Finally, I was fully prepared for my solo act and it was the day of checking the fitting of the clothes. The club member informed me that my dress was ready while I was practicing so I went to try it on. I entered the change room and then changed into the outfit. It fitted me well and there were little changes to be made to it. I walked out wearing the same to tell the member of the club about the changes.

When I walked towards the desk, there was no one around so I had to wait. After a while, the door opened and I heard footsteps, I thought it must be the club member and stood up to inform about the changes. But then to my annoyance, Zee walked in and stood in front of him.

"This dress seems to fit you well." He said while patting my shoulder. I slapped his hands away and took a step back in my defense. "Keep your hands to yourself." I snarled. "What did I do? I was just checking your dress." Zee defended himself. I knew very well what he was up to.

"Don't try to fool me Zee, I can see what you are up to. Where is the club member in charge of the dresses?" I asked. "She went out for a break and left me in charge." Zee replied. I felt something fishy about this. "Well, then I'll return when she is around and I turned to walk towards the change room.

I was about to take a step forward when I felt a grip around my wrist. I turned around and saw Zee holding my wrist. "What are you up to Zee?" I asked trying to free my hand. "Are you scared that you might fall for me if I am too close to you?" Zee asked stepping closer.

"Dream on it Zee! You are nowhere near to my husband. And leave my hand before I report you to Dean. Remember the warning you got last time." I threatened. "Do you think that Dean is going to stop me from doing anything?" Zee asked stepping closer. I could see the predator look in his eyes.

I started to get scared finding him this close to me. I tried to pull my hand away from his grip but he was holding it too tightly. "Don't you dare run away." He stated getting closer. "Leave me Zee!!" I shouted hoping someone will come for my rescue after hearing my voice.

"Why are you being this difficult Pete? I am just asking for your friendship. Also, I haven't even done anything wrong." Zee spoke. I took a step back trying to put some distance between us but he kept coming closer. I kept taking step back and then, I felt something hit my back. I turned around and found myself already reached the wall.

Zee was still moving towards me and I was now trapped between him and the wall. I thought about the situation for a while and came up with an escape plan. I let my wrist relax pretending to be tired of running away. I could feel Zee relaxing his stance as he came closer.

I gathered all my strength and the next second pushed Zee away with all my might. It helped me since his grip on my hand loosened as he felt the impact of my action. He felt to ground and I took the opportunity to rush towards the door. I got enough time to get out of the place and be in a safer surrounding. I saw the person in charge of the outfit returning and let out a sigh of relief.

"Pete, are you alright? You look like you just got into some trouble." The girl said. "No... I am fine. I was just searching for you." I replied while panting heavily. "Okay... come, let's see if the outfit needs any touch up." She said and then gestured me to follow. When we walked back into the room, there was no sign of Zee. Thank God, I didn't mention to her about Zee otherwise she would have thought I was making up some stories.

She checked my outfit and I narrated to her the changes and addition I wanted. After I was done, I called Atid and he asked me to wait in front of the club room till he arrives. He didn't take long and soon appeared in front of me.

"Are you done? Can we leave now?" he asked. I just hummed in response and started walking. "Pete, is something wrong?" Atid asked. I know he would have seen my scared face. "Zee tried to trap me." I replied. "WHAT??? Why didn't you call me?" He asked in horror.
