chapter 46
Mrs Smith paced around and felt restless, she doesn't know what to believe. Could it be that Mr Mc Millan is saying the truth? But then, how did Steff Smith know about their mission? Something is wrong somewhere.
Sophia and the other assassinators looked with sad eyes as the doctor cut Xena's arm to remove the bullet. The doctor had told them to go outside and wait, but they stood at the doorway watching like security dogs.
Mrs Smith looked at the faces of her Special Assassinators and the trainees and thought of who the spy amongst them would be. If she asks them, they will deny. She will get to the root of this matter on her own observant way.
"Let us go out and give the doctor space to do his work. That's the best we can do for Xena" she ordered and they need not be told again.
They dispatched. Mrs Smith went to check up on Justin. "Mom, what happened out there?" He asked immediately he saw her.
"Son, there's no cause for panic, one of the girls was shot in the arm, but the doctor promised that she WI be alright" She replied.
"Oh, thank God. Anyway, I was meaning to ask you why you created such a dangerous organization in the first place, it is not in your power to fight crime, that is supposedly the work of the cops, soldiers and attorneys. Let the law do their job" Justin said worriedly.
"Dear son, you will not understand. There are so many things happening under your nose that you are yet to know, and even if you know, you may not understand" Mrs Smith answered.
"You know better, but I would love to beg you to put Sophia out of all that, I don't want her to go on any other mission with the other girls, I can't bear to lose her or see her hurt" Justin requested.
"That is a hard task, baby. Sophia has a right of her own, she is the one to decide if she wants to stay behind or go. Anyway, for now, I don't trust her. She is our newest member and I trusted her enough to give her ranks on merit. But today's mission almost failed and that is because there is a spy amongst us, so I don't know who to trust" Mrs Smith said thoughtfully.
"I don't think she��" Justin was at the verge of defending her before he remembered the sex video.
Why does he trust her? Could it be that he is only blinded by infatuation? What if she is really a spy? It can be possible, but he doesn't even know why he can't reason with his mother.
"Well, you have to investigate to find out who the bad egg is, don't point fingers yet" He said slowly.
"I'm not a fool, son. I will make sure to find out who it is, I won't give him or her chance to ruin another mission or this organization" she indicated.
"Better. Less I forget, I want to see who my father is and spend some days at the house I lived before I got involved in the accident. Mom, you can't say no, the doctor said it himself that my chances of recovering my memory is lesser if I stay in an unfamiliar environment surrounded by unfamiliar faces" Justin demanded.
"That won't be possible, Justin. I can't allow you go out there to live with that man again! Mention anything you want, I can do it for you, I promise, but going to even say hello to Steffen, I won't!" Mrs Smith shook her head.
"But why? Is he such a dreadful fellow? If that is the case, how come you two ended up having me if you so despise him? Mother, what is going on?" Justin asked curiously, he was awed by his mother's declarance.
"My decision stands and that is final! You sit your ass down and be a good boy, excuse me" Mrs Smith snapped and left him gaping at her retreating figure.
"How will I recall who I am? I don't even know if she is telling me the truth" he sighed and sank into a chair.

Molly meandered to the principal's office, she looked very tired, dirty and wet from all the cleaning she had to do alone. She can't believe her friends relaxed comfortably in class to study deserting her at the very time she needed them.
She knew before now that they have already prepared loads of excuses to give to her about why it was not possible for them to come. Does it matter now?
She was about knocking on the door when she heard hushed voices, and funny noises. She peeped through the keyhole to see what was going on in the new principal's office and got the shock of her life.
Her eyes almost plucked out of its sockets over what she saw, how can such a thing be possible? When did this school start rearing unruly students? Her tiny brain wondered.
Molly looked around to see if there's anyone around, maybe somewhere watching her and would think she wants to steal from the principal's office, when she saw no fly around, she took another look to make sure she saw right.
Rebecca was half naked, her skirt pulled up to reveal her thighs and ass too if not that she is seated on the principal's desk. Her shirt hung on her left hand as she wound her hands around the principal's neck.
Her bra hung loosely over the other hand, she was simply naked, just that her back is to her, so she wasn't able to see her breasts or vagina, but she saw that the principal's finger was down there, maybe fingering her and his mouth took turns to suck her breasts.
Molly moved away from the office door and grasped air into her lungs, she clutched her heart and fought not to faint, she was dazzled.
