If you want help, come to Kelly", Blanca suggested teasingly. "No way!" I shuddered to protest. Just thinking about Kelly gives me goosebumps. Including her older brother who has a crazy brain. I will die when I am with them. She always match make me with her brother Johnson. Nothing came out of Kelly's mouth but her bastard brother. Her older brother would have been handsome but he was a pervert just like the man in the condominium. Especially when I'm with the two of them. My world is spinning differently. Literally! I still remember that one time I agreed to go on a date with her older brother as long as Kelly was with me. We went to the amusement park. The first ride we rode was a roller coaster. My stomach felt like it was turning upside down. So when I came down I almost fell while walking. I threw up at the edge of the plant fence. Being with the two was torture. They love extreme activity. And they always want to be with me. Honestly,I don't want to be with them. It seems like they are really crazy people. They were even considered top secret agents in a private agency, and they still think like that. Blanca laughed at my reaction. "You look funny" she commented. "Blanca! Help me!" I frowned at her. "My valuable things are there. And I have to move to another place. I'm not safe there anymore." "Wait! Where did you get those clothes? You really have the courage to look like that before you leave the building?" here it is again. Madam Blanca is going to lecture me. She still can't get over what happened to me. "My clothes are okay. Instead of the towel I was wearing earlier. It's even worse to see me go out like that." "What's okay with your clothes? You look like you've just had sex." I snorted, "You're rude." "Yeah I'm rude. Go into my room and rest. Put on some new clothes. They are in my cabinet. What you're wearing annoys me" she ordered. Like a child, I obeyed what she said. Do I have anything to look forward to today? This day is tiring for me.
