He must not perish!I had to follow what this kidnapper ordered. Andrie will be harmed if I ask the policemen or anyone for help."Alright! I'll call you la
I stopped from walking when two men appeared in front of me. They both have guns.Their faces were serious. They are scary to look at. My heart beat faster. I felt very afraid of them.Yes I'm alone! I have no one. They can kill me if they can. Yes, definitely I have nothing against them to defend myself."Good because you kept your word! Where is the 100 million? We need to see."

Iris's POVI rubbed my little eyes. My tears falls endlessly. My eyes are gently bleaching and puffy.I can't believe it at all of a sudden. The man I wanted to be with is now gone. He left me alone. Tears at the memories. He left me and he never came back again. A story full of cheerfulness. But it was replaced by sadness and longing. He is indeed a hero. Ready to fight on war.If love is war?
