#Chapter53

Two Years Ago:

/"Are you ready?/" Ahad, my best man and sniper asked me. As I take my position for our task.

/"Ready as always, but I would prefer a close target. Long-range is not my speciality, so the first shot is yours./" Checking the time I continued, /"He will be coming out any minute./"

/"Roger that!/" Came his short reply. I took my position to cover him up in case he missed it, which he rarely does.

/"Tch... Why does she have to be in the wrong place?/" I heard Ahad mumbling.

/"What's the matter?/" I asked without moving my eyes from the exit.

/"See that girl in the yellow scarf? She is Kanwal, my fiancé./"

I was confused, why was he mentioning her right now? Then it clicked, he was worried about her.

/"So... you want to back off?/" I was unsure, not knowing how to ask the question.

/"No! It is now or never./" His voice held determination, which I admired the most.
