"Sunny?"
I turned towards the voice and smiled.
"Hello," I greeted the aunt.
"It's been so long since I saw you in church," she said before giving me a brief hug.
"Yeah. I just came to visit for a while. I arrived at 11 am already. Just joining the youth activities today for fun. Nothing more," I told her.
"You've converted, right?" the aunt asked.
I nodded, "Yeah. For marriage."
She smiles and nodded, "Don't worry. We will still be opening the doors for you."
I chuckled, "Thank you. Um, may I ask you a question?"
"Of course," she replied.
"Is the pastor still here? Jared? Pastor Jared," I said.
She gasped softly, "Oh, he transferred to Peninsular. Penang."
"He transferred there?" I asked in confusion.
"Yes. He converted a lot of atheists from the village and he was given the honour. He works at the Seventh-Day Adventist's headquarters in Penang right now," the aunt said.
"Oh, wow," I muttered and nodded. "Good for him."
"Why did you ask about him?" she inquired.
"I was just trying to get in touch with him. I needed some Christian advice. More on marriage," I told her.
"Oh, I do have someone who has his number. The youth director is close friends with the pastor. Would you like me to get his number for you?" the aunt asked.
"I'm so sorry for troubling you. It's alright if it troubles you," I told her.
"Not at all!" She exclaimed while shaking her head.
"If so, I would appreciate it a lot, aunt," I thanked her again and again.
"There's no problem with that. Wait here, I'll get his number for you. I'll go talk with the director for a minute," she said before walking away.
I needed some answers because I have a lot of questions. I did inquire answer from a Muslim leader but I need more answers to make sure I make the right decision. Some may say being religious and believing in God is useless and nonsense.
But not in my case. I grew up in a family that is Christian and we believe in God. Now, I'm a converted Muslim and I want to understand Islam too. Understanding a lot of religions definitely is actually an asset. Especially when you truly understand.
The Bible and Quran. There are a lot of interesting words in it that make you wonder. You awe and you're surprised. A lot of surprises that you will definitely find fascinating.
But for now, I'm only searching more information and advice for marriage.

Tengku Hassanal was in his personal office when his PA came in to inform him that Sunny was outside the door. He was confused because Sunny didn't inform anything to him about coming to meet him before the minute.
"Let her in," said Tengku Hassanal.
Sunny entered his office with a white file in her hands. Only that. She was wearing a collared blouse with jeans on. Definitely a no for formal events in the palace.
"Why didn't you inform me you were flying here?" Tengku Hassanal questioned.
"This was an abrupt plan. I need to tell you something," Sunny said as she approached his desk.
He raised his eyebrows and eyes the file in her hand. She exhaled and put the file on his desk as soon as she reach near to the desk.
"Why so formal? What's going on?" he asked as he reached for the file.
"I made a terrible mistake lying to my ex-husband. And I don't want to repeat the same mistake. And if you feel that this secret of mine is too much for you to handle, please," Sunny exhaled heavily.
"Feel free to cancel our wedding and break off our engagements," Sunny said.
Tengku Hassanal was stunned. What was her secret till she said about cancelling the wedding and breaking off their engagements? Was it too big?
"I'll leave now. I'll be here in Pahang until Thursday. I'll be here for 3 days. If you want to settle our engagements, I'll be here. But I have to leave now," Sunny said before turning away and walking towards the door.
"Sun-" Tengku Hassanal stuttered before sighing when she exits his office.
He took out the papers and also some photos which he founds weird. After seeing the photos, he was confused. Seeing Sunny in all-black outfits and then seeing her in a military uniform. It was definitely confusing for Tengku Hassanal.
After seeing all the official documents, all the official signatures and stamps of the Chief of Army and the Chief of Defence Force, Tengku Hassanal dropped to lean on his chair.
He read the next paper that says that Sunny was working with the Malaysian Spy Department. She also spies for the Secret Service, based in the US which shocked Tengku Hassanal. He stood from his chair and breathe heavily.
He looked at the photos that were clipped with the papers. A photo of Sunny and her team. And that includes the K-Pop idols who were once, a team.
He also saw the photos of Sunny's back neck slit open to take out the tracking chip that was planted behind her. Tengku Hassanal looked at the envelope before turning it upside down and dropping a slim USB.
He picked it up and insert it into his PC. A video was contained inside. He pressed it and Sunny's face shows up on his screen.
"Today marked the 18th year, working for the Secret Service. But now, I'm signing off. We're signing off. The agency has been using me, or us, for a long time. I've been in here since I was 7 years old. Since I was a child."
