I held my breath and my heart pounded very strongly as I hardly said: 

"-Hello?"

"-Hi dude. Do you remember me?"

"-Taekhwo?!" I asked in shock and my phone felt on the floor. Petrified, I walked a foot away from where the voice came. I could recognize this voice which my brain attributed at the most terrifying man to me. No way could he have found me. Not again, please! I prayed silently with my eyes shut as if this nightmare would disappear when I would open them. But I picked up my phone again and heard this grave voice laughing evilly on the other side of the line. 

"-Hahaha yes it is me. I am impressed you remember me since all those months. As you can see I am not calling with my personal phone, it would be too easy to localize me." He said with a smile in his voice. I felt all my rage come back and in a rush of courage I screamed with all my force:

"-WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HER??!!! WHERE IS SHE???!!! IF YOU DID SOMETHING BAD TO HER, YOU'RE A DEAD MAN, I WON'T REPEAT IT A SECOND TIME!!!!" My fist was clutched so strongly that my nails left marks on my skin, but I ignored it as my anger overwhelmed all my other emotions. "ANSWER ME!!!"

"-Ow calm down boy!" he replied laughing again. "She is safe somewhere with me and I have not done anything bad to her don't worry."

I was too shaken to say any word. I only waited for him to continue because I knew he called for a specific aim.

"-I think you can guess the reason why she is now under my power. Do you remember what happened last time we saw each other and what I told you?"

I remembered it too well. I tried to forget this part of my life but still it haunted me in my worst dreams.

>>It is one of the rare things I never told her because I did not want to make her scared. Last summer I has problems with a past gang story. I have never been an excellent teenager maybe mainly because my parents were never there so I learnt everything on my own. I was quite violent and nervous all the time. Do not get me wrong I have changed at the end of high school because I realized that I hurt my friends and the one who was counting for me. I am a sensitive and kind boy but I had problems to control myself. When I was upset, nobody would be there to comfort me and talk with me, so day by day I hid my sadness and my loneliness turned into violence which I thought would convince me that I could live on my own. I had the chance to find the school program easy so I got my diploma without any problems; although entering this university was a tough experience because of my past reputation. But I changed and I am so glad that I have found this angel to save me from my black hole. Anyway last summer a man I knew from my bad high school years found me again and wanted to take his revenge of the day when I alerted the police during a robbery which I was forced to take part. Him and his gang have had heard of me and my violence and he employed a little insecure teenager like me and my job was to break into a jewel store. But I told myself that it was a crime and I pressed the alarm before running far away. I thought he was sent to jail but last July we bumped into each other in a street and he warned me that he would do anything to ruin me, including the one I care about, just to make me pay for my treason. And that is what he did. He collected information about me and my girlfriend and today he decided to begin his plan. And I know him too well, he is able to do anything to her just to make me I give up. <<

I was gritting my teeth strongly.

"-What do you want in exchange of her freedom?" I whispered on the phone. All my body was trembling as I knew what he wanted. My life. Nothing less. And if possible, torturing me psychologically and physically before killing me.

"-Oh it is very simple: meet my agents alone at the place and the date I will tell you. Then she will be safe."

"-I can't. I know you too well; you will not free her. You just want to ambush me and then keep both of us for your own devil person."

"-It might be possible but if you do not try she will spend the rest of her days here. It is you only chance to do something for her. But maybe you are too coward. Or you do not love her as much as to sacrifice yourself for her?

"-Do not say that. You have never loved anybody this much, you do not know what it is to fall in love a person with your whole heart. To fall in love with everything about her. To adore every part of her, every inches of her body. To cherish her soul and her life more than yours. To be yourself with somebody that accepts you as you are. To feel the need of being able to protect her and make her happy. To feel like you just killed her or let her die without having done anything to save her from the people who kidnapped her for no reason that she is related to. To feel like you are the weakest person on earth with no powers knowing that if she is suffering now, it is entirely your fault. Do not talk of what you have never experienced. She does not need to be included in this. It is only between two of us, if she is hurt I will never forgive myself. Ever."

"-No I have never known that. But I have this anger I kept in my heart for several years to make you pay for what you did to me. You should have never pressed that button. Yes I have been caught, judged and had to escape from jail. But during those seven years I had the time to gather all the information I needed and prepared my escape. So if you are not at the basketball field in three hours alone you will hear her screams during the long nightmares that will become your life. See you soon." and with that he cut the conversation. You made two huge mistakes, I told myself sitting on the couch: touching my most precious girl in the world and calling with her phone. You will regret it man. And with that I ran to the nearest police station.
