It's already 9 pm but my driver still hasn't arrived. So, I decided to take a walk because our house is not that far from the mall. As I was walking, I felt someone following me, so I turned around and saw a man wearing a cap, smiling at me strangely, So I quickened my walk and never looked back. After a few minutes, I was on my way home, there were two (2)men sitting on the bench near the guardhouse. I wonder where the guard was at that time. I feel nervous and trembling but still, I manage to look strong for them to know, that I am not afraid of them. When I was about to enter the gate of our village, One (1) man approached me and said ... " Miss, can I take you out? " he said with a devil laugh. I guess, he's crazy. " No, I will take her first! Ha-ha," the other man answered. He was the man who followed me earlier. I don't know what to do. I think they're all criminals. "Please take my bag, I have money inside, so let me go." I offered my bag and purse with a pitiful look. I almost cried. "No! I don't need your money! Baby! I just need you! You look fresh and innocent. Guys, hold her!" said the man who followed me and ordered his fellow criminal to hold me. "Help! Help! Help!" I shouted but no one could hear me. So I cried and prayed that someone would hear me. They took me to the Black Van but I tried my best to escape but I failed. Every shout I made, they kept slapping me. I'm just hurting myself, so I'm closing my eyes ... "God, if this is the end of my life, I ask and beg you, that they do not abuse me. I want to die peacefully. If you want to see me alive, please send someone to help me, and I will give my life to him,” I prayed and my tears flowed. I was surprised because they suddenly fell silent so I opened my eyes. And I saw a man, wearing a mask, fighting with three (3) black men, I could see how skilled he was, in martial arts. When the three (3) men fell, he looked at me angrily. "Why are you here at this time? What's your job? Are you a call girl?" he asked me angrily. Instead of answering his question, I cried and said. "Thank you for saving my life, without you, I might be dying now! Thank you so much. I owe you my life. What do you want me to do, so that I can pay you back?" I said and I kept crying. "Yeah! You owe me a lot, and I need your life to pay me off! Come on, I need to accompany you safely to your house! Next time, don't come out if you're alone, okay?" he said seriously. I know, he's not that bad, he has a soft heart. "And thank God for answering my prayers. You're so good to me. Thank you so much!" I whispered in my mind. "Okay, thank you!" I replied and looked at his car, I knew he was from a wealthy family. This is my first time riding in an expensive car. If I’m not mistaken, his car is the most expensive, the Bugatti La Voiture Noire. " Where's your boyfriend? Why are you alone?" He asked me coldly. "I don't have a boyfriend," I replied in a low voice. "All right!" and he looked at me in the mirror of his car and I saw his familiar eyes. "Have we met before?" I didn’t mean to ask him. " Why did you ask?" He asked me with a smile on his face. I could feel it, even though he was wearing a mask. "Your eyes are familiar. May I know your name?" I asked him and I looked into his eyes again. Someone popped into my mind. "Just call me “RR”, don’t think too much of me because I’m a stranger here in your area. If you think of someone who looks like me, you are wrong. I am a widower, "he said seriously and fiercely. "By the way, I'm Devyn but you can call me Devz. Sorry, if I got you wrong. I thought you were the guy, I've been looking for almost three (3) years. I can't sleep well because I hurt him before, I told him that I don't love him but the truth is, I love him dearly. He is still the one I love. " I confessed to him while sobbing. Even though he was coldhearted, he hugged me very tightly and whispered. "Then why you neglect that someone?" he asked me seriously. "I have my reason, it's confidential. I will tell him next time if he is willing to listen." I said and sighed. "What if, he is not interested to listen? What if, he loves someone else? How would you react?" his question makes my heart broke again. "I don't know! If that is the case then I want to disappear here on earth for a little time. I want to mend this broken heart of mine. So that, my new come back is worth it. And I promised to myself that I will not give him any more space in my heart," then I cried again. "Sorry for asking. Don't worry, everything will be fine at a perfect time. So, stop crying! You look like a baby, who likes candy. Ha-ha," he said while laughing and patting my forehead. He looks like a brother to me but I feel weird about him. "Hope so!" I answered as I looked around. Why is it, I feel so comfortable and safe when he hugs me? Is he the man, destined to be my husband? Why is it, I already talked  future husband wherein fact, I'm just 17 years old. After a few minutes... I got home safe and happy because I met my superhero, even though he was wearing a mask, I can guarantee he was handsome. Ha-ha-ha Hopefully, we will meet again in the future. If destiny allows us to meet again, maybe he will be mine forever.
