Unexpected Love

Chapter 3

I'm out of interrogation room. I stop by the coffee machine.

'Let's choose the poison for today. How do I like my coffee?'

I choose the Espresso. Strong and bitter, just like me. Enjoy it while it lasts, self!

Akala niya makakapagpahinga siya ng 5 minutes, pero biglang tumunog ang phone niya.

'Seriously?!'

I answered the call.

"Hello?"

"Hiiii, girlllll!"

"Hey, Misty what's up?"

"What's up with you, Miss Protect-and-Serve?"

"Uhh, the usual, someone got killed, I need to figure it out..."

"Makin' my life safer, you mean! My hero! Magla-lunch ba tayo or what?"

'What do I say to Misty?'

"Hmm, listen I'm not exactly sure."

"What?!"

"May meeting ako with the forensics and it might take a while."

"Pero may deal tayo, Nathalie! I know your job is important but, please, try."

"Listen, I'll try to be quick and be there on time. Sounds right?"

"Oh, you better be quick! I got sooooo much to tell you!"

"As you always do, Misty."

"At the restaurant in two hours?"

"Yup! See you!"

"Bye, girlll!"

I almost forgot about this...

I better go to the lab, so Misty doesn't wait for me.
