Heirra decided to buy lunch at a nearby cafe. A sandwich and a coffee would already be sufficient enough to fill her stomach. On her way, she spots someone with long silky black hair walking inside the same cafe she was going into.
That lady looks like Grace. Heirra thought and decided to approach the black-haired lady sitting near the window area.
"Hey, Miss Beautiful," Heirra said with a smile while tapping the shoulder of the lady.
I hope it's Grace or it would be embarrassing for me. Heirra thought to herself.
"You're here to Officer? We seem to bump into each other often." Grace said with a smile then placed her order.
" I'll secure seats for us," Grace said as she went off to find seats.
"I'll have an egg with extra cheese and bacon sandwich please and also a cappuccino." Heirra stated her order.
After receiving her order, she went to find Grace.

"We meet again at the same cafe. Is this perhaps your favorite cafe too, officer?" Grace asked.
"I've been addicted to this cafe ever since my college days. Also, you don't have to call me an officer all the time. Call me Heirra."
"Alright Heirra." Grace said, which Heirra finds sexy and blushed a little.
"So are you and Blake getting along?"
" We are. Actually, she's totally my type."
"How about helping me Heirra? Is she single? Does she also swing the other way?"
Upon hearing this, Heirra already knows that her crush would already be one-sided.
"I'll ask her. I think she just had a break-up recently. I'm not so sure though."
"You know Heirra, you should really practice not showing your feelings too much. Be honest, do you like me?"
This statement caused Heirra to blush so much, which Grace thought was cute.
And here I thought Officers are cool. She's the total opposite of it. How can she act so cute? Flirting with her won't do too much damage right? Grace thought.
"Here's my number Officer, let's be text buddies since you're assigned to Chris. At least, we'll be able to communicate with each other." Grace said as she wrote down her number on a piece of paper.
She's a flirt huh. Man, I think I had a crush on the wrong suspect. Heirra thought.
"Well, I'll be going first then, Grace."

After heading back to her desk, there are only some cases by team bravo and the team charlie that she needs to review on. This made her job easier. Right now, team bravo and team charlie are also on patrol while the other three officers are near where the suspects are to guard them.
After a few hours, Heirra decided to check on Chrisia. She went to Chrisia's apartment only to find it empty. She didn't panic, but she was worried. She decided to call Chrisia but there was no response.
Let's go home then. She might be at my apartment.
Heirra was right. Chrisia was still at her apartment and was still asleep.
"Wake up! It's already three in the afternoon!" Heirra shouted.
"You're so noisy you know." Chrisia said back.
Chrisia got up and to Heirra's surprise, Chrisia was already dressed up.
"What are you doing falling asleep like that, and you changed your clothes too."
"I went home to get changed. Let's just say I wanted to bug you so I went back to your apartment."
"Bug me? Really? Can't you be honest?" Heirra said as she pointed towards the horror CD case near where Chrisia was sleeping.
"Fine, I wanted to watch a horror film with you at night." Chrisia said.
Really, can't she be honest? A sleepover is nice too.
"Want to go somewhere? I'm still guarding you, you know."
" How about a walk in the park? I could use some fresh air."
They went inside the car and headed towards the park.
"Before I forget, why didn't you answer my call?"
"I forgot to turn off the mute setting. Don't worry, I changed it back a while ago while you were in the bathroom."

"The air is nice. I can't believe this is happening to us, to me."
"I've been thinking. You said that you guys were often getting into accidents right?"
"Yeah what of it?"
"Since the police are now part of the investigation and are constantly guarding you guys. I want you to observe if the accidents would be lessened or not. Don't forget to report to me, princess." Heirra said with a smile under the sunset.
"Really. Calling me a princess. Aren't you charming." Chrisia said with sarcasm.
"Oh yeah. Is Grace a flirt? I saw her around noon at Blueberry Cafe. She flirtatiously gave me her number."
"So you've been found out by Grace huh."
"How'd you know?'
"It has become a habit of hers. She likes to tease the people who have a crush on her. It'll be hard to get her to fall for you like that."
"It's just a simple crush. Nothing more."
"How about let's make a bet. you'll bet on how I'll fall head in heels for her while I'll bet on how it's just a simple crush on her. The deadline is six months."
"Wait why should we." Chrisia said.
"It'll be more fun."
"What if you cheat?"
" I won't since as you both said, I'm easy to read."
"Fine. So what's at stake?"
"To make it more fun. How about, if you win, I'll do anything you want and if I win, help me get together with Grace."
"Are we really going to do this? You're really just like a kid."
"Please. Come on Chris, you won't lose anything."
"Alright fine. Let's head back, I'm hungry."
