Chapter 52: Mission L
Chapter 52: Mission L
Chance was the only single guy in group and therefore his friends wanted to set him up with Samantha and therefore they told her these facts, Chance didn't mind it anyway as far as Samantha does not know that he is Grim Reaper till then any information she has on Chance is of no use for her.
Then they all went to have lunch and had a great time together as Samantha, really gelled well with them.
All the five people loved Sam. Chance still couldn't believe that the Danger-Ace who acts so tough and cold is this amazing person in real, he surprisingly had a very good time with her. He wanted to spend more time with her so he requested Samantha to go on a walk with him which she agreed and the other two couples went to their rooms.
"I really had a great time with you" He honestly informed her.
"Me too, your friends were awesome"
"I wasn't?" Chance wanted to tease her.
Samantha gently smiled at him, "You were good too"
"My friends were awesome but I am just good, noted" He teased her.
She stopped in her tracks and turned towards him, "Yeah, it would take some time for you to be awesome"
Chance found a good opportunity with what she said, "Will I get some time, then?"
"You might"
"When?"
"How about dinner?" Samantha initiated an invitation this time to show she is equally interested in him.
Chance was super shocked, he was planning to invite her and was not sure if she would agree or not but she herself asked him, he thought why suddenly she is showing interest in him but nevertheless he looked genuinely happy, "I would be honoured"
"Honoured" She raised her eyebrows, "Isn't that too much?"
'No, having dinner with Danger-Ace is super awesome' He thought to himself but he said, "No, it is not" He suddenly took a step towards her and looked straight into her eyes, they looked so intense that Samantha for a second lost herself in them but she soon composed herself.
"Well then it is my pleasure" Samantha felt scared for a second and Chance smiled to himself.
"I'll be waiting for you"
"I'll reach on time"
They decided to meet near the pool at 8 pm and Samantha left to go to her room.
Chance then saw David and Jack and was surprised as earlier they went back to their rooms and didn't expect to see them here, so he approached them and he could see Jack was in a very bad mood.
"What happened?" Chance asked them although he had an idea what must have happened.
"Abigail, made an excuse and left their room, so" David tried to explain but Jack interrupted him, "I am sure she is still investigating that death case, can't she just not care about all of this for once and spend some time with me" Jack was in frustration.
"Jack, calm down, we all know how passionate she is about work" Chance tried to calm him but Jack got even more annoyed, "Seriously Chance? You and David are always up to something and I know there is some secretive thing always going on with you guys, which you don't tell me but I am fine with it as I anyway have no other option than to keep quiet. My friends hide something from me, my girlfriend always prefers doing duty over spending time with me and you want me to calm down and understand everyone? Why am I not the one you guys try to understand but it is always me who needs to be adjusting according to you all?" Jack snapped at him.
Chance and David kept quiet as they could understand how frustrating it must be for Jack as they keep hiding a lot of things from him.
They were hiding all of this for his own sake but it was understandable as Jack has no idea about anything.
"I am sorry Jack, if you want to know then" Chance offered because he knew Jack would never agree to it.
"No Chance, that is not what I meant, it is just that at times it gets too much." Jack explained in frustration.
"I understand, if it ever gets out of line, and you want to know the truth then I will tell you everything." Chance promised.
Jack smiled and he calmed down after hearing Chance's words, "Thanks buddy."
"Where is Abigail?" David was still wondering and Chance glared at him in anger, he just consoled Jack and brought him back to normal and David again started discussing the same topic.
"No idea, I think she went to investigate the room where that guy died on her own" Jack again got pissed, "I'll just head to that floor and will catch her read-handed" Jack was about to walk when Chance stopped him.
"Dude, just let her be, she will do some checking and she anyway will not conclude anything new, if you keep interrupting her then she will keep making excuses until and unless she is satisfied, give her a few minutes, once she checks the room she will be back" Chance tried to put some sense into Jack, who agreed with his explanation.
"Hmm, maybe you are right"
"Yeah, just go to your room and relax. When she comes back pretend like you had no idea, she lied to you and went to the room that guy died in. Then she will feel very guilty for lying to you and then she will try to be nicer with you." Chance advised Jack and Jack was very happy as he really liked this idea of Chance, so he thanked him and went back to his room before Abigail reaches there.
Chance smiled and turned to face David who folded his arms across his chest and was glaring at Chance in anger.
"What?" Chance questioned him.
"You are so despicable to come up with such ways. If you ever fall for a woman, will you do the same? Deceive her and then make her feel guilty for her actions and then she will shower you with more love, is this what you always do and are planning to do?" David angrily questioned him.
"I never did this but maybe I am going to do something like this" Chance smiled at him.
"Dude, what is wrong with you and why the hell are you pretending like a nice person in front of Danger-Ace?"
"Shhh" Chance checked his surroundings, "Dude, her name is Samantha, please address her like that"
"What is wrong with you Chance? Have you forgotten why we were trying to contact her in the first place? We are not in Hawaii to kill Mario, he was not the main target, he was just an excuse, we are here to request Danger-Ace for a collaboration. Mission L is very important for us Chance and we need her help, don't lose focus."
Chance didn't interrupt David and heard every word of his, "David, mission L is the most important thing for me right now. Believe me I am not losing my focus; I know what I am doing. I am not going to execute mission L in a haste, it is fine if it takes time but it has to be perfect. Also, when I went to meet her in the bar, I really intended to ask her about the mission but then I realized she had no idea that I too was hired to kill Mario, which means she will be very pissed if she knows I am Grim Reaper who killed her target again. She will right away reject my request as right now she is not in her calm mind. Also, since she doesn't know about Grim Reaper being here then why should I compromise my identity and reveal myself. Let me be Chance and let me do what I intend to and then as Grim Reaper I'll again approach her."
"But why do you want to keep meeting her as Chance?" David questioned him.
"Because I know her as Danger-Ace, I don't know Samantha. If I know the real and the fake side of her, don't you think it would be beneficial for us in the future."
"I don't think this is it?" David honestly shared his opinion.
Chance heaved a long sigh, 'This bastard can see through me' he thought and he decided to be honest, "Fine, I like her"
"See, this is the problem Chance, you get easily distracted" David shouted at him.
"Hey, I am not going to lose any focus only because I like her. Mission L is very important for me and I can never let anything come in the way between my target, not even myself, not even my feelings. But for now, I am just spending time with her, what if I find a clue which might process things faster? We anyway can't make haste decisions so let things happen naturally" Chance explained to David who calmed down once he heard Chance's explanation.
