Chapter 22 - Confession (1/2)

Howard: ”I am organizing a little party at my house today; I you guys will attend it. It would be my pŀėȧsurė.”

Everyone agreed. Steve went away with the shield. Maybe he has gone to show them to his buddies. I don't know. Colonel took his leave with Howard. I was left with Peggy.

Kyle: ”Are you free Peggy, I mean right now.”

Peggy: ”Yes, I am free.”

Kyle: ”Let's go grab a coffee then.”

She went with me. I fetched two coffees and passed her one.

Kyle: ”Are you all right, Peggy? I mean you are bit down since you came after meeting with Steve that day. You can talk about it, if you want.”

Peggy: ”Nah its fine, Kyle. Don't worry about it. It's just the stress from the job.”

Kyle: ”Whatever, you say. Just don't do something stupid, Okay. Should I pick you up tonight?”

Peggy: ”Hmm.”

I went away from her. She needs some time alone. She is quite confused right now. I went to do some work in the SSR unit.

{During Night}

I was in my car. Obviously provided by army. I went to fetch Peggy. She was again wearing with a red dress but it was different than before. I was kind of wide from the top and skin tight near the waist. It was made for emphasizing the curves that all and Peggy was killing it. I was in a formal suit which was quite famous now a days. She came and sat beside me.

Kyle: ”I don't know what to say, but you look gorgeous.”

Peggy: ”Thank you Kyle, you look handsome too.”

This time she was confident with her words. I started the car and went to Howard's house. Man, it was big. I mean really big. I parked the car and gave my hand to Peggy. She held it and we started walking. We met Stark who was welcoming guests. He grinned watching me and Peggy. I met will Colonel and others. Steve also came but he was not alone. He came with the receptionist. I saw Peggy but she didn't give any expression as she didn't know him. I went to Steve. Obviously leaving Peggy with Stark.

Kyle: ”Oh, Captain you got company. Good”

Steve: ”How are you major, meet Lorraine, My girlfriend.”

Kyle: ”Oh, Hello Ms. Lorraine. Mind if I take Steve with me for a moment.”

I took Steve to a corner. Steve knew what I will ask so he told me without even asking.

Steve: ”I know what you going to ask. Yeah, we broke up. We weren't a thing from the start. Don't ask any more than that.”

Kyle: ”Oh, Okay, Enjoy. You are leaving tomorrow, so have fun tonight.”

We chuckled; it was not like we resented each other.

I then went to meet Stark. Today I will copy his skills. I have already set the condition for copy.

Howard: ”Hey Colonel, come here. I have something to ask of you.”

Kyle: ”What is it about, Stark?”

Howard: ”Nothing its related to business. I just want to ask you if you will work with me on producing infinite energy. I mean you know a lot about energy field. Aren't I right?”

Kyle: ”Mr. Stark you know somethings which you should not, you know. I guess you have read my file then. So, was its Phillips you gave you my file?”

Howard: ”No, I just stumbled across it, when I was looking for some reports. So, what do you say?”

Kyle: ”What will I gain, if I help you?”

Howard: ”How about I make you a shareholder in my company.”

Peggy: ”I think I should go from here.”

Kyle: ”No, Peggy you will sit here with me. I want you as a witness of what this man says. If he knows anything which can be used against me, I have to dispose of him”

Peggy: ”O…Okay”

The environment was just shuddering. Howard and Peggy both were suffocating in the aura I was emitting.

Howard: ”C…Colonel I know nothing else except you being in field of energy”

Kyle: ”I should be ready, shouldn't I, Mr. Stark?”
