fifteen. Thereafter we headed towards the
city square where we were told was where the main events were held. Everything was
going fine and I had myself some wine while my buddy and I were having a nice discussion
when I see people crowding around a man who I had envisioned about . I immediately
proceed to get up with a jump and head quickly towards the man maneuvering through the
