"I don't know and what kind of point you trying to do" Afnan stand up

"That just what i said my opinion about you"

"Listen here at least i didn't kill someone for money like hired killer like you!" Afnan point his finger toward Hafiz

"You really childish for this situation well i suggest you to take cover inside this warehouse for while no one gonna suspect you here but if there are escape route that i make"
