FORTUNATELY, Althea was able to fetch me in the mall after some minutes of walking without thinking of where will I go. Waiting for her felt like eternity and it made my feet hurt because I didn’t stop walking, thinking that the person inside the fake police car will follow me.

Althea sent a message to me. She said that she will meet me at the entrance of the parking lot that connects to the second floor of the mall. I hurriedly, somehow acting cool, walk towards that destination.

When I can already see her wearing a nude tight shirt and jogging pants, I waved at her and shouted her name. She looked at my direction and ran towards me.

“Are there any suspicious person behind me?” I asked her while locking our arms.

She simply looked at my back. “No one on your 1 meter radius. Beyond that? Huh, I can’t see them clearly.”

I turned my head to her and realized something. “You’re not wearing your glasses?” I asked.

“You’re asking the obvious,” she responded while furrowing her eyes.

“How about contact lenses?” I asked again, moving my head near to her so I can see if there are changes on her eye color.

“None. I was in a hurry,” she answered as she opened her car door on the passenger seat.

I got in of the car immediately and fasten my seat belt while waiting for her to get in.

“Are you sure you can drive? You can’t see well without glasses or contact lenses,” I asked her nervously.

She just chuckled. Here I am, nervous that we might meet an accident. She has blurry eyesight! The road is somehow dark! I’m sure she can’t see well.

“I will drive,” I said while trying to touch the steering wheel. Instead of letting me drive, she slapped my hand!

“Nah, don’t touch my baby,” she said while wiping the part that I touched, as if I spread an infectious disease on it. “I’m the only one who can drive this beauty.”

I was dumbfounded. Wow. She will really prioritize the matter about who will drive her car over our safety.

“I’m not doubting your driving skills, but I’m doubting your eyesight. We’re gonna die if you’ll drive this car,” I said while widening my eyes because she already started driving away from the parking space.

She just swayed her head to the side and answered without looking at me. “I got here safe, so we can also get home safe. If we met a crash, then it’s your fault,” she replied and followed it with an ugly laugh.

“How it became my fault? I’m not the one driving?’ I exclaimed at her face.

“Maybe because you’re unlucky,” she answered and stuck tongue out at me.

I squinted my eyes at her. “Oh, really? How did I become unlucky, Ms. Althea? Mind explaining?”

She focused her eyes on the road. “First, you were kidnapped during your vacation,” she started explaining. Oh, I know where this is going.

“Second, someone is hunting you. Third, that person already knows where you lived. And another one, a fake police car followed you,” she stopped for a moment before continuing her speech. “Now, tell me if that’s not unlucky.”
