Find Me in 1000 Years

Introductions

Irish had ridden a motorcycle and was wearing a helmet. He gave one more helmet to the young man, but Ken just stared at the woman with his eyes still grieving.

"Hishe ...." In a hurry, the Irish then go down and attach the helmet to Ken. He got back on the bike and waited.

"Let's go up."

Ken rode on the bike while still holding the food wrapper. After that, the motor starts to run.

"Ken, hold it, you'll fall!" the woman shouted warning.

Slowly but surely, with one hand the young man wrapped his hand around the Irish waist. Then lay his head softly on the woman's back. Seeing Ken's condition, the woman sped up the speed of her motorcycle.

Then they came to a park. Ken then went down, followed by the woman. Irish took the young man into the garden and sat down on a long garden chair.

That night, though it was dark, the clear sky was studded with stars. Irish enjoyed a short night with the young man. He stretched out his arms behind the back of the chair and turned to the young man who was still silent with a melancholy look on his face.

"Eh, aren't you hungry?"

The young man only turned his head for a while, then looked back towards the front with a slight bow.

The woman slightly shifted towards the young man, but Ken shook his head.

"I also have a sister. He's very funny. We stayed only two because our parents left us and did not return. Maybe because they are too poor.

They fought a lot and then my mother left us. Then dad. Only my brother became my spirit giver to make a living. I've been working as a good person but that's not enough.

When my sister was sick, no hospital would help us until God took her. Since then, I don't want to be a good person anymore. The good people where he was bullied." The woman looked at Ken. It turned out that the young man had already turned his head towards him. Both his eyes were already glazed. "Ken ...."

The young man's tears began to fall. The woman immediately pulled the young man's body and hugged his shoulder. Ken cried by leaning on the woman's shoulder. Long enough the Irish hugged him until the young man's cries stopped.

After that the young man broke free from the woman's embrace. He moved away from her in shame. Ken cleaned up the remains of his tears. "I-I just miss," she said.

Irish gazed forward folding legs and hugged her while looking back at the stars. "Mk."

He soon looked. "You're not hungry, Ken?"

"Eh, yes. I'm hungry." Ken pulled out his burger and started biting the bread. He ate it voraciously while picking up the pieces of fries that were still in the package.

Irish also took Ken's fries.

"That's my fries!" yelled Ken while biting the fries in hand.

Irish is yelled at like that. "Your fault! Because of you I left my dinner on the table."

Ken felt guilty. "sorry. Yeah, we're eating both." He shoved a pack of fries on the Irish.

The woman smiled happily. "Thank you."

"You want my burger? I can split two." The young man was getting ready to split his burgers in half.

"Eh, no need. Just these. After all, when I get back, I have to finish my food as well."

Both of them looked straight ahead at the vast dark and beautiful sky sprinkled with stars. The air was cool so they could enjoy dinner in the open with a relaxed.

The car stopped in front of a clothing store.

"You don't have a change of clothes?" ask the woman.

Ken checked himself out who hasn't changed clothes since yesterday. "But I don't have any money un—"

"I'll buy it but you promise not to run and have to complete this mission."

Ken's speechless. If only he could choose ....

The woman came down and took the young man into the shop. Ken chose clothes while the woman was also shopping for other items.

Soon they went back on the bike to return to the building where they were staying. As he entered, everyone who was resting in the middle room, turned their heads towards him. Irish is indifferent and pulls Ken up the stairs.

The woman looked.

"Come here for a while so we can get to know each other" said Jack from the living room.

Forced the woman to turn to the living room while pulling the young man's wrist. Vicky looked at the two with a hard-to-understand look.

They sat around the dining table.

"I'm Jack Firming the leader of this West Eagle (West Eagle) organization. Members can change as per the mission's needs and that must be with my permission."

He pointed to Hugo. "It's Hugo Cortez, the crippling part of the opponent."

Then Vicky. "This is Vicky Delano, the knife-thrower."

Then, another bule man. "This is Ben Smith, sniper."

He glanced at Irish. "Then this is Irish Collington undercover."

The man in black turned to look at another young man who was still new. It seems to be of Indian descent. "And we have another new member. Devan Kumar, computer and technology."

He looked towards Ken. "One more very young man, Ken what's your name?" ask Jack to make sure.

Everyone looked at Ken.

"Ken Tachibana."

"OKs. Ken Tachibana." The black man introduced the young man. "He'll make sure we get the jewel or not."

"What?" The young man gawked. He looked towards Ireland. "But I've never done anything before."

"Just calm down, we're a team and we'll help each other to get the gem" she said, trying to calm Ken down.

"But why am I making sure?"

"Because you are the one who will take the jewel, Ken," the woman replied with a smile.

"What?" Ken looked at everyone who was there. "Why me?" He turned back to the woman.

"Just calm down, Ken. You just follow what I taught you in practice back then and everything's gonna work out."

Ken stared at the woman.

"Everyone does their duty, so do you, Ken."

"Yes, right, as the Irish say. There is nothing better or worse here because you are doing your duty, unless you do it as ordered, it will be bad for others, especially you, Ken," said Jack straightforwardly.

Ken's panicking. He whispered back. "How about ...."

"There's no if, Ken. You can do it." Back Irish tried to calm the young man down. Under the table, the woman clasped Ken's hand tightly.

The young man glanced down. Vicky catches his second move, which makes him even more jealous.

"Ok, the briefings today, and tomorrow will be continued with the strategy meeting that we will do next. Good night." Then the black man resigned.

Irish brought Ken back up the stairs.

"Miss ...."

Irish turned to look with a smile while holding back a laugh. "Why did you call me, 'Miss'? Are you my servant? Besides, I'm a lot older than you."

"Eh, that's ...."
