She was strolling peacefully.
All alone on a deserted street
The streetlights flicker like in a horror movie.
Her shadow is characterized by a pair of hostile eyes.
And her beaded bag rests upon her shoulders
A car was tailing her.
She was nervous and felt unsafe.
She began walking warily,
Panicked, not knowing what to do
The car stopped in front of her.
"It's too late, let me drive you home," the stranger said with a creepy smile.
She refused and continued to walk.
The stranger got out of his car and told her to come.
She pretended to be deaf and continued walking.
The stranger got out of his vehicle and began following her.
She began to run.
She was running without a specific destination in mind.
She is aware that she is being pursued from behind.
Helpless
She was completely defenseless.
You could hear the pumping of her heart
As she was praying for the chase to be stopped
Fortunately, she happened to be in the middle of a crowd.
And lost track of the stranger
She dialed her father and told him to come to pick her up.
As her father arrived, she told him what happened
"I told you not to go outside alone"
"What were you thinking when you put these clothes on?"
"It's your fault, not his," the father yelled angrily.
She couldn't say anything.
She expected her father to console her.
However, she was mistaken.
As soon as she got home
She went to her room and began sobbing.
And since that time
She is sequestered in her room.
Destitute and alone
