Read uS 2Men :: "I'm sorry..."

BZZT!

Electricity cracks.

After the pole fell onto the car, Sia was nearly squished; Everyone else was at the risk of death.

Cough! Cough! Angelica coughs and moves her hand in the air to clear the fog.

"Hey, are you two OK in the back? Hadtchi!" she asks while sneezing.

"Y-yeah we're good. You ok?" says Alexis.

"Yup, Sia is- SIA!!!" Just when she's about to answer, she looks at the direction of Sia as dust clears and yells out her name.

Clutch

Zzmp

She quickly unbuckles her and Sia's seatbelt.

It was the seatbelt keeping Sia sitting steady. She falls when her seatbelt is unbuckled.

"Ay! You good?? You got blood all over your head!" says Angelica worriedly.

"Shut up please. I'm fine, just a little blood came out. Uncle Akio will be able to treat it," she says while getting away from Angelica's arms and sitting slanted on her seat.

"They're still outside. You cannot fight in this condition. You'll bleed more," Angelica says.

"God, just stop. I've fought in worse conditions with more idiots against me," says Sia.

Bonk!

"Don't try to be a freaking 'hero'! You got a broken nose, cuts, bruises, and you're bleeding through your HEAD!!" she states.

Sia shakes her head, squishes her eyes, and puts her hand over Angelica's mouth.

"Would you mind SHUTTING UP?!" she yells.

The dead quietness in the car is too awkward for anyone to break.

"Also, you talk about yourself first! You've got bruises yourself. YOU'RE LEGIT BEING PIERCED THROUGH YOUR LEG!" she shouts.

"It's fine. I can still fight. But what about you? Your bow and arrow are broken," she states.

"Oh! Don't try to be a 'hero'," Sia mocks in a nasally, high pitch tone, rolling her eyes and waving her hands in the air while bending down.

Angelica sighs, shaking her head.

"Fine. Fine. What's with your bow and arrow though? I have my guns and you know the emergency stick," she asks.

"Why do you think I keep knives with me, huh?" says Sia.

"Oh, you have them? I thought you didn't bring them with you," she states.

"Yeah, I got them," Sia replies.

"Oh, by the way, is your shoulder OK? Should we be worried?" Sia asks while counting her knives.

"Yeah, it's fine. Just a rope burn. It'll heal," she replies while tying the gun rope around her waist.

"Alright, but make sure not to let them touch there. Alright? You know what can happen," says Sia while worriedly patting Angelica's head.

"Y-yeah. Alright," says Angelica hesitantly, her voice shaking. Everyone can easily tell she's flushed.

Clack

The door opens from Angelica's side.

Sia throws three knives at the chasers in the beginning while Angelica shoots down six of the chasers.

Sia looks up at Angelica, gets up, and places her elbow on the car roof, putting her head on top. Her other hand lands on herwaist while her legs cross at an angle

"I know you're good at shooting but don't take my targets!" she says.

"You're legit fighting over how many people you want to kill?" says Angelica facing towards Sia with arms crossed.

"Yes. Yes, Ii am," she replies

Argh!

"In between a fight?" Angelica says.

Bang!

"Yep" Sia replies.

Arggh!

The argue as they shoot and hit the chasers.

Clink

A ball lands on the road., Iit's not making the same sounds a typical ball would.

Sia picks it up and moves it around seeing what it actually is., She finds a sticker saying "GRENADE" in bold words.

Sia looks at it, confused.

"What…?" she mumbles, but Angelica hears her.

"What's wrong with the ball?" she asks.

"Nothing. I don't know., Tthere's ‘grenade’ written in bold letters on a sticker stuck on this. But it's a ball...OH GOD!" she yelps loudly when she realizes and let's go of the ball., Iit lands on Angelica's bag.

"What's this?" Angelica asks as she holds it.

"Grenade," Sia whispers with a weird smile and widened eyes.

Angelica widens her eyes., The “ball” slips out of her hand.

Sia catches the “ball” with her quick reflexes.

They both let out a sigh of relief.

"Should we throw it back?" Angelica looks at the grenade.

"He forgot to pull the pin. What an idiot," Sia laughs.

"Yeah, yeah. Just pull it and throw it back at him. But, check where he is so we don't miss."

"I never miss, honey." Sia winks as she looks for the guy using binoculars.

"You have binoculars?" Angelica freezes and looks at Sia with a strange look on her face.

"It's Cody's toy. I gifted it to him when he was about 4, I think."

"You stole a kid's toy?" Angelica giggles.

"It's not a toy darling. They are real. I didn't know what else to give to him though, and you know I'm not good with blah blah blah." Sia places her elbow on the car and limply holds the binoculars, her feet crossed and eyes looking elsewhere..

Angelica starts breathing heavily. Her chest feels tight but her heart starts skipping beats and pounding faster.

Sia takes a peek.

"Angie?" she calls out her name.

"Angie? Angie!!...ANGELICA RODRIGUEZ!" she shouts at last.

Angelica flinches. Crap, what the hell Angelica?!

"Yeah? Yeah...you were saying?" her voice shakes.

Sia keeps her face straight as she looks at Angelica, staring here and there confusingly.

"Speak up. What is it?" says Angelica.

"Nothing," Sia extends her tone with a smirk.

She leans over to Angelica, holds her chin, and kisses her forehead.

"You blushy-baby," says Sia with a straight face and a smile.

"I…get off me. What are you doing? We're working!" Angelica’s voice trembles in embarrassment.
