PROLOGUE ............................. "MILK, where are you going? It's getting late," I heard Ashia say. "Just a moment, I'm going to take pictures of wild animals," I replied before completely moving away. Well, I love mystery. I just want to know how lions take care of their babies. I've been searching for minutes, but I haven't found anything, so I decided to go back. On my way back, I accidentally bumped into an old man, and he was bleeding profusely. "Are you okay? Who did this to you?" Instead of answering, he handed me a small USB. "Miss, hide that. The files inside are important. Please find Marvin Alderama and give it to him-" "-Wait, what happened?" "They're already here; you need to escape now!" Without thinking, I started running. I stopped when I heard a series of gunshots. "What's that?" I turned to Ashia. I held her hand. "Let's go now, Ashia, there are bad people here." I pulled her away, and as soon as we got into the car, someone started shooting at us, so I ducked. "DRIVE NOW, MILK!!!" Ashia shouted. I immediately drove away quickly. "Who are they? Why are they chasing you?" Ashia asked. "I saw an old man earlier, he was bleeding a lot, and he gave me a USB, said there were important files on it. He told me to find Marvin Alderama." "What the hell, Milk? You put yourself in danger. Looks like you bumped into someone big." "I'm just panicked, okay." The three-hour journey was shortened to two hours. When we arrived at Kuya Milo's house, we quickly went inside. "Kuya Milo!!" I called out in frustration. I found them eating in the dining area, and Kuya Khalil was also there. "What happened to you, Milk? Why is your shoulder bleeding?" Kuya asked, approaching me. "Is that a gunshot wound?" I hadn't noticed that I was bleeding. "Your sister got into a big mess, Kuya Milo," Ashia said. "Someone wants to kill her." "What happened?" Ate Saphira asked. I told them what I told Ashia, and Kuya reacted immediately. "Wtf! Milk, just tell me if you want to die, I'm going to shoot you," he angrily said. "I'm sorry, okay? I just panicked." "Where's the USB?" I raised the USB I was holding. "Give me that USB now!" "No way, Kuya Milo. I'm the one who will find Marvin," I said, hiding the USB again. "If you want, you can also look for bad guys with hidden agendas-" "-MILK GAUDINO! I'M NOT JOKING HERE!" He shouted in anger. "Okay, I'm sorry," I said. "I'll go back to my condo now. I need to treat my wound." "Khalil, escort her to ensure her safety-" "-Why me again? Am I always the one? I'm busy eating here," brother Khalil interrupted brother Milo, earning him a glare. "Saphira, your husband is glaring at me, break up with him." "Khalil Cavort!" "Fine." Annoyed, he stood up with a chicken leg in his mouth. "By the way, from now on, you'll be the one watching over Milk until she finds this Marvin. And don't you dare hang out with my sister." "Brother!!" I protested. "Enough, Milo," sister scolded him. "Go ahead, escort her." "I'm quiet here, and you're dragging me into this mess," Kuya Khalil complained before leaving. We quickly followed him. Brother halil, tell me how old you are," Ashia asked. "I'm thirty-two but still hot and fresh," he replied before getting into the car. Ashia and I exchanged looks before getting into the backseat together. "You're thirty-two, but you look like twenty-five," Ashia said. She's right; even with half his face covered, his handsomeness is still evident. "You're thirty-two, but you're still acting like a five-year-old. What a child," I said. "Nye nye nye..." I wonder what will happen to me now. I don't really want to be with brother Khalil; he might cause more trouble for me.
