'...Can you handle him?'
Ignoring the sickening feeling I was having, I asked.
'No....I can't...
'He' replied, his voice filled with certainty, and I wholeheartedly agreed with him, but still, he made my body shield Inës behind my back...
'...Then what are you going to do?'
'...
Of course, 'he' didn't reply...
How could 'he'? When we both knew we couldn't do anything against him.
"...Survive."
And at last, 'he' muttered under his breath as the man entered the hall.
