She has the ability to locate the direction of someone and something once you describe it and show her a picture— a living compass. Sam was born with the special ability as a compass, but this ability is a bad karma and just a curse for her. Through her ability, she can find people, pets and important things that had gone missing—it's her job to find someone and something that the customers asked. Her Guardians abused her ability to make profit with just one flick of their fingers, but she never had enough taste with that money-they-called. It was unfair on how and what kind of treatment she received from her aunty jillian, so she got the nerve to leave them—she left. Someone insisted her too, there's a voice inside her head. She thought leaving could be that easy way around and she will atleast live a life without encountering people like her guardians again, but she was way wrong. Sam encountered the worst people and situations a person may have, because she become an object to be sold in auction.
"500 dollars", the emcee started with that price and lots of elites raise their card
"$1000", the price beginned to increase
"$15,000", the nearly balded man raised his card and shouted his price—sam price.
"$25,000", the old woman in contoured face lit her card
"Is there anyone who wants to counterfeit the madamme price?" The emcee asked.
"$100,000", the man with the masked said in hurry
"More than $100,000?", it was again the emcee
"$1,000,000", the figure of  a man slid on the corner of her eyes, he wore the color of midnight blue coat and a knitted boetie, he was young as her.
" More than $1,000,000?",
The high pitch and loud voice of an emcee echoed inside the room.
"Anyone inside this room?"
......
"$0LD", the verdict on her.

She know nothing, but if there's one thing she was sure about, it was her mere situation— she's in danger.

"What do you need from me?", she asked to the man that's now her boss
"Are you hungry?", he asked without any intention of answering her question.
"Why did you  f*cking paid $1,000,000 for me?", she asked again.
"Where do you want to eat?, he asked her, ignoring her questions.
"I'll go eat with you anywhere!, but please answer my questions first!", she said a little annoyed.
"Fine!"
" I don't need anything from you, I just want to help you " he uttered
"Help? Why!?", she asked—confused.
"I love you", he said making her furrowed
"What!?", she asked in disbelief
"I LOVE YOU, SAM!", he repeated
"Maybe you didn't know me, but we'd met in a cafe a year ago?!", he added forming a wide upward curve in his face.
"…………"
"We had met, before!?", she asked to her self.
"Yes, we were!", he said transcripted towards her using his mind.
"How---d--idd--", sam stuttered
"This is my special ability", he said looking to her eyes— there'a a hint of longing
"Is it your voice I always hear inside my head?", she asked while her eyes watered.
Paul gaves her a nod and smile.
"Finally, I know that I am not a psycho and I am not alone, we are almost the same— we have special abilities! ", she said while her tears drifting down to her chicks.

"You know what!,I know now my life's direction, 'cause I found my missing compass", he said in a grin

They never missed any connection in the very beginning, before their path crossed once again.
Paul has the ability to read minds and  can talk to someone using this as well, but when he only allowed it to happen— he has a nature of telepathy.
Their ability has it own limits, for a living compass—Sam didn't know the direction of her life and can't locate someone that's has special space in her heart, while for a telepathic—Paul couldn't read a person's mind, if it is aloof and far away from him, but able to send message with limited words.
