EPISODE 127
*3 YEARS LATER, COUNTRY B*
Media across the globe was sent into a frenzy as they all gathered in country B, about to witness one of the historical days that would be marked in the golden page of the country’s history.
The country was declared on holiday, which was the best decision watching the amount of traffic that was mounting in the country and was still increasing.
CEOs of top ranking companies, high end brand ambassadors, celebrities, and every big name that one could come up with were gathered in the hall, a major feat in itself.
And of course no ordinary person was capable of bringing all these big names under one roof, except MARKUS!
Everyone was about to witness the biggest moment, the wedding of the century as their power couple was finally holding an official wedding ceremony on the account of their 5th marriage anniversary.
“You look like some angel!” Rose said while looking at Kizy in the white gown, looking exactly what Rose had mentioned.
A beauty that could bring destruction to nations!
“Stop exaggerating, first sister.” Kizy replied with a smile, giving one satisfactory glance towards her overall look through the mirror.
A white mermaid gown that swept the floor, studded in diamonds that looked like stars themselves hugged her body as a few loose curly strands accentuated her pretty face. A minimal makeup was applied as Kizy needed no such thing to highlight her beauty. Her hair was done in a bun with few strands let loose.
And adding the final step was that diamond studded veil, completing the look on a whole different level.
“You look dazzling!” Suddenly Markus’s voice was heard from behind.
“You are not supposed to enter this room brother!” Nicole said while instantly moving towards the door, hoping she would manage to stop the masculine wall packed in black tuxedo, which screamed nothing but Handsome!
“As if you can stop.” A cool voice sounded from behind Markus, which belonged to none other than Victor.
“You.. Why are you supporting him! Shouldn’t you be on Kizy’s side?” Nicole said with a blush as she felt Victor’s burning gaze on herself.
Kizy was having a total of four bridesmaids, all clad in purple gowns, each looking beautiful in their own way.
Noticing that Nicole was being overpowered, the other bridesmaid similarly made there way to the door, only to be surprised by the backup Markus had brought.
Rose, Nicole, Nina and Ruth all stood in front of the door, only to watch Markus bring his ace card, and every plan to stop the men was thrown out of the window.
“Mommy!” Kyson, a baby voiced miniature version of Markus peeked from the doorway and how could the ladies not grant his wish.
They immediately gave way to him, who walked with grace even at the age of two years only.
Wearing a suit similar to his father with hairs neatly gelled, he actually looked like a mini Markus, bundled up with a lot more cuteness of course.
“You look beautiful, mommy.” He complimented curtly, as a small smile, barely noticeable, formed on his face.
“Thank you sweetheart!” Kizy said while bending down to his height, straightening his bowtie without caring about the billion dollar dress that she was wearing, before giving him a kiss on cheeks, making him go tomato red, though he maintained a stoic face, just like his father.
“Stop ruining mommy’s dress idiot!” Another baby voice was heard, as Myra entered running in her white frock.
She didn’t even bother slowing down as she directly went crashing onto Kyson, making him lose his balance but he still managed to catch his baby sister from falling head on, and injure herself as always.
“Look ahead.” He said in a gruff voice, already tired of her running around all day and creating trouble wherever she went.
“Stop teaching me.” She mimicked irritation while she pushed him away from Kizy.
“Mommy, you look pwetty!!” Myra said as her big doe eyes glittered in awe.
“Thank you cutiepie, but you should not push your brother like that.” Kizy said in a gentle voice, knowing though Kyson behaved like an older brother, but he was the same age as Myra.
“He was in my way, and was ruining your dress by making you bend.” Myra complained, though her voice had lowered than what it was a few seconds ago.
“Where was my princess all this time? You look pretty!” Markus said while lifting Myra up and placing her on his shoulders, making her sit comfortably.
Who would have imagined that the always stoic faced, hard headed Markus would become so soft in front of his dear daughter. He couldn’t bear even a single tear down her face, one of the reasons why she was becoming a little spoiled.
But Kizy made sure to teach her from time to time about what was right and what was wrong, no matter if that made her cry. She didn’t want to spoil her children from this young age.
Though Kyson and Myra were twins, with Kyson three minutes older than Myra, the siblings were poles opposite.
“Thank you daddy! I went with grandpa. He bought us candies. Here.” She said while passing one of the candies in her hand to Kyson, forgetting everything that happened seconds ago.
Kyson just nodded as his father helped in passing the candy.
Kizy stood up and straightened her dress, looking with affection at Kyson, and then the father daughter duo in front of her.
“Brother stop looking at Nina like that, you have enough time after the wedding ceremony for the same.” Ruth said as she looked at her brother who looked head over heels for Nina.
Joel instantly coughed as his ears reddened.
“You and your uncontrolled mouth should be sent back to the torture room.” Joel said as others laughed at the siblings.
Joel was still shy as ever, and Ruth never left a chance to tease him.
