"I need your help." Sting said.
"The almighty Sting needs help from me? For what exactly." Red asked.
"I don't know why, but I feel I can trust you with this truth." Sting said.
"Well? Spill it out." Red said.
"I... I... I think... I'm in love..." Sting finally said.
"What?! With who? How did it happen?" Red asked in amazement.
"Well... I don't know how but I'm in love." Sting replied.
"Wow. That is one shocking news." Red said and Sting frowns at him.
"Will you help me or not?!" Sting yelled.
"Okay okay. Just calm down." Red replied.
Sting takes a deep breath and sits down on the chair closest to him.
"I'll help you out. Just tell me, who is the lady?" Red asked.
Sting hesitates to tell Red.
"You need my help so you have to tell me who it is." Red added.
"Sofia." Sting replied.
Red's mouth fell open.
"Wait... What?!" Red asked.
Sting narrated to Red all what happened the day before yesterday in Mr Biggio's mansion, between himself and Sofia.
Sting also tells Red about yesterday's visit to Sofia's house.
"This is great." Red said.
"What do I do now?" Sting asked.
"Nothing." Red replied.
"Nothing?" Sting asked surprised.
"Yes. If you two are meant to be it will happen on it's own. Love is not something you plan to do on your own. That is, when it comes to falling for someone." Red replied.
"Okay. So I'll be on my way now." Sting said.
"Okay." Red replied.
Sting opens the door to leave but then turns back and looks at Red.
"You're really a good person Red. I just wish I could turn back the hands of time. I'm sorry I caused the problem between you and Sarah." Sting said and turns to leave.
"It's nothing Sting. Don't blame yourself." Red replied with a smile.
Sting leaves.
"She really changed him. I just know it that the two of them will be together." Red said.
Later in the evening...
At Mr Biggio's mansion...
"We are finally done for today. I'm so exhausted." Sarah said.
"Let's go and tell Grace we are done for today. I want to go home before it gets too dark to see." Sofia said.
"Let's go." Sarah replied.
Sofia and Sarah informs Grace, the cook, that they are done and would like to go home. Grace permits them after inspecting the mansion.
On their way home...
"Isn't that Sting over their?" Sarah said.
"Huh? Where? Where is he?" Sofia said looking about.
"Gotcha." Sarah said.
"That's not funny!" Sofia said.
"Just face it sis. You're in love." Sarah said.
"No I'm not" Sofia replied.
"Well, there he is. Tell him that." Sarah said.
"Well I'm not falling for that!" Sofia replied.
"Falling for what?" Sofia heard Sting ask.
Sofia's body stiffens.
"What are you doing here?" Sofia asked.
"I was on my way to see you." Sting replied.
Sofia blushes unknowingly.
"Oops!" Sarah said and pushes Sofia to Sting.
Sting catches her again as she landed on his body but this time.
Sting's and Sofia's lips merge.
Sting's and Sofia's eyes widened but in just a few seconds they close their eyes and continue.
Sarah stands there with her mouth wide open.
It wasn't really what Sarah had expected.
Sarah coughs and Sting and Sofia separate from each other immediately.
Sofia is as red as ever. She didn't know what to do or say next. Sofia walked away avoiding eye or even face contact with Sting.
Sting actually had mixed feelings at this moment and did not know if Sofia likes him too or not.
"Wow... Wow wow wow." Sarah said.
That is the only thing that could come out of Sarah's mouth at that moment.
Sarah runs and meets Sofia and they continue walking. Sarah and Sofia didn't say anything to each other till they reached home.
The next day...
Sarah decides to pretend nothing happened and just tells Sofia that she has somewhere to go and will meet Sofia later in the mansion. Sofia agrees and heads to the mansion on her own.
Sarah on the other hand started walking in the opposite direction. Sarah has a picture in her hand and seems to be looking for something. Sarah finally reaches her destination and stops at the door of a small house.
Red had sent his house address to her and said he wants to make amendment with her but he told her to come the next day and he is busy today.
Sarah misses Red excessively so she couldn't wait till the next day and decides to surprise him.
She raises her hand to knock but then hears voices from within. Along with the voices she hears sounds of guns cracking.
"What could be going on in there? I thought this is Red's house." Sarah thought.
"I'll peep through the window and see." Sarah added.
She moves to the window and peeps in. Sarah felt her breath seize.
"Where did they get guns from?" Sarah whispered.
She listens to their conversation...
"We have to make this quick. And make sure the man doesn't survive." Sting said.
"Yes. I agree." Red replied.
"Has Big boss sent the location of our target?" Sting asked.
Phone beeps...
"Yeah. He just did." Red replied.
Sarah backs away from the window. She accidentally trips on something which makes a loud noise.
"Who is there!?" Sting yelled.
"Show yourself." Red added.
Sarah runs as fast as she can and is able to escape.
Sarah stands at a corner and starts to weep.
"I fell in love with a murder, a killer! And unfortunately, so did my sister... " Sarah said in tears.
Sarah gathers herself together, wipe away her tears and goes to work which she had almost forgotten.
At Mr Biggio's mansion...
"How come your sister isn't here yet. I hope she isn't trying to avoid working today." Grace asked.
"No. She will be here soon. She told me she would come." Sofia replied.
"It better be." Grace said.
