The Spy Chapter 3 – Part III

Agatha arrived late from her job that day. That day like many other days, in fact. In those days, the owner of the inn’s daughter was working a lot. The war asked it, Alex knew. And, to him, more important than when Agatha arrived from her job was what she information she brought with her.

“Hello.” He said to her, while she pretended to be casually going to the kitchen in the exactly moment that she arrived.

“Are you still awake, Alex?”

“I can’t sleep, in truth. I’ll do a hot tee for me, I hope I’ll can sleep after it...”

“Good luck...”

“What about you, are you coming from work now?”

“Yes.”

“They shouldn’t keep you working that much. Your tired mind can’t produce so eficiently...”

“Do you think I can take a rest while so many people are fighting for me? For my safety?”

“They also have to take a rest, Agatha. It is impossible to do a good job if we are tired...”

“We have a pact: we will just stop when this war is won...”

“That’s a good pact. Your country is probably very proud of you. And that’s exactly why you deserve a tee.”

“Alex...”

Alex took her purse from her hands:

“I won’t get a no as answer. While you take a good shower, I’ll stay here, and when you come back, you’ll drink the best tee of your life.”

“Is your tee that good?”

L “No. But you are so tired you won’t see the difference..”

“Ok, ok. I’ll be back.”

“Not in hurry...”

Agatha leaved, without thinking if she should or not take her purse again. Alex put some water to get hot and looked inside her purse, in her things, what he was looking for: the card she used to enter the department where she worked. He calculated he would have 10 minutes to do a copy of its chip – time that was enough, as he knew. And, when Agatha came back from her shower, the card was inside her purse as it had never been outside it. And, the best tee of her life was ready, waiting for her, with Alex smiling in front of it: “I hope you like it and it helps you to sleep as you deserve this night...”
