Since we returned from the Styles' mansion a few days ago, the girls have been bugging me with questions. Already in the car they could not stop throwing them at me at once. Of course I couldn't tell them the whole truth, otherwise they would know that I found Falling weeks ago without reporting it. I would be caught lying and would be fucking screwed.

I don't know if they would even report my rule violation, but I can't take that risk under any circumstances. My boss would fire me immediately and then I would have nothing. This job is what makes me to the person I am today and without it I'm nothing.

I'm the best at finding and eliminating bad people. So what else could I do? Get a normal job? No.
Apart from the fact that I could do nothing with my life, the CIA would not let me go just like that. I would be a traitor and that would be punished. I wouldn't get off that easy.

My four partners only know that they should help me to get something important, which went wrong in the end as they have experienced themselves. I haven't said a word about the blackmail, the flash drives or Harry in general. It's better if they never find out about all this.

The problem now is that they are quite angry with me. They already know how secretive I am and that I often keep things to myself, but now that it has involved them they want all the information that I can't give them.

At first they were hoping that I would tell them the truth as soon as we were safe, but they realized pretty quickly that I didn't do that. Emily and Claire didn't really say much about it. They were still too shocked anyway and now that several days have passed they just act like nothing ever happened.

Layla and Piper are quite different. After we had a heated discussion, they started to completely ignore me. When we saw each other at the base afterwards, they left me completely cold. I have to admit that I am more upset than I first thought I would be. I know we are kind of friends but I still can't tell them the truth about Falling.

I hate that this big thing is standing between us. But I can't change it. With four people who know everything, the chance of the truth coming out increases. It's too risky. For them and for me.

Anyway, I haven't heard from Style in days. Not that I've ever heard from him before, but since my dear father hasn't come and yelled at me yet, because a certain Harry Styles died from his wounds, I'm assuming the prick is still alive. The bastard deserves to die, but I want him to die in front of me and not from shitty injuries that got infected or some bullshit like that.
