That is all I could hear is heart racing,pounding in my ears.It was like all the air had been knocked out of my body. I'm left paralysed huffing and puffing trying to receive air.

My eyes couldn't leave his eyes as if I was in a trance. I turned my body stiffly and walked over to the man who was holding Mateo and took him from him.
