The Stranger in my room

Chapter 1

While walking I glanced at the black coloured watch wrapped around my wrist which was gifted by my mom on Christmas. I realised that I still had enough time before my next class starts, so I decided to take advantage of this time and headed towards the canteen.

I was dressed in a navy blue coloured hoodie and black Jeans and hair tied into a bun.

Yeah, this is how I dress for college.
Strange!! Right?

As other girls usually paint their faces with loads of make-up and wear tiny dresses to grab the boy's attention but I am not into any of these things.
I usually stay alone so that one notices me.

While walking down the corridor I watched everyone else chatting around. Everyone had at least one person to talk but I had none.

Yeah... I don't even have a single friend which means that I am super introverted.

And believe me, I don't regret it. I was happy in my small world.

I walked alone towards the canteen while humming a song. Suddenly I noticed everyone rushing towards the basketball court. I was least interested in these stupid college dramas so I didn't bother to go there.

I kept going on my way to the canteen. Suddenly someone came from behind and ran while pushing me. I stumbled but luckily didn't fall.

What the fuck!!!!
How stupid !!!
Are these people blind?

I cursed under me breathe but didn't say that loud because I didn't want to quarrel with anyone.
I try to keep myself away from any kind of college drama.
My only desire is to complete my studies as soon as possible and do a job to help my mother.

Well, I am Jennifer Brown, presently 20 years old.
My only wish is to pass my next two years of college unnoticed by people like I have passed my first year and then get a job. I don't want people's attention.
People here don't even know that I exist because I barely interact with others in college.
My life is already messed up so I don't want unnecessary drama. I just want a simple life with as little drama as possible.

Suddenly I heard a cheering sound from the basketball court. I again peeked at my watch. I guess I had plenty of time before my next class starts, so my curiosity made me step towards the basketball court.

When I approached there making my way through the crowd, suddenly someone dropped to my feet.
I got horrified and stumbled backwards.
My blood froze when I saw a boy whose face was covered with blood, lying at my feet, whining in pain.

What the hell!!!

I was scared, would be an understatement because I was immensely horrified.
My whole body started shivering due to fear.
Everyone's gaze diverted at me.
I couldn't even move. I was glued to that spot due to fear.
I had never seen someone in such a horrendous state ever.

Then suddenly someone rushed towards me and aggressively picked that boy's head and smacked it to the ground with a thud. I closed my eyes abruptly.
He whined in pain. I clutched my hoodie tightly.
He again lifted his head to smack on the ground when an unexpected sound came from my mouth, "Stop", I yelled while holding my head in both hands.

Everyone's eyes darted over me in shock at once.
I instantly wanted to hide inside my shell.

Finally, I looked at the person who was beating him.
He had stopped after I yelled.
That is when he noticed me and looked at me leaving that boy on the ground.

I heard everyone whispering around me, this girl invited trouble now.
She shouted at him.
Now he will not spare her.
Poor girl...

He looked at me with furious eyes. His bloodshot eyes were burning with rage.
His whole body seemed like craving to kill someone. And now I stopped him from having his prey so he will make me his prey.

God help me!!

His grey eyes were filled with extreme anger and rage.

I looked at him fearfully, unaware of what to do.

Will I die now?
Should I run away from here?

I could feel my heart beating so fast that it would jump out any second.
Adrenaline rushing like crazy through my body.
But my brain stopped processing what to do and I kept standing there like a statue.

He took some steps towards me.
But as he was approaching me I sensed his eyes were calming with each passing second.
The anger which I saw nanoseconds before seems to fade away.

Really?
How?
Is it happening for real?
Is it my delusion?
How did his demeanour change suddenly?

No no no...
It is just a trap... He will kill me too for interrupting him...
Run Jennie...
Save your life and run.

Before he could approach me, my brain become active and I ran from there.
Everyone's eyes were on me but I ran till I didn't find a safe place.

My breath was panting. I couldn't breathe properly. But I kept running away from there and stopped when I reached inside the girl's washroom.

I hope he would not come here.
I guess I am safe now.

I placed a hand on my chest and sighed.

What the fuck just happened??
