and Samia sat on the trolley, wrapped around each other, while their babbling babies sat in their double stroller, in front of them. They were on their way to complete a part of their mission, all while enjoying the joys that New Orleans brung.
Samia sat with her legs crossed, lying on top of Sahir's. Her left arm wrapped around his midriff, as her right arm lied entangled with his that was wrapped around her waist. Her head lied on his shoulder, but her eyes remained on his face, studying the man that she called hers.
"You've been staring at me for a while." Sahir said without taking his eyes off of Seiji and Sayid.
Samia shrugged her shoulders, replying, "I can stare at my man whenever I want."
Samia watched Sahir's dimples begin to deepen as a smile broke out on his face. Watching him turn his head to look at her, her eyes instantly went to his lips, which his tongue swept over before disappearing back into his mouth.
"You right," Sahir started, leaning in closer to her. "You're allowed to look at me all you want."
Samia could feel herself leaning in closer, ready for Sahir's succulent lips to attach themselves onto hers. Right when his lips were about to press against hers, a voice interrupted their moment.
"What a surprise ta' see you guys here?" Lieutenant Blue said as he walked up to the couple that was obviously having a moment.
Salina rolled her eyes, leaning her head back down onto Sahir's shoulder.
"I don't think it was much of a coincidence." She muttered, moving her gaze onto her children.
Sahir smirked to himself, before placing a chaste kiss onto her forehead. Bringing his head back up, he looked up at the lieutenant and detective that stood in front of them, holding onto the poles.

"What a displeasure it is to see you guys here." Sahir said looking into both Lieutenant Blue and Detective Henderson's eyes. "I see you guys have been assigned to follow us."
Lieutenant Blue let out a huff, before sitting down in the chair across from the Wests'. Detective Henderson followed suit, quickly after.
"Who says we're followin' you?" Lieutenant Blue asked with an eyebrow raised and a smirk.
"Oh I get it." Samia said with a slightly raised tone. "You guys have a day off and your spending it together. Bestie goals."
Sahir let out a snicker seeing the amusement on Lieutenant Blue's face leave.
"No, baby. They 're just wasting tax payers money." Sahir said making Samia nod her head in agreeance.
Detective Henderson let out a laugh, only stopping when he noticed Lieutenant Blue's face that held no amusement.
"We actually decided that we needed ta' keep our eyes on the two CIA agents that are in our town fa' some reason." Lieutenant Blue let out causing Samia and Sahir to laugh.
"Will you get off that already, you silly goose." Sahir said waving off Lieutenant Blue who stared at him like he was stupid.
"I say you're workin' fa' the CIA." Lieutenant Blue said, sure of his words.
Sahir nodded his head, with a smile on his face.
"Well you continue to say it." Sahir said causing Samia to give the two officers a matching smile.

The Wests', Lieutenant Blue, and Detective Henderson walked through the lively cemetery. As a family walked past them to go to the gravesite of their loved one, certain family members played celebratory music on their instruments, celebrating the life of the one they lost.
"So what are you guys doin' here?" Lieutenant Blue said, only pausing when he realized his words came out wrong. "I mean what are you guys doing at this cemetery?"

The Wests' continued to walk, ignoring the lieutenant's questions, which he decided to keep on asking.
"Is this a company visit fa' the CIA?" He asked causing Sahir to halt the movement of the twin's stroller and his footsteps.
"It was funny when you mentioned it earlier, but could you stop now? That jokes getting old, you need some new material." Sahir began to push the twins, heading to where he needed to be. "Stick with being a lieutenant because comedy is not for you."
Both Samia and Detective Henderson let out a chuckle, but Detective Henderson quickly covered his slip up with a cough.
"I am just a regular guy with a beautiful wife and two handsome sons, who decided to vacation in New Orleans. Part of our vacationing is learning about New Orleans culture, hence why we're about to watch a funeral take place." Sahir said making his way over to a family tomb with the name, "Evans" across the top.
Locking the twin's stroller, Sahir waited for Samia to take his place in standing behind it, before sitting on the bench to the side of it.
"I don't believe any words that come out of your mouth. I want ta' know why you decided to come here?" Lieutenant Blue asked placing his hand on the door of the tomb.
Sensing that something was about to happen that she didn't want the boys to see, Samia picked up the locked stroller, turning it to face the other way.
Lieutenant Blue stood, pressing too much of his weight onto the family tomb, the door to it began to slide open. Once the door opened, it showcased the frightened eyed, dead body of Austin Evens. Without having the door to hold his dead body upright, he fell directly on top of Lieutenant Blue.
"Oh my gosh!" Lieutenant Blue screamed, pushing Austin Evan's dead body onto the ground, only to trip himself, making him fall down onto the ground too.
Once his back hit the grass harshly, he let out an even louder scream seeing the man's dead eyes looking into his. Jumping up quickly, he began to pace, never letting his eyes land on the deceased body.
Detective Henderson's eyes remained wide with horror as his eyes shifted onto the dead body that lied on the ground and Lieutenant Blue's jumpy form that was making a lot of noise.
Sahir looked at his silver Rolex that lied on his left wrist, examine the time that it showed.
"I guess he got here early." He said with a simple shrug of his shoulders.

Will Kiriai win the fight that decides her future? An impossible deadline, a persuasive mentor, and her own family all stand in Kiriai’s way.

Author note: I just discovered the Royal Road community and decided to jump in and participate. I posted Combat Origin, Book 1 during Nov and Dec of 2019 (before moving it to Amazon), followed by the short story prequel that gave backstory on two of the main characters. (non-Gamelit - because the gaming AI hasn't been found yet) Now, Book 5 has been finished and posted on Amazon, which allows me to leave a 10% sample here. The books are all free to read, If you have Kindle Unlimited. Please comment, ask questions, offer suggestions or just say hi.
