Unravels
Chapter 2's
Rose woke up with an alarm sound indicating eight o'clock. The woman immediately took her HP and looked at the incoming notification. His eyes immediately sparkled and a wide smile fell on his lips. As expected, he was accepted to work at the company he was applying for. Fortunately, he only has to work next week, so there is still plenty of time to buy some of the items he needs as well as adjust the schedule to deliver the package.
After finishing the shower and getting ready, he drove to the company area where the booker. Arriving there, he showed the chat to the security officer as told. There was nothing strange about that area of the company, just an ordinary large building with a few guards in front of it. Rose saw a woman with long white hair waiting in front of the building.
“Excuse me, I want to take a package,” Rose said.
“This package and also the money, please deliver to the destination yes,” said the woman.
Rose simply nodded in affirmation of the woman's words, although in her heart she felt a bit strange. ‘Does he think I'll bring this package blur?’, Inner Rose. After that, Rose picked up some of the other packages before starting to deliver them to their destination. Everything goes smoothly until it arrives at the last package, which is the package from that company. Rose accidentally escorted the package last because of its farthest distance.
Rose observed the increasingly quiet streets with trees lined up on the left and right of the road. Anxious feelings began to take hold of his mind, what should he do if there was a stupor? Just thinking like that, suddenly there was a figure that jumped into the middle of the road and made Rose have to brake his motor. Several other figures began to surround him.
“What is this? Whoareyou? What do you want?” rose asked, trying to hide her fear.
One of them, the highest figure, moved his hand gesturing to the other. It all happened so quickly, the next few seconds, one of them had already restrained Rose's body while the other took the package she was carrying.
“Release! Return the package!” rose shouted, hoping that someone would hear her voice.
The person who took the package handed the package he held to the signer. At first glance, Rose could see a bracelet on her right hand.
“I said give back the package!” rose said while still trying to escape from the person holding her back.
Their leader again gestured, and they left quickly from the place without member Rose a chance to react.
“Sial!” maki Rose is upset.
Suddenly Rose's phone shook, and when Rose saw the contents of the incoming message, her face instantly turned anxious. The owner asks if the package has arrived.
“Dead me, what do I have to say now? What if he asks me to change the contents of the package?” mumbling Rose.
After a few minutes of thought, Rose decided to be honest with the owner of the package. He waited for a reply with anxious feelings. However, beyond Rose's expectations, the owner of the package did not blame him and said that he would leave the package again to her next time. The owner of the package also explained that such events had occurred frequently, and Rose did not have to replace the contents of the lost package.
“Luck it, but who are they? Why did they take the package? Are they just thieves?” mumbling Rose. Rose went home to her dorm still with a questionable mind.
...****************...
“What will we do with this package now? I scanned the package with the X-Ray, it was just a bottle of liquid. I can't be sure what liquid it is,” Elga said.
“Try you open the contents what Shane,” said Zi.
“Why me?” grouse Shane.
“That's because you lost the suit earlier,” taunted Elga.
With half a grumble, Shane opened the package. As Elga said earlier, there was nothing in there except a perfume bottle. Shane lifted the bottle, trying to see more clearly. But suddenly the bottle sprayed its own contents onto Shane's face.
“Argh!” shane shouted in pain.
“Oh shit, that's Capsicum gas! Quickly get him some water!” Zi Commandments.
Elga immediately took a bucket of water that she was pouring straight into Shane's face.
“Uhuk, uhuk, uhuk!” Shane coughed and vomited some water which he accidentally swallowed.
“Can you be gentle a little?” shane protest.
“You better get soaked than your face burns from gas, right?” said Elga.
“Already, stop fighting. Vin, check the wound,” Zi told Vina.
“She is fine sis, it was just a minor burn,” Vina said.
“Other times we should be more careful, wear a gas mask before opening the package,” suggested Elga.
“Lain times?” ask Shane.
“Yes, I just got a signal again. Looks like they'll get the courier to drop off the package again.”
“You keep an eye on their communication, we will move as soon as the package is sent,” Zi said.
“Good sister.”
...****************...
The next day after the package was taken, Rose decided to leave the service for a day. She makes an appointment to meet Annie at her school and plans to go to the cafe. Right now Rose was already waiting for Annie in front of the school gate while watching the passing high school students.
“Rose!” a voice shouted his name.
Rose turned her head and found Annie walking towards him along with another girl. Rose smiled and waved her hand.
“Have you been waiting a long time?” ask Annie.
“New ten minutes, this is your friend?” rose asked as she observed the girl who was with Annie.
The girl was about 156cm tall with a black hair cut to the shoulder and a sharp gaze. Both hands he put in the pocket of the jacket he was wearing. In just one observation Rose knew that this girl was not the type to talk a lot.
“Iya, meet her name Elga,” Annie said.
Elga looked at Rose's outstretched hand a few seconds before shaking it and replied briefly, “Elga.”
In her heart Rose wondered about the bracelet she had just seen on Elga's right hand. The bracelet was similar to the one Rose saw in the hands of the package taker.
“Oh yes Elga, if you may know where you got the bracelet you are wearing from? The shape is unique, I want to buy it too,” asked Rose.
Elga frowned, looking unsuspecting Rose's question, “I got it from my mother. It is not sold anywhere.”
“So yeah? Too bad,” Rose said with a smile.
“I'll go first, you guys have fun,” Elga told Annie.
“Sorry yes, Elga is indeed her quiet child,” Annie said.
“It's okay, by the way why isn't he coming with us?” ask Rose.
“Elga does not really like to go to crowded places. He also can not be so familiar with new people.”
“Oh, sorry yes. Maybe you guys have an appointment and because of me you guys are not going out.”
“Nothing, I can still meet with Elga next time.”
“If you can know where your friend's house was?” ask Rose.
“Home is in elite housing, why?” ask Annie.
“Nothing, I just want to be friends with him. You know for yourself, you're my only friend in this city,” Rose said.
Meanwhile, in her heart Rose was heartbroken, ‘If she did live in an elite area, why would she have to steal a package?”. Rose is convinced that Elga was one of the people who stole her package yesterday. Butwhy?.
“Rose?”
“Sorry, I was thinking about something else,” Rose told Annie.
For now he will wait for a package order from that company, because Rose has a plan that he will do if he receives a package order from that company again. This time, Rose would not let anyone pick up the package again. A smile is reflected on Rose's lips, ‘Wait a minute, I'll catch you’.
...****************...
“What's El?” zi asked Elga who had been silent on the sofa since.
“I met the courier in high school,” Elga said.
“How can? Did he deliver the package there?”
“No, she turns out to be Annie's acquaintance. I met her last time, her name was Rose Nightingale.”
“Did he suspect you?” ask Zi.
“No, but I feel bad about involving someone Annie known to our mission,”.
“Come on El, we won't hurt him. We'll just take that package from him.”
“I know brother, but what if they do something to him?” ask Elga.
“If that happens, we will help him. As we always do. Does that make you feel better?”
“Thanks brother,” says Elga.
“Have they specified the next shipment?”
“Iya, the next package will be sent tomorrow.”
“Good, tell everyone to get ready,” Zi said.
