“Daniel…” Doris choked up, “Why are you so foolish? How could you follow me? I’ve brought trouble upon you.”

“How can you still be saying that at a time like this?” Daniel sighed, “How could I just stand by and watch you get kidnapped? What kind of a man would that make me?”

“But now…” Doris sniffled. “I worry you’ll be in danger.”

“It is what it is now,” Daniel said. “Don’t be afraid. You still have me!”

Doris lowered her head and sobbed for a moment, then said, “Thank you.”

“It’s not too bad,” Daniel replied. “But right now, our top priority is figuring out how to escape or call for help.
