I race down the alley, as if my life depends on it. Which it very much does. I know I'll have to face him soon and there's no way I can run from him forever. I duck behind a trash can, out of breath. The streets of Nanton are silent, only the owls call every once in a while.
I press the side button of my phone, multiple times before I finally hear a woman's voice. I am instantly filled with relief.
"911, what's your emergency?"
"My boyfriend, ex-boyfriend actually, is trying to kill me." I choke out, tired from running.
Someone's hand comes down to grab my arm. I scream, dropping my phone and watching it slid across the gravel. I can only pray the woman is still listening.
"Sasha," his voice sings," I wouldn't do that if I were you."
I try to get away but then he pulls out a knife. I notice its long, thin blade. A hunting knife no doubt. Sharp enough to kill a pretty big animal, I would assume. Sharp enough to kill a person. Sharp enough to kill me. I cry out as he holds the knife up to my neck.
