As I watched towards a distance, I felt a pair of arms around me. His presence silenced the taunting voices in my head.
“Now what’s your next plan?” A male voice asked behind us.
We turned towards the newcomer to see him holding Amanda in similar manner. I could see her shaking in his arms.
In between all the drama I forgot to see how she was doing. I am some kind of a friend. Promised to bring her back safely yet didnt think of her when needed.
She must have been scared so much. Yet till now she stood as if it was no issue at all. She indeed is so much stronger than I or anyone gave her credit for.
Thank God for Neo. I don’t think I would be able to console her when I can’t silence the voices without help.
“Go home? Taking her back to her book boyfriend?” Ryder said behind me yet I could hear him smirking. I elbowed him to which he grunted.
“What I meant is.. Now what’s your next plan with Black Jack co.?” Neo asked again irritated.
