She opened the bathroom door as her Australian Shepard Sheila greeted her wagging her tail and her front feet dancing impatiently underneath her as she waited to be acknowledged. She knelt down kissing the dogs snot, before being licked.
“You hungry?” she asked the dog as if it would answer, the dog let out a small whine “I could use some food to.” She smirked as she got up and headed into the kitchen.
She walked by her daughters new room. Their new house. On the Italian country side was beautiful. They had only been here a week and she was dreading having to leave. Although they would be stay here a while. She opened her daughters door quietly letting out their other dog Sarge Samantha didn’t know it, but the dog is highly trained to protect her when Rhyan isn’t home, he would die protecting her. She opened the door letting them run out back as she started on breakfast for her and Sam. It was Saturday and she intended on spending the beautiful sunny day with her daughter and keeping her mind off of last nights target.
Before leaving the house Harlow was sure to transfer money into her mother's bank account back in the States. Although it's been quite a while since she last saw her mom, she always made sure to send her an amount large enough to take care of the bills and a few other things. If she ever got a job near Baltimore she would make an effort to see Catherine Robinson. Harlow closed her laptop and headed back into her bedroom where she fished through the colorful variety in her closet for something wearable. To match her positive mood she settled on a ruffled yellow dress, complete with a matching floppy hat, sunglasses, and sandals. "My wonderful, sugary slice of temptation we'll be together soon." She cradled the boxed treat as if it were her own child, then again, that was how she treated anything with sugar in it.
Harlow walked to Rhyan's house, taking her time to enjoy the beautiful scenery. She really loved Italy and it was going to be a shame when they had to up and leave again. It was especially sad to think about the inevitable when the female thought about how much meticulous detail she put into designing her latest apartment. Such was the life of someone in her profession, she couldn't just settle down in one spot and expect to stay there forever. Whenever they had to leave, Harlow would take it upon herself to put the same dedication in the decor of her next place of residence too. After a short stroll, she reached her destination, silently admiring the greenery. She hadn't the slightest idea what time it was, the sun was up so it only could have been so early. Harlow rang the doorbell once, then for the hell of it, knocked on the door. "Knock knock, the sugar fairy has something she'd really like to share." She really wanted to see Samantha, she treated the girl like a niece. She also wanted to make sure Rhyan was holding up okay.
Rhyan smiled hearing a knock at the door as the dogs started to bark excitedly, they knew Harlow just as well as they knew Rhyan and Samantha. Rhyan gave Sam’s door a quick knock before peeking her head in.
“Sam, your aunt’s here time to get up.” She said softly leaving the door open as she made her way to the front door opening in to see the young girl in her door way.
“Mattina Bella!” She greeted her in Italian. In the line of work she was in she had to know practically every languge to talk to costumers or at least enough to get her by. “You look beutiful as always.” She smiled kissing her cheek. “Your just in time for breakfast.” She said stepping out of the way and holding the door wide open for her to come inside.

He sucked at his job. No self respecting assassin would be caught dead getting into such a solid routine. "Actually, they would be dead." he thought to himself, enjoying the unspoken joke. but he had been doing this for several years, and it had not hurt him yet, so he did not bother changing anything. perhaps, if his security situation changed, he would, but until then, he was happy. As he walked into the office, Jay instantly started talking to him.
"Hey, Shade," Jonathan grunted a greeting out of him. "Got any leads?"
"Good morning." he replied, "ON what in particular? I am currently screening a few targets."
Harlow made sure to give some attention to Sheila and Sarge; she loved dogs and animals in general but she didn't have any pets because she wouldn't always be able to take care of them. She sometimes treated the two dogs like they were her own children and often bought treats for them. "Sorry sweethearts, I can't share this with you guys today." She cooed at them then turned to Rhyan to hold up the pink box that'd been occupying her left hand. "It's never too early for something sweet. I bought some tiramisu from this cute little bakery, I bet it will taste heavenly." As much as she wanted to eat it now, she went into the kitchen and sat in on the counter. Her attention was captivated by the breakfast spread that was greeting her. "I'm jealous, how do you manage to cook so much?" Harlow was about to make a plate for herself when saw Sam make her appearance. "'Morning, does my beautiful niece have a boyfriend yet?" She walked around the table to wrap the girl up in a quick hug, a mischievous smile playing on her lips. She always told Sam whenever she got a boyfriend, if he did anything wrong, she'd tie him up in front of a moving train. In actuality, Harlow wasn't that opposed to the wicked idea. That's how protective she was of her.
"I was thinking maybe we could do some shopping today. The weather is way too nice to stay inside." Harlow suggested while sitting down with a plate full of food. You'd never guess it, with her slim figure and all, but she could eat a lot at one time. Thanks to her fast metabolism and active lifestyle she could get away with eating the way she did without worrying much about gaining weight.