"Having an IQ of 200 and still rising till the present day, these people want to use me at my maximum level of IQ. Doing crimes in silence. But I'm done planning for them."
"I just want to live a normal life. As a normal person. Without having to disguise me as someone else or, hide my identity."
"I've been through a lot of training. I trained at their hidden place. Trained as a Korean military. Trained as a Malaysian military. I've been hiding. All those fractured bones, cuts, shots, bruises and all mental health illness I have gone through."
"One of it is because of this fucking shit right here. I'm done. I'm exhausted. I've had more than 20 nails in my bones. 20 steel in my bones to exchange the bones. I"m very exhausted already."
"Took off my chip, and stopped their tracking bracelets. Stop them. They're desperate to get me back. I'm sure until the future, I will still be their target."
"I don't know what the future holds for me but I'm sure, they will always be on my tail. I'm just very scared that the people I love, my family, and my friends, will be the next target. I'm scared. I'm just hoping things will go wrong just because of me."
"So, I'm going to stop while I still can run. I don't know how long I'll be running. But, I'm pretty sure I'm going to live in fear forever. Even right now, I'm married to the person I love, I doubt he can protect me when it comes to me and the secret agents."
"So, it's gonna be tough. Anyone watching this, I'm sorry you have to see me in this condition. All dirty and exhausted. This might be my last video."
"Since I'm done with this all shit. I'm done. This will be the last. So, bye."
The video ended and Tengku Hassanal exhaled before getting up from his seat. He hissed while looking at all the official documents along with the photos.
"What should I do now?"
He muttered.

I sighed as I look over the field. There were fewer to no people at the cafe. Probably because it's weekdays and it's working hours. Since I'm at the top of the hill, the temperature is very low. I had to wear a layer of a thick jacket.
I scrolled through my phone, looking through my gallery. To kill time, I transferred all the photos to my unlimited storage on Google Drive. It's time to clean my phone's storage.
Cleaning all my gallery, my phone storage, and my chats and I uninstalled some apps that I don't really use. Clean everything. Up and down, left and right. Need to make my phone a little lighter.
I close my eyes as I try to ease my mind. Finally having some peace of mind. Away from all workloads. As I was easing my mind, I heard and felt a chair being pulled behind and I opened my eyes. I was surprised to see Tengku Hassanal in front of me.
He put his cup of tea on the table and sat in front of me. I looked at him and he looked back at me. I exhaled and lean on the chair.
"How did you find me?" I ask.
"Mommy told me about you," he replied as he leaned nearer to the table.
I raised my eyebrows and nodded, "Okay."
He exhaled, "I've gone through everything. Let mommy look at your documents too."
I look at him with wide eyes, "Why?" I asked in a panicked tone.
He shook his head, "Just mommy. She deserves to know about this. At least mommy if not daddy too."
I closed my eyes and sighed.
"Hey," he said.
"I was surprised. I was shocked. But after some time, it's alright. You did it all because you were tied to them. You did it all by force. Even if you did it willingly, I have to say that I am proud of where you are today," he said.
I shook my head, "No. You shouldn't be proud of me. If these things go out, people won't feel proud about this. I kept this a secret."
He shook his head, "I have never heard a woman in her teens, through her young adult until today, she's a warrior. She's a military. I'm proud of you, Sunny. I'm really proud. And I am sure, mommy will be very proud of you too. You're strong."
"You're one of the strongest women I've ever met. You went through all of these. You let people take advantage of you. They used you for years and stepping out of it, putting all those people in their places, making a decision to get out of that circle, that toxic one, you should be proud of yourself because it's not an easy decision to make."
I looked at him.
"You're brave. You're courageous. Maybe even braver than me. Stronger than me. So, don't think that I will call off our engagement just because of this. This won't make me lose feelings for you. When I say I love you, I meant it, Sunny. I love you with all my heart."
Tears welled in my tears.
"And if you think I won't protect you? No, I will protect you even if it means, I need to hold a gun and kill someone. No one can hurt you. Not even our family. Verbally or physically. You need to tell me everything. Including when someone from my family, talks ills about you."
"Don't think I don't know about them saying that you're a single mother and I'm marrying you. Them saying that you're just an attention seeker and want to be more famous, but you're not that. I know. And I know I'm doing the right decision."
"So, I'm telling you. This is the final decision. I love you, and I want to marry you, make you my wife, mother to my future children and the queen. If I need to change the law for you, I will."
"I won't let you suffer."
"That's the final decision of mine."
"You're safe with me."
