5 Chapter. Married couple
Kate was able to locate her target and she successfully retrieved the documents in the vault, as she was getting ready to exit she heard someone is walking to direction.
She quickly hide behind one of the curtains. The shadow walks towards the painting on the wall and tap it. He raise the painting and open the vault only to find it empty. "Damn!" he cursed. He search the room for anything that he can make use of. he open the drawers and found something and took it, as he retreated to where he came from, he notice the unusual pattern on the curtain as the moonlight cast a shadow on the window. a silhouette of a person, to be precise it is a woman basing on the curves that its shadow is showing.
He quickly took his knife and abruptly pull the curtain sending Kate hurling towards him. It was a good thing that she was able to control her fall before his knife hit her.
She immediately retaliated by kicking the hand holding the knife sending it flying from his hand.
He turn and send her a blow which she was able to evade .
"Is anyone there?". one of the guards heard the noise coming from the room and came to check. They both stopped and kept quiet. Just as the gust of wind shook the window that Kate left open.
Through the darkness the guard open the door to inspect. He saw nothing , having a very fertile imagination it gave him goosebumps. His voice trembles when he speak again.
" Is anybody here?"
Douglas was controlling the call of nature to fart it was released very slowly and sounded like a sigh.
The guard heard it thinking it was a ghost of the mayor returning to his domain, re run in panic away from the room. Kate and Douglas rolled in laughter keeping the sound of their voices to a minimum. They were still laughing when they make their escape through the window into the darkness of trees surrounding the backyard of the house it was a good thing the moon was covered by dark clouds easing their movements under the cover of darkness .
When they reached a safe distance , they start their bickering.
"Give it to me!" Doug said.
"What! am I loosing my mind , I work hard for it to just hand it to you as easy as that?"
"Kate do you know that your withholding evidence, and you can be charge by that? Besides what can that be of used to you? Are you going to publish it ?" Doug was getting pissed off.
"You don't have to lecture me of that. I know, we were classmates in jurisprudence. besides I got higher grades than you, Mr know it all."
"Ha...h that's because you blackmailed the professor when you caught him making out with professor of Physical Education."
"Douglas Torres, don't you go accusing me, if I know , you went on running around at her beck and call for Miss Psychology to passed her subject."
"That was because she caught your best friend cheating with my test paper thinking I let her copy my answers." he defended himself their battle of words continued on and on.
"I think you should stop your bickering before we will be discovered." Douglas's partner intervene.
They both starred at him and kept quiet.
"OK , let's discuss this in my place." Doug suggested.
"Your place? ha..h. what's that make out of me ? What if you trick me? I don't trust you, Mr Genius." she refused.
"Alright to my place, please stop fighting! You sound like married couple." Dennis once more kept them quiet.
"Okay! they both agreed.
