A young boy keep running away from the crowd he was being chase until he is tired he found a small house and break in the house without thinking who he will find inside nor even knocking the door he was just saving himself no doubt.

Inside the house were only 4 people sitting in chairs and their eating dinner. chief of the village Mr Lodule Pitia, his wife Mrs Hellen, his small brother Daniel Pitia who is 25 years old and his daughter Alexandra Pitia who is 18 years old.

Therefore, the young boy was afraid and do not know what to do, his eyes are full of tears and you can see his face is full of fear and he is shaking no doubt he might be someone else or a stranger, he runs a distance.
