-Somewhere in USA-

A lady who loves wearing red and black outfits. A lady with a head-turner presence. A voice with authority. Conceited yet playful personality. A CIA agent and currently a detective. A tall, gorgeous and very stunning woman who loves to play guns and good at self-defense. A sharp minded and a sharp shooter. Beauty, brain, wealth, fame? Commonly, she have them all.

"Meeting adjourned!" I immediately get my bag from the table and made my exit. I have a hearing to catch. I need to be there as soon as I can.

*Phone rings*

I picked up my phone and saw the recipient. Damn! It's Nathalia. My best friend here. She's a lawyer.

"Yes, I'm coming. I'm gonna be late for a minute but I'll catch up." I know what's her purpose of calling me. She heaved a sigh as she ended the call. I drive as fast as I could. Damn this traffic!

"Hey! What the fuck?! I have to be there!" napatawa na lamang ako sa sarili ko habang naisip na mag-isa akong nagmamaktol dito sa kotse.

"Bingo! Green light! Nat, here I am."

I am Kris Shynn Sage. 24 years old. Yes, you heard it right. Sage is my surname. Very unusual, right? I lived here in Chicago, USA. I am a CIA agent and currently a detective of Police Department. I lived here with my Aunt Lei as she took the responsibility of me when my parent's died. Died? Nah, they've been killed. I can speak tagalog fluently since I've spent my 15 years in the Philippines but I pursued my college here in Chicago.

After a long ride, I'm already here. I walked fast but gracefully as I entered the hall. Many of them were looking at me. What the hell? Ngayon lang ba sila nakakita ng conceited na CIA agent?

"Order in the court!" rinig kong bungad ng judge. I roam my sight to look for Nathalia, and there she goes.

"What took you so long? Traffic jam?" she greeted me with kiss on my cheek.

"Yes, Nat. Anyway, how's the case?"

"Doing great. Malapit nang matapos at ma acquit ang client ko." Yes. She's a lawyer and she's a half Filipino. So basically, she can speak Filipino.

"Good job, Attorney. I'm impressed." I told her wearing my playful smirk.

"I don't like that smile, Kris. Tigilan mo nga ako." I burst with laughters when I saw face turned into red. She's blushing.

"Ayaw mo ba talaga?" Panunukso ko pa rito. Ayaw na ayaw niya talagang makipagdate o makipagkilala man lang kahit na kanino.

"You know I don't do flings." she said while pouting. I chuckled a bit.

"We have a deal, Nat. Have you forgotten?" Yes, we do have a deal. Kung magiging successful ang kaso niyang ito ay papayag itong makikipagkita sa manliligaw niya. Matagal na rin iyon nanliligaw sa kanya pero hindi niya pinapansin.

"Fine. 6pm later. I'll wait. Sa dating tagpuan." I got it. Coffee shop. We both love coffee.

After the hearing, I headed straight to the mansion. Our mansion.

"Good afternoon, Young lady. " bati ng butler namin. Dang! How many times do I have to tell them that I don't want to be address that way? I faced him and give him a half smile.

"What did I order you to call me?" Namutla naman ito at saka binawi ang sinabi.

"M-miss Kris. Definitely, Miss Kris. I apologize." he said while giving me a bow.

"Well said. Now, where's Aunt Lei?"

"She left earlier, Miss. She said she needs to meet something. " sagot nito sa akin.
