Bab 2: The proudful Gordon's
'I would never believe it!' Leigh eyes were filled with trust toward Tia. She was reluctant to believe that Tia would harm her but what more serious problem now was the old man inside the prison with her.
"Sir! Why are you here?" she finally spoke after the two terrorist who has dragged that old man all the way, left.
She seemed to know who this man was. Tia offered water with a cold face, pretending as if she didn't care, "His coughs are irritating to my ear, make him drink it".
She averted her gaze away after offering the bottle of water whereas, Leigh smiled looking at her. She was like, 'I knew you were not that kind of person'.
"Quickly!" Tia thundered feeling irritated by that continuous smile which was darted toward her. It was burdensome.
That sudden thundering voice made the girl flinch and she quickly nodded. She was glancing at Tia from time to time while helping the old man drink, "Are you ok, sir?" she asked kindly.
"Uhmm… argh, yes. Now, I feel better thanks to your kindness lady, but do I know you?" the old man asked.
Tia was curious, too, but she was keeping her eyes from rolling toward their direction. Her finger scratched her nose as she started to give rounds again and in midst of that, she could not hear their conversation, but Leigh looked happy.
'She must have many loved once waiting for her. So, lucky!'
She bit her lips, feeling self-pity because never have she met her family after birth, nor did she have any idea as to who they were.
Once she met Leigh, she even doubted, 'Could she be mine twin sister?'
And her doubt was still alive!
"That sister is really kind, she got demoted while saving me from some bastards who work here. Really sir, don't go on her coldness and look how close we resemble each other."
While Tia was passing by that cell, she heard those words, "How bothersome," she scratched her neck feeling shy as she muttered.
"Don't worry, my grandson would be soon reaching here," as the old man said that Tia took a back turn and stopped in front of him, "This area is so dangerous and deserted, no one is coming here. People can only be brought here," Tia refuted his words.
The old man smirked; he was about to say something when all the emergency alarm started to surround each corner of the wall.
"It must be him," he proud fully muttered.
"Officer 84, get on your position. Start preparing and bring all the prisoners to the warship. Open fire is allowed on anyone discerning the situation," when Tia took out the walky-talky, she got the command.
She didn't have the idea about the situation, but one thing was clear, things didn't look good.
For a moment she even thought of believing what the old man said since whenever she looked at him, he looked so proudful, but what can a 'Grandson' do?
She refused to believe and with some of her people started to open the cell.
There was her and the man who earlier dragged the proudful old man.
"What's going on?" she asked seriously and loudly so that her voice could reach the man far away in between those emergency syren.
The man who was opening the cells hurriedly paused for a moment and replied, "We are attacked, so drag that lazy ass of yours and hurry up before I shoot you for lagging things behind. You know killing is completely fine at this time".
He chuckled with an evil face.
Once again Tia looked at the old man, 'If what he is saying is true than this will be an opportunity hard to come by. I can get freedom, too'.
Even if it was for that moment, Tia become wishful and greedy. And she asked again, "Who is attacking us? Some other terrorist group, is it?"
The man clicked his tongue, "Again and again, do you want to die?" he pointed his gun toward her and all the prisoners who were out, sat down with screams leaving their mouth in fear.
Tia frowned. She already gave up with those wishful thoughts since it was risky.
She took the keys and started to unlock the cells one by one.
But the old man who just walked out had some other plan, "We should sneak out in time, no one will be able to figure out in this chaos". He grinned.
The old man appeared to be very aloof with an easy personality. But those words were not enough for Leigh to leave like this. She wanted Tia to go together.
"That… how about we take her to go together?" judging from the way she asked, she surely believed in what the old man said.
The man pursed his lips as he gave a moment of thought but by then Tia has started to line up the prisoners.
She took the chance and as soon as Tia came near, she grabbed her shirt and whispered, "Sis, please". She blinked cutely while urging Tia to believe her and the old man, "Can't you leave together with us?" she shook her head while asking.
"Why are you so sure that this old man is correct?" the question was valid but the old one got angry.
"Hey young one, who are you calling old? This man still has a lot of vigour and who will dare to come here other than us 'Gordon's' he laughed out loud.
Leigh hushed him.
It was Tia to choose which path she would walk down.
