things.

“I see.” Fiona replied nonchalantly.

He looked at her and smiled, “What about you? Do you want to get married and have a family as well? You have someone that’s in your mind?”

Hearing the last sentence, her eyes widened, and her cheeks were turning red. She shook her head and turned around to hide her blushing face.

“No. I don’t have time for that.” She tried to reply nonchalantly while looking at a wall.

Noah chuckled, “You should think about it as well. It’s never too late.”

She was just looking at the wall in front of her, not saying anything. She was thinking about the word she heard earlier.

‘You have someone that’s in your mind?’

That sentence lingers in her head, and she was having mixed feelings. She tried her best not to show any emotions, but this question made her heart waver.

She just looked at him on the side. He was sitting on the couch and just looking at the TV.

Fiona was trying her best not to show the redness of her face, and she was holding her hands together. She was trying to calm herself down. She can’t believe she is having mixed feelings because of a simple question.

Fiona stood up from her chair and walked toward the door of the room. She grabbed her trench coat and put it on.

“I’m going out. I need to find something for both of us later.” She replied.

Noah noticed this and said, “Alright. Take care.”

When she heard his reply, she went out of the room. She walked away and went outside of the hotel.

She was walking in the street, and the only thing she could think of was his face and his question.

‘Do I have someone that’s in my mind?’

‘Someone that I want to be with?’

Her heart was racing. Her palms were sweating. It was not the first time she felt these kinds of feelings, but it was something that she had never thought she would feel again.

She needed to clear her mind for now, as both of them needed to go on an undercover mission together later.

It was finally evening when they were done preparing everything they needed. Fiona wore a short black dress, while Noah wore a white shirt with a black jacket.

They looked like a couple that was about to go on a date.

“Are you sure that you’ll be okay wearing that?” Noah looked at her outfit.

Fiona nodded, “It’s for mobility, in case things go out of control. I don’t need to be so lavish so as to keep a low profile.”

“Well, I can only say you look good on it.” He said.

She cleared her throat and looked away. “Anyway, we need to focus now. We’ll be infiltrating the bar later, and we should act accordingly.”

“Yes. Let’s go together.” He nodded.
