5 parts Ongoing She was across the street, wearing a volunteer's vest, helping people in a makeshift medical tent. The sight of her after all these years hit me like a punch to the gut. Her hair was longer, her face more determined, but she was still Zayra. Still the woman I had loved and lost.
Gunfire rang out again, and my training kicked in. I saw a man pointing a gun towards the tent, towards Zayra. Without thinking, I charged across the street, my heart in my throat.
"Zayra!" I shouted, grabbing her by the waist and pulling her behind an ambulance. She struggled against me, her eyes wide with fear and confusion, until they met mine. For a split second, the world stopped.
"Zeeshan?" she breathed, disbelief in her voice.
"Stay down," I ordered, peeking around the ambulance to see the shooters fleeing. I fired a few shots, but it was futile. They were gone.
The aftermath was a blur of sirens and shouting. I stayed close to Zayra, ensuring she was safe, while my team regrouped. Adrian's glare told me everything I needed to know. The operation had been a failure, and it was my fault.
