"All of me loves all of You"
Chapter 1: Unclear Introduction
The sound of the sliding doors caught Ada's attention again. The glass doors parted to reveal a young couple holding hands and giggling on high school jokes. Like before, they were not the person she had been in the five star restaurant to meet. Some of her superiors thought that this was a professional meeting. She had been sent on such meetings before too but this was what she had decided to do on her own, by her own. She was sick of meeting the persons whom she didn't know anything about. No doubt sometimes even government sent people that were as inexperienced as a newly born baby and such people usually gave her headaches. So, waiting for the very familiar face, she shifted her position on the chair. Her legs had already started feeling sore. Instead, her concentration went back to the couple.
I used to be of that age too, she thought.
But that was long gone now. There were times when she thought that civilians were nothing but mean and selfish. They had the courtesy of living a normal life like going to work every day and waiting for weekends. Their worries didn't exceed than missing a bus, being stuck in traffic or watching their favourite team lose the football match. And sometimes taking the time to express their opinions on political parties and cursing them for not solving their problems. But who could blame normal people? That was why they were called normal. They didn't know what was going on behind the walls of top floor offices and in the laboratories under warehouses. They weren't aware of a single tragedy that people like her had passed through. They didn't even know the A,B,C of zombies, ganadoes, viruses and outbreaks. Even if they did, they were successful in ignoring it which she was not very lucky in. Yeah. Sums it all. Normal people were lucky. Unlike her.
She almost frowned on calling herself unlucky. She wasn't unlucky at all. Rather she was one of the only people on mother earth who had everything they wanted. Or...almost everything.
Her eyes darted to the watch she was wearing on her left wrist informing her that her contact was already half an hour late. She was thinking of getting up and leaving before she saw him coming. Them to be precise. Four men in military uniform made their way to her. The one in the middle being the lead.
'Sorry to keep you waiting, Wong. Got trapped in traffic." The man with a lot of stars said sitting in front of her while the others just kept standing.
She nodded in response only to add, "Did you really have to bring this number of people just to talk to me?" with a smirk in the end.
"Standard protocol." he said while shrugging, "Plus, nothing can be predicted wherever you are involved." he replied with slight humour in his tone.
Ada rolled her eyes.
"Should I be flattered, General Carl?" Ada asked.
"I'll leave it on you. Now, I'm sure you already know why we're here. After all, you're the smartest we have."
"You're using kind words, General." she replied, noticing the change in his expressions when she called him general for the second time in their conversation. "Anyway, I'll be glad to hear anything you're here for."
"Who is using kind words now?" he retorted."Well, I just came to see if you're doing alright, actually."
"You don't need to worry about me."
"Of course I do." he said and stood up to leave. "Take care..." Then he seemed like he was considering what he had said."Like you do it anymore by yourself." he completed with a shake of his head. Ada didn't reply other than turned to leave.
He had merely walked two steps when he heard Ada stand up too. ''Dad" she called. He stopped in his track and turned. Her face was a mixture of sadness, remorse and guilt. "I'm sorry."
He went back to her. With a deep sigh he uttered, "That's not your fault, Ada. Nothing was your fault. Whatever happened, had to happen. Anyone would've done what you did but you've taken it too far. You need to let it go."
"I'm trying." she said while looking down at her hands.
"Try haven't made any wrong decision up till now. And I'm sure you won't do it in the future." he said while giving her his best smile." Take care" he repeated.
"I will." She said with a smile, all expressions from earlier, gone.
He turned with the other militia men following after him. She watched him leave the restaurant until he was out of her sight. Ada smiled when his words replayed in her mind again reminding her how much she loved him. He had the most significant and vital part in making her as strong as she was now.
No, maybe not now. There was something else holding her together at present, always will in the future too.
She didn't want to think about what had happened a month ago. Always refused to. She would never want to admit that she had made a mistake; the biggest mistake of her life, that ruined everything. That ruined her. Ada Wong would feel like a fool if she said she didn't regret that day. Assassins and spies like her were trained better than to feel ruefulness over the dirty deeds they did. The thing that prickled at her the most was the fact that whatever she did was not intentional. She was known as a spy, the ill-famed bitch responsible for the viral outbreak in China. The truth was, she could never make herself take away a human life; not at least an innocent one. But she had come to the conclusion of forgiving herself and letting go of the unpleasant memories that took place past month.
Pushing her thoughts aside, she stepped onto the busy roads and streets. The sunlight was turning to a muddy colour peeking from the spaces between the marvelous buildings of Washington D.C. Without even a trivial effort, she located her car. She walked to it with her signature gait and was about to unlock when her cell phone rang. Seeing the more-than-familiar caller ID, she pressed the answer button.
''Yeah?" she said a little too casually.
"I see, skipping the formalities?" the voice on the other end said.
"My apologies!" she said with detectable sarcasm in her voice, "What service would you like me to do for you,Sire?"
"Now, let's not get meeky!" then the male voice suddenly meant business, " I want him here at twelve at any cost. Injured, bruised, drugged, passed out...I don't care. Just make sure to keep him alive."
Ada seemed to hesitate but she didn't let the man on line sense it. He would know if he saw her face to face though. "I know. Otherwise he would be of no use!"
"Right, Ada. I'm hundred percent sure you'll prove yourself like you always do. Just make sure that Kennedy doesn't become suspicious."
How would he become suspicious if he's passed out, idiot.
"I will"
"Just bring him here and he'll get what he deserves."
"And how am I suppos-" she began but was cut off by "That's your problem". Not even listening to what she was going to say.
She would've shown anger in such moments but this one was different. She had a task and this task involved Leon Scott Kennedy. Not that he would be shocked. A lot of her missions had included him in the past. The hard part in this one was to hand him over to someone, temporarily though. Like it mattered. She dialed a number on her phone making sure to change the sim card.
Time to play I-Need-Your-Help...
After two dial tones her call was answered by an attractive voice, "Hello?"
Alright...
"Miss me, handsome?" she asked in a seductive tone.
"Ada?" was the only answer she received.
