This app is so flipping shit. Anyways enjoy the chapter lads xxxx
After a slow morning I decided that I should take a walk to clear my head and maybe grab some lunch. I change into some flared jeans and a simple black high neck and grab a corduroy jacket. Maybe I should wear something a little warmer but I'm already suffocating in my overheated apartment. As I step out into the hallway and lock my door I hear some mummering. Looking around I can't see anyone but knowing myself I am unable to shrug off the paranoia. I had of course taken my medicine before but it felt like the effects were wearing off. Leaving the apartment complex I step out into the busy rush of Christmas shoppers and tourists that always crowd New York streets.
Stuffing my hands into my pockets I begin to walk and the event of last night once again makes a recurrence in my mind. A wave of shame overcomes me, how could I have been so pathetic and let someone push me around like that, again. I thought I would have at least gotten stronger in the time that had passed. I may have saved my skin to some extent but what would happen if I saw him again. I had nothing to protect myself at all. I could bite and scratch but that could only do so much against someone holding an armed weapon. Maybe I ought to buy a knife at the very least. No matter what it came to, I never want to hold a gun again.
As I walk towards a quieter street I feel the first few flakes of snow this season. Wishing I had a scarf at least,I keep an eye out for a welcoming cafe. Instead I pass by a weapons shop. Lingering out the front for a few seconds, I walk in and the sound of the bell is the only thing to be heard. The shop is empty and I look around at the assortment of expensive knives and guns as well as cases and ammo. I approach the counter and wait for someone to come. In the corner of the ceiling there's a small TV playing some news. I watch as they talk about stock rates before switching to a wealthy family's business empire expanding over the east coast. I watch as a familiar face flashes across the screen. "Rafael Rodriguez the heir of the business empire is being charged with assault after starting a fight with an alleged rival."
"Nothing surprising there," a voice murmurs as I turn around and see the shopkeeper I'm assuming.
"You can say that again." I laugh, uneasy. So that was the guy from last night. Interesting. Hmmmmm..... very interesting hmmmmmmm.
"You're not a customer I would expect in a place like this." The guy says.
I don't reply, as I look at the display behind him.
"How can I help you?" he asks politely like a true gentleman charming prince of the rebellion who has come to rescue the poor damsel in distress that I am.
"I'd like to buy a knife of some sort," I reply, taking in his appearance; light brown hair and a slightly unshaven beard. He was attractive but looked like he had been through a lot.
"I want to buy a knife, something small that can be easily concealed."
"Any particular reason?" He pulls out a briefcase and snaps it open. Inside are an array of concealable knives. They ranged from small to medium but only one stood out. I lean forward and pick up a small dagger with a gorgeous hilt of engraved motifs.
I mime a striking position and watch from the corner of my eye as he conceals a grin.
"Now if your intent is to physically harm someone, I'm going to bet you're not going to do anything too damaging." He grins as I place the dagger onto the counter.
"How much?" I ask, toying with my fingers. He eyes me gingerly ginger nut.
"It's on the house."
"Really?" I ask knowing full well there wasn't anything but pills in my purse. ???????? okay mate chill
"It's all yours, just let me fill out a form for your purchase," idk what is happening I've never bought a knife.
I wait as he quickly fills out a piece of paper, listing the date of the said purchase ect.
He takes out a bag and places everything in before giving me a wink.
"See you soon...?"
"Sofia" I answered hesitantly.
"Adam." he replies with a suggestive smirk. i don't like this🤔
