"I'm sorry" she says weakly

Her chest made a tiny gap where the bullet had been, Lorenz couldn't understand sobs loudly with agonizing scream

"Iris my love, what happened...who did this to you!? Don't leave us love...we need you... please..." He spoke desperately and staring to her eyes with love.
