Clearing my throat. “Honestly, I already heard your proposition. And I completely agree. I know that my last action is calling for my apology. Gentlemen.

She gives the impression that she will never leave as long she did not get what she wants.“Okey, what do you want from me?” Honestly, I felt irritated by her questions. Or maybe somehow felt threatened. I do not know how my patience last. Sharing my secret to her. That’s why I am afraid if she stays longer. Plans will be destroyed.“There is something bothering me. I needed to hear it from you. What you took risks in giving the Luna representative a chance to have a conversation with you?”Yes. I know that I needed to be honest with my answer. She can easily spot any lies that I possibly make.“I was hoping that they are still a chance for us to reach an

We had no chose but to accept it.” There is a pain in every word, he uttered.“We still have a chance to get our revenge for the main culprit. He still there, waiting for us to get our justice.”“You are right. My job is not yet finished. We joined the Visionaries not only to avenge our loved ones.

He did not act on his own. This interview could be a trap. Or to test me. A cunning device of the council.“I do not believe in the word power. We have different positions, but each position had an equal importance to attain our common goal.”“What your plan for the Visionaries? What things we can expect from you?”“Expectation means pressure.” Smiling at him. He felt embarrassed from his question. To make him comfortable. I laugh at him. “You are so serious.

Why you give me the full authority in managing the Health and Nutrition Department?”“Well, it is because I fully trust in your ability.”“Full authority. Are you aware what it means?”“Yes, I know. Giving you the full authority, it is means you does not need my approval. You should feel happy about it. And does not need the council approval to execute your plan.”“That is the problem.
