ALL AT THE same time they almost shouted on what they’ve heard.
"You - you can't do this to me! I had a lot of work loads to be finished!" she just shook her head and seemed to panic in her tone.
"I cannot leave my business! I have a lot of clients depending on me" Clein’s protested too.
"Pan will going to kill me if she'll know about this." Troy seemed more panicked and worried.
"You're still together?" Jaime's mood changed when she heard it. She calmed down and seemed pleased looking at Troy.
"Yeah, I'm about to propose to her actually but - ugh!"
"Wait, are you saying that we have no choice of refusing this job?" as Yael’s gestured his hands trying to have some confirmation.
"It was actually an order." Deric answered him. "You are all a military officer and a reserve officers that when our country needs you, they will be summoned you. And here we are. Gathering you all for this job."
"But you said, this job does some confidential missions. Like what?" as Clein crossed his arms.
"Illegal transactions, human trafficking, robbery and even black markets. These issues seem common in our economy but it has a darker side where most influential people, even politicians are involved with this. We cannot hand over this to the government because some of them are also involved with those things. " Deric explains as it was the good deeds.
"You started to confuse and to amuse me." Yael said with his half eyes opened looking at Deric as he was also scanning him.
“Hunting fugitives, exposing corrupt government officials – even arresting one of the crazy rich motherfucker Asians, European, Americans and whoever! Such an exciting job, doesn’t it?” as he clapped closed his hands intertwined.
After a long discussion, the four had finally agreed to undergo the medical tests.

All of them has been tested and interviewed regarding on their health issues and if they all are physically fit to perform the tasks. Each of them has been also given – more like tattooed a silverly transparent tracking device on their desired body parts.
When they were all checked, they went to the top floor of the building. They seem surprised to see it as it is a house you would never expect to have in a building.
"This will be your home for now on. All your needs are in here, you can still live normally as you existed. But you are not allowed to go anywhere outside of this place unless we call you and send you into a mission. " as Deric make it all clear to them as if nobody’s listening to him.
"Wow, a sweet life of prisoners." Troy's sarcastic exclaimed again as he fell to the couch.
"That is for your safety. We care about you as we care about this country."
"Can we even make some calls? Or any communications?" as she looks at Deric wondering.
"Yes, you are allowed. But as we discussed, this is a confidential matter. You can tell whatever excuses why you have to get away from anyone but not the truth about this."
"Right." As she also nodded.
"Suit yourselves." then Deric entered the lift door to get himself down.
All of them seemed to be still and could not believe what was happening.

All lights are heat censor that will automatically turns on and off. It has also voice automated feature that will makes their staying comfortably.
“Mama Mia!” as Troy shouted and then automatically the song Mama Mia of Abba has been played all over the room.
They all been startled and confused.
“Ah? Hahaha!” Troy laughs at themselves.
"I'll go rest guys. Good night." and then, Jaime hurriedly left.
The three men had just left in the living area.
"LIEUTENANT Knox, nice to be with you again." Clein began to greet Yael who was just standing there as though watching.
"Captain Lore, the pleasure is mine." Yael answered to Clein.
"Hanep! Big time na talaga ang mga kaklase kong ito oh!" biglang sabay na akbay naman ni Troy sa dalawa sa pag-gitna niya rito. "Mahaba pa ang gabi! Let's celebrate this reunion!" nakaladkad naman niya halos ang dalawa at tila walang nagawa kung hindi sumunod sa kanya.
Nagkainuman pa silang tatlo sa kitchen bar at mukhang marami silang napagkwentuhan.
Sa hindi kalayuan na silid, nakahiga na si Jaime ngunit hindi pa siya madalaw ng antok. Nakatingin lang siya sa kisame at napapaisip pa rin tungkol sa mga nangyari.
Hindi pa rin siya makapaniwala na makikita niyang muli ang mga dating kaklase lalong-lalo na si Yael.
Ano pa man ay narinig ni Jaime ang napapalakas na usapan at sigawan ng mga lalaki sa labas at tila nagtaka siya kung anong ginagawa ng mga ito. Binalewala na lamang niya ang mga ito at tuluyan na lamang pumikit.
What else can we do now that we're here and together?
Jaime was just thinking and was fast asleep.
