My last thoughts brought me courage. The slightest chance that one of them would feel sympathetic and help me out with my situation brought bubbles of excitement to my heart.
"You two!" one of them yelled, just as I mustered the courage to drop to my knees. I jolted instinctively, anxiousness creeping into my heart.
