Chapter 2

The man handed over her phone after entering his number. Bloom looked at her phone and immediately nave the agent's number. Crush is what he put its name on.

"Thank you!" she smiled.

"Welcome!"

The traffic was moving again.

"Crush, what's your name?"

But the man quickly started his motorbike and did not answer her question. Even so, she just shuddered and hugged her phone. She even bit her lip so hard.

"Uncle, I want to get married!" she suddenly spoke.

The old man laughed at what she said and shook his head. The car started but she did not see even the shadow of the cool agent. He was sensible and gave in to her whim. She continued to crush on the agent of Men in Action but now she has a favourite. Its Crush!

Meanwhile... Clear has arrived at the Men in Action building. He immediately entered the building when he parked his motorbike. Aboard the elevator he immediately went to the office of the C.O. as he walked down the hallway, he couldn't help but smile as he remembered that beautiful woman who had been riding in the taxi earlier. He was happy with it so he was willing to give his phone number. The message alert tone of his phone rang. he read the message and... "Hi, crush! hope ur ok."

The number is unregistered but he already knows who texted. He saved the number and named it Crush. Then an idea entered his brain. He called it.

Bloom did not know what to do when her phone rang and she saw Crush was calling. She just arrived at her best-friend Gida's boutique. She nervously answered the call. Seriously, the force of the beating of her chest. Is it going to explode?

"H-Hello?" she hesitated.

"Hi, Crush... Don't worry about me. I'm fine."

She was stunned because her heart seemed to melt when she heard its soft voice. She could not answer.

"Are you alright?" he even asked.

She took a deep breath to calm herself.

"I-I'm fine. I'm sorry. I was just too star struck?"

She bit her lip so hard when she heard his soft laugh.

"Let's talk later, I'm busy. I’m off to work, crush. Bye!"

"B-Bye!"

She shuddered and hugged her phone. Gida entered their shop. It reached her with such a gesture.

"Hey gay! What happened to you?" he asked.

She looked at her friend puzzled.

"I-I had an appointment with a Men in Action agent earlier and he even gave me his phone number... Then, I texted him and he suddenly called me!"

"Really? Which of them did you meet?"

She hesitated to look at her friend's face.

"Eh I didn't ask the name. I forgot because I was star struck..."

"Oh my! Your so stupid my friend!" Gida rolled his eyes.

"It's you! You don't introduce me to Kuya Venom's friends! Until now, he is the only agent I know of in Men in Action." she complained.

"I'm sorry, but I’m always busy. I have a lot of work to do. Also, I rarely get lucky with those hot guys right? So there is not much chance that I can show you to them even if I want to. But at least, destiny has made the moves for your fantasy. What does he look like so I can say his name?"

"Tall..."

"And..?"

"Gida, he was wearing a helmet earlier so I did not see the face."

"Gaga! I hope you look at his initials in his uniform."

(Gaga-idiot or stupid)

"I never thought of that because I even remembered getting his phone number earlier. It was too late when I asked him what his name was because he had already left." her regretted language.

"Let it go, you already have his number. Just text him to ask his name. But later, let's work."

"Okay!"

She put down her phone. She is the creator of the designs of the clothes that Gida and his staff sew. Plus, she is also the flower-arranger at the events of their customers and they have a flower shop by Gida that she is in charge of managing because her best-friend doesn't know much about flowers. However, their combined creativity in the business they entered was extreme.

Meanwhile, Clear is facing Siege and is holding a folder.

"What is my job?" he asked immediately.

Siege sigh and look at him straight.

"Your job is to locate a syndicate that illegally drops firearms for hired-killers and gangs. They are also involved in kidnapping and carnapping. We need to knock them down because they are already a major plague on society. Here is all the classified information you need in the folder."

Siege handed him the folder which he immediately took. He will study it later.

"You will pretend to be a taxi driver to find their hideout and in which specific places they carry out their transactions. We have prepared everything and you can start later. Report to us all the information you can gather after that we will immediately carry out a plan and conduct an immediate operation against them. And finally, be careful."

"Thanks. All right, I’ll do the job now."

Siege just nodded at him and turned away. He walked out and went straight to his barracks. When he arrived there, he found his uniform and items such as a fake Identification Card. He immediately changed his clothes. His job is to spy and gather information in a large syndicate. He smiled. He also spent a lot of time in the field work and he did all the office work. Fortunately, he did not neglect rehearsals. He immediately got dressed and got ready for work.

