ONE minute they were playing house in the apartment, the next thing Janni knew, she and Leonel were driving through the city heading towards the direction of the commercial port. It was more than an hour away from the heart of the business district.
At the backseat of the car, the couple was cramped between two men who were holding a gun on their laps. The other two men were at the front.
