71 José Yusmairobis(III)
Ss looked at Mr Yusmairobis'' face strangely, and thought to himself.
''Is he trying to recruit me?''
Ss expected it to an extent. From the information gathered by LUNAR, Ss was already aware that the country has no Phenomenals.
That''s why Mr Yusmairobis trying to recruit him didn''t surprise him but that doesn''t mean he would be willing to be recruited, but he''s curious as to what he meant by theming to an agreement that will benefit the both of them.
Mr Yusmairobis seeing Ss'' silence knew that he finally got his attention.
"You told Andrés that you what full control over the country''s military and its economy, what if I tell that I can give you what you want and in exchange, you help me with what I want," He said with a smile.
"Why should I believe you?," Ss asked. He couldn''t help but have an uneasy feeling when he heard what Mr Yusmairobis said.
"Why should I lie to you? We were never enemies to begin with and from what I see, you''re extremely strong, way stronger than other Phenomenals," Mr Yusmairobis said and let out a sigh before continuing, "Let me honest with you, I don''t really like the organization. The organization just any other ce, is controlled by those with outmost power."
Mr Yusmairobis paused for a few seconds and looked at Ss intently, withplicated emotions in his eyes.
"One day, my daughter started behaving strangely. She would faint for an unknown period of time and after she wakes up, she will look extremely pale and very weak, that she won''t be able to move for days.
I took her to the hospital, did a thorough scan and check up but nothing was found with wrong with her. The doctor said her condition was perfect, but I knew that it wasn''t true. Something was definitely wrong.
The situation continued until one day, she fainted and never woke up. She becameatose."
At this point, Mr Yusmairobis voice was already breaking and light sobs could be heard in-between.
Ss was stumped. He still doesn''t understand how their conversation became so emotional but he knew that it would be wrong to interrupt the old. He just has to let him pour out all his heart.
They say men don''t cry, men don''t feel but how true is that statement? Is there really any human who is truly without emotions? The answer is a definite no!
Mr Yusmairobis paused for a long time before continuing, "She was still 12 years of age when she becameatose and now, five years has passed and she still hasn''t woken up.
Before she becameatose, I had no idea that people like the Phenomenals exist. It was after a fortunate or should I say an unfortunate encounter that I found out.
I was told by a high ranking member of the organization that they might have a solution to my daughter''s problem but first, I had to join them.
At first, I was skeptical but after a series of event, I believe and brought my daughter to them, having as much fate as I could.
But my decision was actually thest nail in the coffin. After that day, I never got to see my daughter again.
I was mad, I raged but it was like a toothless dog, barking. I was willing to fight, go to war if needed to get my daughter back but how many countries and conglomerate organizations would I be able to fight?
I was defeated before the fight even started and I lost my reason to live."
Mr Yusmairobis broke downpletely, with his voice cracked by unrestrained sobs and tears, freely flowing down his cheek.
"Please, I will give anything, wealth, the country, my life even, just to see my daughter again. I want to know if she''s still alive or dead."
Ss was loss for words.
''How should he respond?'', he thought.
"LUNAR, did you find anything on his daughter?," Ss asked LUNAR through the Gear neural interface.
{No. It''s like she doesn''t exist.}
"Try following every lead you get on her and tell me what you find."
{Yes sir.}
While Ss was talking to LUNAR through the Gear''s neural interface, to the oblivious Mr Yusmairobis, he saw an emotionless kid looking at him through the lenses of theptop''s screen.
He knew it. There''s no way he would be able to have Ss help him.
Why should he?
He was about to give up all hope when he heard Ss'' words.
"I will help but ites with a condition."
Without thinking, Mr Yusmairobis responded, "What is it?"
"You will do anything I say," Ss said, and for a moment, a very heavy silence descended.
Mr Yusmairobis responded immediately with a nod. At this point in his life, he cared little for anything else except his daughter.
Seeing Mr Yusmairobis quick response, Ss was satisfied.
"I will contact youter, by the end of the day to let you know if I find anything on your daughter," Ss said, and Mr Yusmairobis nodded before hanging up the video call.
After the call ended, Ss let out a deep breath. He felt a rollercoaster of emotions in his heart.
"Things just keep getting more and moreplicated with each passing seconds," Ss said to himself with a sigh.
Ss decided to look at his status panel to give himself a boost of confidence and energy. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
