about five in the morning on a Saturday, Darwin is wide awake and ready to start his day, but his day resides in his room on his two-year-old laptop where he would run and create his websites while sipping on a small fine china cup of coffee. he only did what he did on his laptop as a hobby. right next to him was his phone which was forever buzzing with notifications he got from an unknown number. Darwin picks his phone up and stares longer at the number but not the message with his dead eyes. he puts his phone down and continues with his work on his laptop then suddenly the phone stops buzzing. he looks at his phone and lets out a barely noticeable smile, then the smile is killed just like the silence when the phone starts ringing instead.  With an irritated look, he picks his phone up, and the unknown number is calling. he takes a deep breath in and a deeper breath out then answers the phone. before he gives the caller a chance to say anything he tells him with an irritated tone "Listen here, you clearly saw I was ignoring your messages. Calling me is gonna be a real problem so I was wondering if you could leave me the hell alone, hunting you down would end really badly on your side." the caller's response was a few giggles sounding like it came from a little girl. "gosh, did your mother not teach you how to speak with a lady? you're quite ru-" she was cut from the call before she could finish her sentence. Darwin set his phone on silent and went to take a shower. he soaks up the heat from the shower for about ten minutes and once was done in the shower he walks out of the bathroom with a mind at peace. well, the peace was quite temporary, he finds his phone vibrating on the floor. It was the eighth call attempt. Darwin honestly couldn't care less who it was but the fact that they did not heed his warning kind of pissed him off. Darwin closes his eyes but at the same time, it was as if he was paying attention to his surroundings. His sense of smell, sense of touch, taste, sound, and his sight, once he opened his eyes were all sharpened. Darwin rushes to his window and sees a girl on a phone. Darwin's phone rings once more, he answers it and looking at the girl says "your reason for annoying me better good" she looks directly at him from two stories down outside his house and says "damn, you knew I was out here? I didn't tell you where I was but you're right there staring at me. chase me, or rather chase this" the mysterious girl puls out an antique key which causes Darwin's heart to race and his blood to boil. before she could start running he was already downstairs, he skipped the stairs and just jumped all the way below. the girl looks at the door burst open with a shirtless man running through with his toe getting wet from the dew in the grass. the girl puts out one of the biggest smiles and just as drawing is no less than a hair away from grabbing her. she evades him so fast you'd swear you saw an after image. a raged bull was racing around the fields to try to charge at a hummingbird, as the bull got angrier the bird flew more swiftly. she anticipated Darwin correctly time after time. you could see how much fun she was having just from the smile on her face and Darwin was beyond annoyed. he was going through a feeling he wasn't used to.
