38. Who Am I Actually?



Eight o'clock at night past a quarter. Ammo has arrived at her castle. He took out three plastic boxes from inside his other submarine. Now, two mini-submarines side by side on the castle's private dock.


Ammo put the box together in a trolley and pulled it. It took quite a bit of effort to get the load to the elevator on the ground floor. But Ammo did not complain one bit. It's stocked groceries for some time here.


Ana, who was preparing dinner in the kitchen, was surprised to see Ammo appear behind her.


"You're back?" ask Ana.


"You're disappointed I'm back?" Ammo asked back with her eyebrows raised.


Seeing the bad news, Maya diverts the conversation.


"What did you bring?"


Maya points to the trolley that Ammo still holds.


"food stuff. I thought you might get tired of just eating fish" replied Ammo.


He hands the trolley to Maya, then turns around and exits the kitchen. Ana was glued for a moment.


"Is there a wrong word?" thought surprised.


Meanwhile Maya cheers in excitement as she opens the boxes Ammo carries. Both are busy cooking in the kitchen. They had to prepare dinner for the three.


Ammo sat leaning against the head of the bed wearing only a bathrobe. He had just freshened up, and wanted to rest for a while.


I don't know how long Ammo's been asleep. He woke up when he heard a knock on the door. Ammo got down and stepped over there.


"Yes" he said as he opened the door.


Ana is hypnotized for a moment, seeing Ammo's chest open under an already loose bathrobe. However, he immediately turned his eyes to the window-shut curtains at the end of the hallway.


"What's wrong?" ask Ammo.


No one noticed a smile on his handsome face.


"Evening is ready. You want us to wait for you or what? If you're busy, we can—"


"I'll be there!" Ammo cut out Ana's words. Then shut the door.


"okay."


Ana answered towards the closed door in a snobbish tone. Then he returned to the dining room where Maya was still busy arranging the table.


Maya sees Ana enter with a sour face.


"Didn't he want to eat with us?" guess Maya.


"No. He will come soon," said Ana who then sat down while throwing her body.


"Then what are you sorry about?" ask Maya wonder.


"He ... the arrogant man. Closing the door right in front of my face!" answered Ana fiercely.


Maya is a little confused by Ana's reaction.


"Not be—"


Ana paused her words. Think for a while to find the right word to explain to Maya.


"Ah, never mind .. forget it!" said flat.


Ana manages to control her emotions. Why is he angry with Ammo? Why would he explain that to Maya? Showing emotion will only be bad. People can easily read themselves. He has to get back to himself. Being a cold and emotionless Angel.


But, why would that man be able to stir up his emotions? In the photo on Ammo's desk there are five people taking pictures with familiar and happy. Ana can see Ammo, Adriana and George. But he didn't know one other teenage boy and girl. Who're they?


For years Ana lived in that home. He is close to Adriana and George. But never knew that the two friends were also close to Ammo and another man and girl.


Adriana never told me anything about her friends. Who're they?


And if James's confession in Ammo's office is true that Ana's memory was erased by the bureau, then who is she really? Are the dreams about her mother's death also false? The murder was also a fake? Then which is right? Who his real parents are.


Ana was down at the dining table. Both of his palms supported his head which was painful and a little heavy.


"Angel!" maya shouted when she saw Ana suddenly drooping and fainting at the dinner table.


Ammo, who had just reached the dining room door, immediately ran to see Maya's panic.


"What's wrong with her?" ask Ammo.


"don't know. He came back irritated, after calling you to eat. Then I let it sit there, while I set the table. Suddenly she was like that when I got back from the kitchen" Maya replied.


"Did he just be pensive? Thinking hard?" ask Ammo to make sure.


"No, I noticed. He just looks upset, then shut up and sit there" Maya repeated.


"We'll take it to the room, '" broke up Ammo.


Maya nodded. He helped hold the bench so as not to fall when Ammo lifted the girl's body. The two ran into the hallway.


Maya moves quickly to open the wide door of their room. Ammo went in and laid Ana on the bed.


"You're not healed yet. Go eat first. Let me take care of him. We'll take turns" Ammo ordered.


"Good!" Maya.


The girl immediately stepped out. There was nothing he could do but follow orders.


Ammo opened a large closet where the clothes of her late mother were hung neatly there. He's looking for something on the closet shelf. Looking for something that smells sharp enough, which might evoke Ana's olfactory sensitivity.


Ammo shakes. His mother did not like strong-scented perfumes. Her mother loved the gentle scent of the breeze as well as the cold and calm like water.


Ammo opens the cover of one of the perfumes. He was familiar with that scent. It was the scent of his mother's body. Smelling the scent, Ammo could imagine her mother's smile and tenderness.


Ammo closed her eyes. Then close the perfume bottle and put it back on the shelf. The closet door closed again.
