Stranger

Jasmine Gu and her subordinate, Dave Wang boarded the helicopter to A City. She can't help thinking of her past. She was raised as a princess by her family. Showered with so much love and even with material things but it seems like everything that happened to her was just a dream that turned into a nightmare. Her uncle's family were really close to their family so she can't believe that he will betray her father. She remembered the day when their house was taken over by the bank, she didn't know where to go and decided to seek help from her uncle. But they turned a blind eye to her, she was even laughed at and criticized by her cousin, Samantha Gu. She can still remember clearly the insults thrown at her by Samantha. Growing up she treated her cousins, Samantha and Kevin, as her own siblings she didn't know the reason of Samantha's hatred.

Jasmine sighed thinking of the memories of the past that cut her heart open. Seems like until now her heart still bleeds because of what happened. She was treated like a stranger by the people she thought would help her.

In her reveree, David called her to inform her that they have arrived at the base in A City.

Colonel, the Major General is waiting for you. - David told her.

Her mood changed and a bright smile appeared into her face. She got excited all of a sudden. The Major General, Jacob Lin, is considered her bestfriend. They met at J Country Military Academy during their training and he stuck with her from then on. Jacob will sometimes visit her but it is her first time to visit him in A City. She never expect that she will be back to where she came from.

Cough! Cough!

Jasmine raised her head and saw Jacob standing in front of her. He shook his head because he knew that she is out of this world again thinking of so many things.

Jasmine hugged the man and patted his back. - How are you, Major General? Congratulations on your promotion. I think you should treat me tonight.

No problem, Jacob replied and he hugged her back. Welcome to A City. At last you're able to visit.

Well I didn't really expect a sudden visit here but it's the nature of our work. I should be mentally and emotionally prepared for everything. She sighed again. Her heart still feels heavy thinking of this place. She really can't stop thinking what awaits her here. And how is she going to face her relatives who abandoned her before.

As they head to the base they started to make a plan to go out for dinner to celebrate Jacob's promotion. Jasmine is now in the mood to drink because she really is happy that her friend got promoted.

When they reached the base, they went directly to the Commanders office and discuss some plans and the people they need for this mission. Jasmine knew already that she needs to pretend as a high school student, so the commander in A City need to arrange everything for her.