“Nina, look at him. How can he say that to me?” Ruth instantly turned towards Nina, her shield nowadays.
“Stop scolding her Joel.” She said in a calm voice before patting Ruth on the back, like someone would do to a child.
“You look stunning.” Jason slowly came beside Rose and spoke in a low voice.
“We heard that, second sister!” Harry said from behind, making Rose blush.
Three years ago, a lot of things changed. Everyone who survived the battle understood how precious this life was. They didn’t want to give up on opportunities they still had.
*3 YEARS AGO*
Once they all had safely returned to country B, Jason had given up on the assasination job.
Kizy was already no longer on the team, and he knew that Victor would do the same once he was well.
Victor, who was found unconscious near the seashore, was in coma for the past one month and everyone was hoping for his best recovery.
Jason would visit him everyday but won’t stay for long, feeling bad for Victor as well as Nicole who literally lived in the hospital now, staying along with Victor.
Nicole’s wound had healed well after a week, but she hadn’t stepped out of the hospital since she entered right back after returning from the Imperial nation.
Sia had treated her, and the doubt they had that Nicole might not conceive a child was no longer the problem. She was as healthy as she could be.
But she had turned less bubbly, less of herself as she stayed with Victor all the time. Doctors had given them a time limit of three months. If Victor was to stay in coma after that, his chances of recovery were less.
She looked pale and weaker, but she still continued, knowing she needed to stay strong, not for her but for Victor.
“Get up quickly! You have to meet my parents after this. I think we will need a lot of preparations to convince them. So better you start preparing ahead-” Nicole said as a tear rolled down her face.
Kizy would also drop by every two or three days, but her bump had started becoming visible and the overprotective husband tagging along with her only made it more difficult.
Hence everyone suggested Kizy to stay home and rest as Markus won’t even allow her to the office.
Instead Markus tried to come home early everyday, and brought some of his documents home so that Kizy could work on them, knowing staying home without doing much would bore her to death.
But thankfully Kizy had started a lot of things for her and the baby like yoga, meditation, reading books, listening to good music etc and thus kept herself busier.
Today, Jason as usual had gone to visit Victor.
“How is he doing?” He asked Nicole, who had somehow become friends over the past month.
“Great as always. Today we read three chapters of his favourite book together.” She said with a smile.
“Good.” Jason said, feeling happy for Victor who had found such a loyal partner for himself.
“Nicole, I had a favour to ask.” Jason said.
“You don’t have to be so formal with me Jason. Just tell me and I ‘ll do it.” Nicole said.
“I wanted to have some private talk with Victor. Is it okay if I stay with him for sometime? I have also brought Diamond and Markus with me. They are waiting outside. Maybe you can chat with them till-” Jason was still speaking when Nicole cut him off.
“That’s completely fine Jason. Go on and chat, I will be waiting outside. Anyways I needed a cup of coffee, maybe I can order my brother around to bring some more snacks along with that.” Nicole said, trying to be as normal as possible.
“Sure.” Jason gave her a small smile, before eventually sitting beside Victor as Nicole exited.
“Hi man! Seems like you are enjoying your life. Having a girlfriend to accompany you all time and visitors. Good goin… going.” A tear rolled down his face, no more able to keep up the pretence.
“Wake up quickly now. You don’t know how I face myself in the mirror every morning, blaming myself for not being able to be by your side and save you from the blast… back then.” Jason said and paused, trying to bring his emotions back to normal before he could speak wh@ťěver he was supposed to after this.
“I am terminating your contract along with Rose and Harry. From today onwards, the Black Command would be history. I no longer want to put all your lives at risk.” Jason said.
“I am here to inform you of my plans first. Because you were there for me, always. And I can not have a new beginning without telling you.” Jason paused.
“I have decided to start up a security company. The only thing I have done all my life is taking missions and putting my life at risk. Maybe I can use it in some different form now.
I am also going to offer the men working under us to join the company. I don’t have a solid plan so I will be taking Markus’s help for the same. But I want you to be by my side when I launch this new project. Get well soon, Victor.” Jason said, pushing back the lump that was forming in his throat before he left the VIP room.
Kizy didn’t say anything about Jason’s red eyes, though she felt bad for him. She could see that Jason had suddenly lost his pillar and must be feeling lonely deep down.
Jason nodded at Nicole who was having small talks with Kizy and Markus. The couple visited Victor before leaving with Jason who was also living at their house.
“Diamond, Markus. I would like to discuss something with you both.” Jason said once they returned from hospital.
“What is it?” Kizy asked.
“I plan to end the Black Command.” Jason said.
“But Jason we-” Kizy tried to protest but Jason cut her off.
“I have already terminated your contract and I will do so with the rest of the members soon. I can not ask them to risk their lives till their deaths, Diamond. They are all young and have an entire life ahead. If they think carefully, they can actually start a new life which would be much more normal than the ones they have been living till now.” Jason finished.
“Then what do you intend to do?” Kizy asked again, feeling a little heavy.
