Chapter 21!
THANKS TO MY REVIEWERS AND READERS!
Next month I have a English test, before the FCE so I need to study a lot, plus I'm back to university, so my dears, updates aren't going to be so frecuent.
A/N: I DO NOT OWN INCEPTION SADLY :(
"Are you insane? How could you ever-"
"I'm not insane Mr. Woods. Our client is offering us a lot of money, almost twenty millons to each one. And is not impossible. We just need to go deep enough"
Eames hesitated before said something, but Arthur stood up and shaked his head. He knew when Smith said deep, he talked about Limbo.
"I'm out. I'm not going that under"
Smith smiled at him, and drank the last sip of his coffee. "Is not complicated Mr. Woods. I know your work as Point Man is one of the best, that's the reason I asked for you. I assume I was wrong"
"Wrong about what?"
"You're not the Point Man I though you were. Strong, capable, ready for everything-"
Both men, Eames and Arthur stood up at the same time. The Forger fixed his jacket, showing his gun.
"Think about it, Eames, Arthur"
I woke up. I had sweat on my forehead and my hands were shaking.
My ring, I needed it. I rolled it once on my finger. I wasn't dreaming.
But my phone rang. It was my friend Anne.
"Pipa, how are you? You didn't-"
"Anne, would you like to come home today, after class?"
"Oui. See you"
"Arthur, we need to think about it, it's twenty milions each one!"
They were walking through the parisian streets under the rain. Arthur was furious for Smith's words. He knew that he was trying to push him, making everything in order to make him accept the job.
"Do you realize what he want to do? He want to change a mental condition, Eames. If the target is insane, we have to go very deep into his mind in order to find what is making him insane, and then plant an idea. Is risky"
The forger just nodded, and once they were in Arthur's door, they saw a petite girl with glasses, holding a few books.
"Anne?"
"Oui. Bonjour Sirs. I came to see Pipa"
Anne was the only true friend that Phillipa had since she was in Paris. Also, she was totally the oposite from her, quite and shy. But they complement each other in a way. They knew that Phillipa loved her like her sister.
"Oh. Come with us, maybe she didn't hear the bell"
When they were inside, Arthur guided Anne to Phillipa's room, and he and the forger just sat in the living room, trying to think about Smith's idea.
"Anne! How you-"
"Your uncle and your dad found me downstairs. How are you Pipa? You're pale"
She sighed, and closed the door, not before making sure that nobody was near the room.
"Anne, if I told you something, can you promise me that you'll keep it, right?"
The pettite girl nodded, and sat on the floor with her friend.
"She's in love"
He was walking in a desolated street. Everything looked like no one lived there for a long time. Like an area devastated by an huracan, or an eartquake.
Mal was standing beside him, wearing the same violet dress from the night she jumped.
"Mal? What are you doing here?"
"Phillipa, my only daughter. You let her go. You hurted her"
"I don't-"
"Don't me. Her heart is broken, and he's trying to fix it"
Mal's words were dark, careless. She never made any eye contact with him. She looked at the building in front of them.
"Who? What are you talking about?"
"Don't you see it, honey? You'll find out soon"
He woke up, with tears on his eyes. He looked for something he didn't touch a long time ago. His totem.
"What is happening, Pipa?"
"Anne, he's not my father, and uncle Arthur is not my uncle. Technically they are my uncles"
She nodded, making Phillipa continue with her story.
"Eames, who you think is my father, is my uncle. And Arthur, who you think is my uncle, is my- we're together"
Anne's mouth was becoming a big 'O'.
"I came here to Paris, running from my real dad. My mother commited suicide, and I heard him talking to his new wife when he was with her, the night she jumped from a window. He didn't do anything to save her... So We had a discussion, and- I ran with Arthur. I always loved him. And one day I told him about my feelings, and since that day we are together"
There was a long silence, until Anne spoke.
"It's ok Pipa. I'm not going to tell this to anyone. Now I understand. It was a kind of weird that you live here with your uncle and not with your 'dad'"
They laughed together, when the door opened. It was Eames.
"Hey girls, it's almost noon. What you want to eat? I assume that you my dear Anne, are staying with us"
"Um, if Pipa wants-"
"Of course I want you to stay"
They for went to a little restaurant near Arthur's place. The clouds dissapeared fro the sky, and then it became blue.
"Tell us Anne, you have brothers, sisters?"
"No, I live with my parents"
"You don't know, right? Anne's parents have their own architectural firm, don't they Anne?"
The forger drank a sip of his water, and looked at the petite girl in front of him.
"Really? That's why you are a great student. Phillipa told us about your work"
"I know a few companies in Paris. What's the name of your parent's firm?"
Arthur frowned, trying to remember a few names, when Anne interrumpted her thoughts.
"Smith Architecture"
A/N2: Me again. Thanks for the reviews again :)
OMG, I want to die. Several Airlines had cancelled a lot of flights here in Buenos Aires, and I suppose to leave next week! Sh*t!
Well, I know that maybe you don't care too much about these coments, but, WTH! Hahaha, yes people, I'm tired and I'm just fooling around now... Anyway, let me know what you think about this chapter. It's completly unbetad, so any mistake is mine.
