Amora was stunned by the bombshell Solomon had just dropped regarding his past.
It seemed like something straight out of a drama; a chance encounter had reunited two long-lost friends once more.
The evidence he had shown her made it nigh impossible to deny his words.
Amora took a sip of coffee to calm herself down.
Just then, the doors to the café were slammed open.
Shocked, Amora turned around.
She had not even figured out what was going on when she found herself dragged roughly from her seat by a man.
"Ah!"
She screamed in pain.
Solomon, who was seated opposite her, stood up immediately and confronted the man.
"Kane, what the h*ll are you doing?"
"Shut the f*ck up! I'll blow your brains out if you say one more word!"
Kane was the absolute picture of a madman.
To the café-goers' shock, he pulled out a gun and aimed it at Solomon's head.
Everyone paled in fear, including Solomon, who stood stock-still, allowing Kane to lead Amora away without further protest.
Well, other than Amora herself.
"What are you doing? Kane, let me go! You're hurting me!"
She pleaded frightfully.
She had never seen him this unhinged.
Technically I've seen him like this twice, though we were kids back then.
Her memory of his monstrous behavior back then only added to her fear, especially since he seemed to be taking it out on her this time.
What is he trying to do? Is he going to shoot me? Amora shuddered in fright as she begged, "Kane, d-don't freak out.Listen to me, things aren't what they seem.Won't you calm down, hmm?"
Kane seemed impervious to her pleas as he dragged her to his car.
Opening the front passenger door, he pushed her inside and slammed the door.
Amora winced as she fell into the car.
Has he gone mad? What on earth is he doing? Crawling into a sitting position, she banged on the car windows and shouted, "Kane, what are you doing? Let me out!"
Instead, her captor boarded the car wordlessly and drove them away.
Amora had a bad feeling about how things were about to turn out.
Barely a quarter of an hour later, the car stopped in front of their hotel.
