Even when he was tired he still came to pick her up from the airport, her heart melted at this thought. She looked out of the window and saw that there was no house in view anymore. Where was David taken her to? She asked herself but just decided to wait and see. After about 30 minutes they appeared in front of a huge gate. The gate opened, it was an electric gate that c

She dialed Arya’s number, and it rang.Arya picked up her call at the first ring and asked, "Who is this?" She said it in a sober voice.There was complete silence; the only thing Arya could hear was the voice of someone sighing, "If you don’t tell me who you are, I will hang up and block this number!" Arya said in annoyance that she was not in the mood for nonsense calls.Hanan bit her bottom lip. "It’s me, Hanan."Arya moved the phone from her ear and looked at the number that called; it was a number from Italy. She frowned, thinking the person was calling to prank her since the whole world already knows that Hanan is dead and that they were best friends.
