The Nigerian pocketed his revolver and approached the Reporter.

Her smile caused his heartrate to accelerate.

"I am sorry, I didn't meant to invade your life like that."

She hesitated for a moment.

She took a step closer to him. "I can't tell how the rest of this night will be for both of us. But so far I am thankful God sent you here."

He stretched out his hands towards her. "I don't believe in coincidences."
