Chapter 227 I Am Officer Astria 1 (1/2)

”And so, after that introductory trailer, the episode started off with a great fighting scene. The drug lord was able to escape using a trap door from his office, making Astria curse out loud. And seconds after, she found herself being surrounded inside the office by about twenty or more people. She wanted to run away but she knew she had no choice but to fight back in order to clear an escape route.”

”And so, quickly grabbing the two hidden guns in her thighs, one after another, she shot the enemies from the frontlines without missing a single bullet. After the first shot, some quickly dashed towards her to stop her. And when they drew near, she began to fight them head-on while keeping one hand constantly firing on the enemies by the distance. Man, it was such a great episode.”

Inna breathed out her amazement as she recalled it.

”It was like, just barely a minute of... Bang! Bang! Whoosh! Hi-yah! Then, Bam! Everyone was dead!”

Inna tried imitating the moves as she felt her inner kid resurface whenever she remembered the show. Raghnall could only watch in bewilderment at her sudden actions.

”Then, after all the fighting, there was suddenly a chuckle and when Astria looked up, it was her partner, Officer Kyril who was laughing at her. She was like, 'why are you laughing?' And he was like, 'I thought you were only going to make an escape route but it seems like the one who needed to escape was them.'”

Inna giggled as she recalled the handsome actor who played Officer Kyril. He was her first crush, for sure. But at the same time, she rooted for him and Astria not only as a couple in the show but also in real life.

Seeing Inna giggling away as she continued to talk more and more about her favorite show, Raghnall felt a weight off his shoulder as he finally fully calmed down. He really felt worried for her earlier but seeing how she was now, giggling and blushing at some guy named 'Officer Kyril' despite his displeasure, he's greatly relieved that she's able to still smile and laugh as bright as before.

After a few minutes, Inna realized that she was babbling away so she blushed furiously before apologizing.

”Uh-uhm. I… As you can see, that was my favorite show. Ha-ha…”

When she turned around to check if Raghnall was bored with all her stories, she quickly turned back when she saw the look Raghnall was giving her. It was the look of fondness, relief, and amusement rolled into a gleeful expression.

Why the fuck was he smiling at her like that?!

The weirdo...

She tried to reign in her embarrassment and control the redness of her cheeks by coughing awkwardly. But when she tried to move her hand to cover her coughs, she noticed it was held by his hand. And so, she used her other hand instead since she didn't want to awkwardly remove it. After all, he might get the wrong idea.

Inna bit her lip as a realization suddenly crossed her.

But then again, continuing would make him get the wrong idea as well…

Bah, whatever! It's just his way of comfort! There's no malice at all!

Besides, she really shouldn't be so distracted. She needed to continue the other end of her story. After all, she got far too distracted with the tv show earlier so she really should finish it up or else they'll be there until sunrise.

”S-so… back to the story…”
