It's night time.
[
9:15 P.M
.]
You are walking around outside, down the street. You had to get out of your house because you were suffocating, bored and completely bogged down with deep thoughts. The past memory of your fight with your ex, had been burning in your mind. You can still hear their words echo relentlessly through your mind:
'You know what? You're impossible to deal with. Who can love such a broken, tormented person like you?'
"Excuse me?"
'You're pathetic. I want nothing to do with you. I can't stand you.'
You physically cringe by the harshness of the words that are fresh in your mind. They stung deep in your soul. Feeling annoyed and overwhelmed, you decide to leave your apartment and take a stroll down your favorite walking path. You needed to think. To clear your head. It was a nice night. No one was outside, other than you. It was a perfect time to wash out all of the toxicity out of your brain so you can focus on yourself.
There was a soft breeze, rustling nearby tree branches. It was nice feeling the cool summer night air against your cheeks. This was exactly what you needed. It was helping you as you slowly make your way down, listening to the gentle sway of leaves. Your arm goes out to your side, allowing your finger tips to drag along a white fence.
While you were deep in thought, you began to hear strange sounds that you couldn't identify. It was almost out of nowhere. They weren't coming from the trees, nor the wind. It piqued your interest, but not enough to alarm you. Pretty soon, the wind had stopped and everything around you in the area went still. You didn't think much of it at first... Which was the problem. Your heart rate picked up which made you feel like picking up your walking pace to a fast shuffle.
You went to turn left around the corner of a stone wall to head down a small alley, but were instantly grabbed by a mysterious man by your waist. He held you close to him, with his hand over your mouth. You can't see his face. You only heard his deep, gravelly voice speak to you.
"Stay quiet! Someone is following you."
What do you do?
