“Hm?”  Mia hums curiously.

“Nothing, my head hurts a little,” Angelica lies while laughing it off and slowly placing her hand on the side of the head..

Mia narrows her eyes and looks at Angelica curiously.

“Uh, guys, shouldn’t we call Charlie?” Sia asks, cutting off Alexis.

“Ay, call Charlie,” Sia says, placing her chin on Angelica’s shoulder and hand around Angelica’s neck.

“My phone broke,'' says Angelica, quickly taking out her phone to call.

“I didn’t bring mine. Do you guys have phones?” Sia asks while trying to turn on Angelica’s phone, and hugging her neck, while breathing heavily.

“Yes,” Mia replies in a cold tone.

Sia and Mia glare at each other , Sia smirks but stops when Alexis asks, “What’s that ball in your hand, Sia?”

“It’s not a ball. It’s a grenade,” says Sia, looking at Alexis.

“Oh, I see...wait what?!” Alexis shouts suddenly.

 “You brought a goddamn grenade in this car?!” Mia shouts as she backs away, her finger pointed towards the grenade.

“Yeah, so?” Sia hangs her arm around Angelica’s shoulder. Her head tilts towards Angelica’s neck, making Angelica’s skin tingle from her warm breaths..

“Gah!! Get off my neck for god’s sake!” Angelica yelps as she feels chills in her bones and butterflies in her stomach due to the warm breaths serenely replacing the cold environment.

“Huh? What happened?” Sia asks as she looks at Angelica covering her neck.

Sia suddenly notices. She smirks, leaning off her shoulder and out of the car. She throws the grenade back and forth hand-to-hand.

Vrrrm!

Sia holds her guard up when she suddenly hears engine noises. 

“Ay, I think some more bikers are coming this way. Should we hide or fight head on?” 

“Wait, but I don't hear anything?” says Mia.

“I’m a talented human, not everyone has the skills. I do,” says Sia as she places her fingertips on her chest and flips her hair.

Angelica shakes her head. “Sia has extraordinary hearing.”

“Heh." Sia puts her hands on the waist and nods with a grin.

"Unlike you, Sia, I have Angel," Mia says with a smirk. Sia slumps with an ugly and annoyed frown. "I have Angel," Sia mimics.

"You-!" Before Mia could say anything, Angelica pulled her hand and squinted her eyes at Mia.

Mia lets out a long sigh, she takes Angelica's hand, and kisses it. She smirks at Sia.

Sia moves away from the seat, gets out of the car, and catches the sight of the car coming close. "Go and do your job, lil ball," she says as she kisses the grenade, pulls the pin, and throws it powerfully so it crosses enough distance.

Sia takes out three knives and throws them in the direction of the car.

"Agh!" a loud, male voice screams.

Boom!

"Bullseye!" she cheers in her mind.

Angelica comes out of the car. "So? Where are they" 

Sia clicks her tongue and throws three more knives. The second car screeches as the tires pops.

"The first car blasted. The second one screeched. Three people in the second car plus everyone in the first car died."

"Oh, nice.What about the one who threw the grenade at us?"

Sia points her thumb at the man who is currently lying dead with 10 knives in him. "Oh. Well, how many are left?" 

"Only 10 more." 

"Wow, you killed them without me?" 

"Why are you always so jealous of Mia? You're always so mean to her," says Angelica, gently placing her elbow on the car roof.

Sia gulps, looking at Angelica. She leans towards her  and says, "She has what I longed to have since I was only 13." 

Angelica and Sia make eye contact. Angelica can clearly see what Sia wants and for how long. Angelica blushes, but at the same time, she feels guilt and sorrow.

***

"Why do you get so jealous every time Sia tries a move on Angelica, huh?" says Alexis, glaring at Mia.

"Listen, I still haven't told Angel. I have to keep up the act," says Mia.

"Oh! So that kiss was an act? Either you're very good at acting, or you just don't want to tell her," Alexis speaks loudly.

"Would you keep your voice down?!" Mia whispers loudly.

Alexis scoffs as she leans backwards, arms crossed and legs on top of each other.

"What're you even trying to imply?" says Mia looking at Alexis.

"That you're jealous of Sia. You still like Angelica. You don't want to let go of her." 

"Are you crazy? Of course, I want to break up with her!" 

"Then why don't you do it today? Right here, right now." Alexis quickly comes forward.

Mia groans. "I can't, not here. Sia is going to shove that knife of hers down my throat." 

"Just say you don't want to hurt Angelica because you still love her." 

"I don't!" 

"Then prove it!!" she shouts.

"Prove what, girls?" Sia suddenly sneaks up on them, causing them to flinch.

"It's nothing, just…just a handshake we made up ourselves," says Mia hesitantly.

"Mia forgot it. She won't prove to me that I'm still her best friend." Alexis’ words, in general, sound normal. But to Sia, they seem like there's way more to it.

Sia narrows her eyes with suspicion. "Alright," she draws out her tone.

"D-did you need something?" Alexis hesitates and stammers..

"I want your phone to call Charles." 

"Charles?...Oh! Charlie, sure." Alexis reaches for her phone in her pocket.

"Thanks." Sia takes the phone, dials in Charlie's number, and calls Charlie.

"Yes, who is this?" asks Charlie on the other line.

"Hey, Charles. It's me."

"Ah, you. Have you guys found the pen drive?" 

"We did, we also found some company." 

"And you guys are where?" 

"The downside of the city, isolated blocks." 

"Ok, I'll send he-" 

"You be the help, bye!"

"Hey wait!" 

Beep

"Ugh, Sia," Charlie groans, putting his phone on the table.

"What is it?" asks Erik.

"It's Sia. They got company in the downside city blocks," says Charlie texting someone.

"Who're you texting?" asks Erik.

"Just Cody and Matt." 

"Why Cody?" 

"Aunt Alya told me to take him to work with me." 

"Oh, take care then." Erik buttons up his shirt.

"Sure will." 

Charlie picks up his keys and walks out of the door.
