TAR.“Everybody would be furious. I love it." Diane says. She was staring straight at herself in the mirror, she brought the comb to her hair one more time. I watched her comb her hair all over again, maybe she knew I liked watching her comb her hair. She turned to me.“Thank you for taking me with you." She said humbly and calmly.She looked really collected and calm.“You see welcome." I told her. I stood up from the chair.“Are you leaving?." She asked me.“My apartment is next door, if you need me, you can call me." I tell her. She tied her hair in a ponytail.“Drive me crazy..." I mutter unconsciously.“What?." She asked me.“Nothing." I say straightening up. There was a knock on the door.We exchanged glances.“Trust me, you are safe here." I tell her.“But If the people find out they might try to kill me, they really hate my father." Diane says." Trust me, you are thinking the opposite. The Tarians are not like that, if your father comes here in good f
The alarm went off but I was already awake. I was standing in front of the sink washing apples. I still heard the shrill of the alarm as I sat down at the dining table with a kinfe in my hand and four apples in the blue bowl. As I took a bite of the apple, a knock sounded on my door. I took another bite because the fruit was so good I almost had a tastegasm. The knock came again, this time more louder and sharper. I opened the door, it was Diane.Her hair was the first thing I noticed, I wondered if I had known that she had great hair. “Good morning." She said.Her voice brought me out of my thoughts.“Good morning Diane." I said pushing the door wider for her to walk through. I noticed the basket in her hand as soon as she walked into my apartment.“It's so weird." She said.“What is so weird?." I asked her.“We are neighbors, we live next door from each other." She said with a grin. I smiled.“I baked these." She said raising the basket. I too
I held the door open for her. She walked in quickly. I stood at the door, waiting for Diane and Estelle. I heard their voice and they appeared in the hallway.“Look who is waiting." Estelle said walking over to me.“I guess that door is Diane's." She asked me pointing to Diane's door.“Yes, that's Diane's apartment." I tell her.“You know, you boys take care of us like we are helpless little toddlers." Estelle said.“You know it's not like that Estelle, you and Kana are strong women, we just want to keep you both safe." I tell her sweeping my fingers through her hair.“Your hair is growing." I tell her.“It's getting lengthy." She said taking a fistful and pulling it. I turn to Diane.“Take care." I tell her, she nods.“Estelle, take care of Diane." I whisper to Estelle.“I heard that." Diane tells me. I laugh.“Roger that commander." Estelle said and they both walk through the door. I walk back into my apartment.I see Kana laying on my dining table.“I'm glad
Everything felt really calm for a few days, I spent most days with Diane. We were both in a love spell, it was hard to see anybody but her. I was truly happy and I made memories that would be etched in the walls of my brain like a tattoo, it would be embedded so deep that even if I lost my memories, I would still have those memories. But immediately the next war was whispered to me, everything went away, the happiness and instead I was filled with insecurities. What if I die this time.It was not so light, the fear. The fear of dying was heavy that It took guts not to run back to earth when everybody was asleep. Every minute I thought of the war.“Let's make it the last war!." Teddy said to me.“The last war." I murmured When I went home that day after I heard the statement, I had a nightmare. I was in the battle field, as usual, my team mates were around me.“Let's make this our last war." Teddy said to me.“Our last war!." Everybody chorused, everybody... T
I go through everything in my head, my subconscious mind seems to really enjoy the scene. I was in a dream like state. At first I left my house to go to Elio's now I knew that Ju was in Elio's house and she heard all of our conversations, I wondered what I would have said that would change everything. I follow her to the industry and I see the whole thing take place, I record her conversation with Cypher's Kingman and when she leaves, I drive straight to Elio's house, I call Teddy and Core, we all watch the recording and instead of me going alone, The security would take Nu to jail, but... Elio got the whole thing wrong. Nu's words ring in my ear, he tried to rape me?. I shut my eyes and I almost kicked myself for going to her apartment in the first place, things could have gone differently. Elio was blinded by her, even if he heard the real truth, doubt would still flood through him. How could Elio even believe that, but I did not have to worry, I would jus
Elio's POV.i stand by and watch as they take Hans into the Van. I send my order to take him to the transit station and the van starts to move, I watch it till it disappears. I walk into the building, I go to the head of security office. The man was sitting in the big seat behind the desk.“I am sorry for what happened to miss Nu, I hope she gets healed and she forgets what that vile man tried to do to her." The man says. I take in a deep breath.“I hope that too." I tell him. I sit in the other seat facing the man and I drop my phone in the desk. I was waiting for the call, my phone was right in front of me and I was staring straight at it. “Hello." I picked up the phone and said into it. “He is gone." " Are you sure?." I asked into the phone." I'm very sure sir, he is gone." I ended the call, very satisfied.I left the building, I entered into my car and told my driver to take me to the hospital where Nu is. I enter into the hospital, the f
“impossible." Estelle says.“We don't believe you " Kana tells me.“I saw it with my own eyes." I tried to say.“Leave " Teddy tells me.“What?." I ask him.“Did I stutter?." He retorts.“No matter what you think or believe, no one is allowed to bring him back. If he steps foot in Tar, he is dead." I tell them and then I leave. I leave the building and I head back to the hospital.***Core's POV “I am speechless." I say out loud.“Hans didn't do it." Diane says.“We know." I say standing up.“Where are you going?." They ask me in unison.“I do not know. I will be back though, I'll be back quickly." I say to them and I leave the apartment. The gush of fresh air that hit me was like my saviour for the second, I beath it in like a pleasure pill. It took time before I let it out.What happened yesterday? There is an entire puzzle in front of me and I better start fixing it as quick as possible. Without thinking much, I start walking without a destination in mind, w
I watched the head of security take Nu to jail. I was standing right in front of Teddy when Leno walked into the hospital room.“Hey what is going on?." Leno asked both of us “We showed him evidence that Hans got before he went to Nu's apartment, he was not trying to rape her, he was going to bring her in.. “" “And now he is gone, I told Elio that he was running mad with the way he was handling things." Leno said.“Wait you knew that he was sending him to earth?." Teddy asked him.He raised his hands in surrender mode. “I did not know, he told me afterwards." Leno said. Teddy's shoulders slouched.“This guy... Hans, I can see he is special to all of you, I hope you guys get him back." Leno said. The room fell silent.There was nothing left for us to do, we just had to wait for Elio to do something. And he had to do something or else we would do a lot of things. We both went to Hans' apartment. Night came quickly, everybody fell asleep on the couch, around mi
