"Alright." She

"Yeah..."
"Come on." He escorted her away to a car
quickly, and they headed for the airport.
"Hey, it's okay. You're on the way home now."
"I know."
Krit smiled a bit. "Do you think... do you think she'll be glad to
see me, when we find her?"
"
"I don't know...probably."
"Boss, we've got a problem,"
"God, I hope she says yes..."
"Yeah...we'll see."
"Shit..."
"
"Fuck."
"Good news travels, I guess."
"Yeah...I'll be there soon."
"I guess it was sort of cocky of me when we haven't found her, but I got a
ring," Krit said.
"We'll empty the place, but I can meet you in the usual location, or I can
try to get
"That's good..."
"Do what you want."
"I'll go after her, can't have her getting back to the IMF. I'm sure

Krit handed

As they pulled out,

She paused. "It's him... they're... he knows. He's looking for

"He knows what?"
"About the baby."
"Shit...no."
"He has to..."
"Then we make it so there's no baby."
"You want me to get an abortion." Cassidy shook slightly.
"I..."
"No, I will,"
"I just..."

"I feel bad."
"If it's what has to happen, then I'll do it."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Okay."
"So... when we stop... I'll talk to the medical people, and you can do
whatever has to be done.”
"Alright."
"I'm sorry."
"It's okay."

He had spent too long looking at the images not to know the man immediately
when he walked into the cafe. Krit stood up.
"
"You won't find Cassidy."
"Where is she?" Krit demanded.
"Why do you care?"
"Plenty of reasons! She's having my
child! Not that you'd understand..."
"No... she's not."
"Don't lie, I've seen the reports. She's having my child and I'm
going to ask her to marry me."
"The child is being killed as we speak."
"What?" Krit felt something
tighten in his throat.
"It's gone."
"It doesn't matter... I love her... I'll marry her anyway. I'm going
to find her, no matter what the hell you've done to her!"
"She'll never marry you."
“Don’t think that’s really your decision, is it?”
"She's married." And with that he shot Krit with a tranq gun.
Krit fell to the floor.
