Chapter 15

Athena is now cornered by the three snatchers. She felt nervous, but she composed herself not to show to those bad guys what she really is feeling right now. She knows how to fight but this time, she's afraid she cannot do it. Aside from they are three, each of them are handling a small knife, and their body are very masculine. She clenched her fists ready to fight. When someone came up.

"Hey! Leave her alone!" The three men are grinning.

"And who do you think you are to stop us? If you don't want to get involve here, don't interfere!" Said by one of the suspect.

Athena is looking at the guy. He seemed very familiar to him. She shrugged at that thought when she saw him clearly as the man walk towards them like a model. She was stunned by the looks of a man. He is wearing a gray V-neck shirt under his black leather jacket, black pants and a combat shoes.

"Who are you?" one of the snatchers asked.

"You don't even need to know" His cold baritone voice echoed. It gives shivers to Athena.

One of the bad guys attacked him. But he is quick! He immediately kicked the man in the hand causing him to throw the knife he was holding. He followed again with another kick around it, and it hit the man's face. The man's companions frowned. They attacked the stranger at the same time, but he escaped immediately. He grabbed the hands of the men who attacked him and twisted them causing their bones in the hand to break, and they let go of the knife they were holding. The suspects are groaning in pain.

Athena stared in amazement at what the man had done. The stranger who helped him did not even sweating. He just saw that the three men who had attacked him almost had lost consciousness.

"Woah" she said with amused

"Are you okay? Did they hurt you?" she was back on her senses, when she heard that familiar voice. She frowned. She looked at the man who's worriedly looking at her, checking if she has injuries.

" W-who, are you? Did you know me?" she asked out of curiosity. The stranger picked up her bag and give it to her.

He stiffened a bit, but then he composed himself. "You don't have to know." he said coldly.

"T-thanks." She sincerely said.

"Why you're walking in the streets alone?" he asked with his brows knitted.

"I just want to walk and go to the nearest mall." she pointed to the building of the mall nearby. She realized why she had to explain to the man, when she did not know him.

"Wait... why do I have to explain to you? I don't even know you. But thanks for helping me anyway." She frowned as she looked at the man in front of him. His hands now are inside his pocket. He twisted his lips as he restrains himself from laughing. He did not think that his girlfriend did not recognize him. Furthermore, he wants to introduce himself to his girlfriend, but it is better that the girl does not know anything about him, so that he can keep his girlfriend out of danger.

"Let me introduce myself. I'm Agent A. And you are?" He held out his hand to shake the girl's hand.

"Pleased to meet you mister. I'm Athena Meredith." They shook hands.

"By the way, your name is just Agent A? You don't have a real name?" Agent A shrugged.

"Even if I want to say my full name, it is not possible. That's our protocol. I'm an agent from the US. That's the only thing I could say. Come I will take you to the mall. Maybe there will be another thief that will block you here." He said. Athena just nod and they walk with him.

When they arrived at the mall, Agent A immediately said goodbye and left. Only then did Athena remember to call her boyfriend.

"H-Hello" Athena stuttered.

"Hello! Thank God you called again. I was worried and sick. I was trying to call you, but it says cannot be reach.! Are you okay?" He said lying.

Although she had doubts in her mind, that her boyfriend might have been with her earlier, now she has confirmed that her boyfriend did not save her. But her heart says that they have resemblance. From body posture to voice, as well as appearance the only difference is Michael Angelo always wears glasses.

"I'm fine. Someone rescued and help me from those bad guys." She said plainly.

"Oh. What is his name? Is he a police? Are you with him? So I could say thank you." He said

"He left already. Wait! How did you know that it's a guy who helped me awhile ago?" She suspiciously asked.

"Ah... I-I J-just thought t-that it's a boy. " He stuttered.

Her eyes narrowed to what she heard. Even though she is skeptical now, she still needs evidence, because her heart says that her boyfriend and the man named agent A, are one. So she'll buy to whatever her boyfriend is saying right now. She smirked at that thought.

"Yes he is a man. A handsome man." She heard her boyfriend cough. She silently laughed.

"Are you sick? Your coughing." She said teasingly.

"I'm fine. Anyway I have to go. You take care next time. I love you, bye." She chuckled

"okay I love you too... bye." she said then drop the call.

She sighed before she decided to go inside the mall. Suddenly she remembered the man who rescued her awhile ago. Same as height as Michael Angelo. How come she didn't recognize him? Maybe because that man is a good fighter. But if he really is that Agent, is his family knew about this? Maybe she'll wait to tell him the truth about his identity. For now, she will just support him from afar. Time will come that he will say the truth and the reason why he kept it to her. She sighed heavily, and shrugged the thoughts off.

"I almost got caught." Michael Angel mumbled as he head back to the restaurant where Yohan is.
