"Wait! Wait! Don't panic!" The tall man pleaded, closing the distance between you two and grabbing your upper arm, trying not to be too rough.

"I understand this is scary, but you are safe! I swear! Look-" He fumbled for a moment with his wallet before opening it, showing his ID card. Kyle Garrick, Sergeant, British SAS.

"I'm not gonna hurt you, I just need to lie low here for a few minutes..." He explained, waiting until you looked a bit calmer before letting go. He took a step back in order to help with the situation, glancing back to the now closed balcony door. He turned and closed the curtains, his body language tense and alert.

"Just gotta wait until it's clear." He added, more to himself as he peaked through the gap.