In the evening Bloom was forced to go home alone. Her uncle felt bad so he could not pick her up. She was shaken. Is that what her cousins are saying? She is alone in her house because her mother was with her older brother and she is busy taking care of her nephews. She visits the province when she has time. She looked at her watch. It is ten o'clock in the evening. She sighed and continued walking. There were almost no vehicles passing by and she still doubted if he had a sensible taxi to park.

She felt someone following her so she simply accelerated her pace. She swallowed and was terrified when she heard footsteps coming. It looks like the one following her is running. She stopped running when he felt something sharp focus on her side and she saw an unknown man in the corner of her eye. It is quite small, and had tattoos in the body. It caught up with her.

"Give me your bag if you don't want to be stab!"

She was confused. But her uncle instructed her not to fight in this situation.

"Y-Yes! Just don't hurt me!"

She immediately handed her bag to the man. After he got her bag, it quickly ran away and she did nothing more. Great! She can't even ask for help because even her phone was stolen! Fortunately, there were no important papers or cards included in the items he stole. And fortunately when she goes out, she does not carry all her money. She just puts a specific amount for that day. She bit her lip so hard. It suddenly misted and gradually the heavy rain poured down.

Meanwhile, Clear was a little bored with the spy. So far, he has not noticed any strange activity. Almost all the passengers he boarded earlier teased him if he was really a taxi driver? He was struck by that thought. He grabbed his pocket and get his phone. Many female passengers begged him to get his number but he pretended he did not have a phone. He did not want to give it to them because they did not get his attention. He remembered Crush so he took his phone and immediately dialled its number. He has not yet gotten its name because he forgot. His forehead furrowed when the operator answered. Unattended or Out of coverage?

"Maybe her phone’s battery is drained." he sighed.

He pocketed his phone annoyed. He continued to spin the route assigned to him even though it was raining heavily. Even before he could get away, he saw a woman on the side of the road next to the streetlight. He quickly parked his car next to her when he saw that woman and she was already shivering in the cold. He quickly got out of the car and was a little taken aback when he saw who it was... Crush! He immediately approached it.

"Miss, are you okay?!"

Bloom looked up when she heard that voice. He was slightly taken aback when he saw a tall man wearing a taxi-driver uniform. Its body is quite muscular and its long dark hair is ponytailed and its eyebrows are a little thick. Grey is the color of its eyes which is a bit narrow. Sharp nose with prominent shape and beautiful lips with only a moderate shape. Its teeth are very white and evenly spaced. Can be used in the toothpaste commercial. The man, on the other hand, looked kind, she was very grateful and he just appeared. She shook trembling.

"I- I was holdup..." she said tremblingly.

She did not know if it was because of that cold or fear. She think, she was traumatized by what happened?!

"H-Ha?!"

It quickly looked around. When he saw that there was no one else around but them he turned to her again.

"Are you okay? Do you feel bad?! Did they hurt you or did they do something bad to you?!" he asked again and again.

She shook her head. She was actually crying earlier. Not just obvious because of the rainwater hitting her face. But she felt her eyes bulge. If this morning was her luck, now her luck has been replaced by an inexplicable misfortune!

"I-If you trust me... Can you come with me and we will report what happened to the nearest precinct?" this question is ambiguous.

She looked at the face of the man. It has also been wet because it approach her. And it does not seem to care. It looks trustworthy even though she is not convinced that it is really a taxi-driver. She read his name on the Identification Card hanging on his clothes. Clear Imperial — the man's name.

"A-All right." she just answered.

He led her to a parked taxi and they immediately got into the car. Her hands were still shaking and even the simple fastening of the seatbelt, she could not do.

"Let me."

The man fastened her seatbelt and sighed. Soon she could not restrain herself. She buried her face in her palms and cried. She did not know if that would ever end. She was really scared too much of what happened earlier. Concerned that Clear looked at the woman. Fortunately, it was just a simple holdup and the villain did not think to take advantage of it. By chance, he will hunt it down and he will surely give a horrible death! He pulled out a tissue.

"Miss, here's the tissue. You'll just cry over that first to calm down."

"T-Thank you."

Bloom immediately grabbed the tissue and was no longer embarrassed when she cried even more. She wiped her tears regularly and wiped her cold. She doesn't care anymore. Clear smiled secretly as he watched the woman's nose turn red. I mean, by Crush. She’s cute.
