Love Worth Fighting For

235 a Tattoo

Even though he was sitting in his office, Robin could hear the conversation of his three subordinates who were nervous because Zwetta and Andres didn’t come back to the office even though they had finished their work in Los Angeles two days ago, as the person who gave Robin’s task, of course he would continue to monitor the movements of Andres and Zwetta through the tools in his study. That’s why Robin wasn’t nervous at all like the other three of his men at this time.

Because he did not want to make his three men continue to be nervous, Robin finally decided to leave his study. Carrying a cup of his favorite coffee, Robin walked to the workplace of the doctor Giana who was currently being disturbed by Beatrice and Veronika who had just controlled the scars from their last mission in Russia.

“Am I bothering you?”

Robin’s voice, which was so distinctive, suddenly made the three women of different ages turn their heads towards the door, the three of them answered simultaneously the question that had just escaped from Robin’s lips.

“How are your wounds? Do you still need special treatment after this?” Robin asked again as he sat down across from doctor Giana who had just examined Beatrice’s legs and Veronika’s arms.

“It’s healed, boss. At present the wound is not even visible anymore,” Beatrice answered proudly. “Doctor Gee is really great.”

“Really? Thank goodness for that,” said Robin quietly. “And I hope this wound will be the last wound you will have.”

The smiles on Beatrice and Veronika’s faces disappeared instantly, they both already knew where the big boss was talking who was staring at them without blinking.

“I know it’s not easy to carry out a mission, I also know that gunfire when carrying out a mission can definitely happen. However, I always emphasize to you guys to try to minimize the injury as small as possible. The wounds you get are the same as failure for me,” said Robin seriously.

.....

Beatrice and Veronika immediately lowered their heads simultaneously.

“I’m not angry at you, I’m really not angry at all. I’m just sad if I have to see you get injured, especially if the wound leaves a scar that will disappear in a long time. So I beg you to increase your concentration more when on duty,” added Robin again. “I don’t want what happened to Zwetta to happen to any of you. You understand, don’t you?”

“Got it, boss.” Beatrice and Veronika answered simultaneously without lifting their faces.

Seeing that Robin smiled a little. “Zwetta and Andres have arrived in New York.”

“WHAT?!!”

As if forgetting what had just happened, Beatrice and Veronika shrieked at the same time.

“Are you serious, boss?” asked Beatrice again.

Robin nodded slowly. “They got into New York City sixty minutes ago, maybe in less than ten they will...”

“I’m home!”

Zwetta’s words suddenly made Robin stop his words, Beatrice and Veronika who were sitting well immediately ran towards Zwetta who had just entered through a secret door that was directly connected to doctor Giana’s office.

Not knowing if Zwetta was hurt, Beatrice and Veronika hugged her tightly. One of their habits when they have just completed a mission is to hug each other to release longing and an expression of gratitude for successfully completing the mission.

“Hey... be careful, Zwetta’s sleeves are still new,” Andres said loudly from behind.

Andres’ words not only surprised Beatrice and Veronika, doctors Giana and Robin who were sitting quietly were also surprised to hear Andres’ words, who couldn’t keep the secret at all. In fact, an hour ago, when they entered New York City, Zwetta had asked Andres to keep her wound a secret from everyone, especially Robin, which would have immediately gone too far.

“What stitches?” shrieked Robin loudly.

Beatrice and Veronika who had removed their arms from Zwetta’s body immediately kept their distance as far as possible, their intention to ask Zwetta in more detail was stopped by the loud scream of the big boss.

Zwetta, who had intended to keep her wound a secret from Robin, could only take a deep breath, Zwetta silently cursed the stupidity of Andres who had let out a word. Andres, who realized his mistake, immediately backed away, keeping as far as possible from Zwetta who was currently being approached by an angry looking Robin.

“A wound, why did you get hurt? Why didn’t you tell me about this matter two days ago, Zee?” asked Robin coldly as soon as he stopped right in front of Zwetta who looked very calm, unlike Beatrice and Veronika who would immediately freak out when the boss found out they were hurt, Zwetta actually looked so calm. High flying hours really can not be doubted.

Instead of answering Robin’s question, Zwetta slowly opened the black jacket that wrapped her body.

Robin’s eyes widened when he saw the many bandages that wrapped Zwetta’s body.

“This much?”

“My left arm is injured,” Zwetta said quietly. “I was shot by Rodrigo Lopez’s men for hiding as soon as I shot the drug boss dead, while my right arm is a dummy bandage.”

“A fake bandage? What does that mean?”

Zwetta slowly brushed the hair that covered the back of her neck.

“What... did you get a tattoo, Zee?”

Zwetta excitedly nodded his head. “Yes.”

“Why?” asked Robin, surprised and confused, in all the years of knowing Zwetta, this is the first time Robin has been so shocked by the decision that Zwetta has made. Because tattoos are one of the most disliked arts, Zwetta. But this time, suddenly Zwetta proudly showed her a tattoo.

“Just ask Andres,” Zwetta replied calmly, putting the burden on Andres, whose face was now pale. “He suggested I get a tattoo.”

Robin quickly turned his face towards Andres who was stuck to the wall just like a lizard. “Andres.”

“I can explain everything, boss,” Andres stammered with his hands up in the air. “I..it’s not what you think.”

Robin narrowed his eyes. “Explain in my room. And you, Zee... immediately treat your wound to doctor Gee.”

“Ok,” answered Zwetta curtly.

Zwetta, who deliberately took revenge, then stuck her tongue out at Andres who was walking hastily following Robin’s footsteps. Zwetta looked so satisfied to see that her co-worker was scared.

“Zee..Zee..” Doctor Giana muttered quietly. “Come here, let me examine the wound on your left hand.”

Without being ordered twice Zwetta immediately approached doctor Giana, because two days had passed, Zwetta did not feel the biting pain anymore. She even looked so relaxed when docror Giana removed the bandage covering her wound.

“Who treated you?” Doctor Giana asked quietly, her eyes looking at the stitches that covered the wound on Zwetta’s neat arm.

“Doctor Rebeca.”

“That Doctor Rebeca?”

Zwetta nodded slowly. “Yes, that doctor Rebeca.”

Doctor Giana took a deep breath, her attention was immediately drawn to the tattoo on the back of Zwetta’s neck that extended to the back of her neck. “Then this tattoo, why are you suddenly doing tattoos? Haven’t you always hated tattoos, huh?”

“I don’t know, what doctor Rebeca said earlier challenged me to get this tattoo.”

“What words?”
