Recovering Love

Part 32

On my way I saw the guy Carla was with yesterday.
And I think he remembered me because he kept looking at me.
I just kept walking without making any eye contact.
Before I know it I realize he's been following me all this time. My heart starts palpitating fast. Should I run or just keep walking like nothing's happening? I could hear his footsteps getting closer. I started running as fast as I could and didn't look back, I ran for 6 minutes straight without stopping until I couldn't anymore. I looked back to catch the guy still running towards me. I couldn't run anymore or breath, I then saw Frankie running towards me and I felt a little bit of relive. He hugged me and asked me what was wrong.
"What's wrong nay" he said
I guess I didn't realize I was hysterically crying my eyes out.
"The gu- guy, ov- over...over there" I said not being able to talk
"What guy, there's no guy. Here let's go inside my house" he said
He hugged me once more and took me in his house, I glanced back one more time but there was no guy. Was I dreaming or did he hide?
"Okay now tell me what's wrong" Frankie said helping me sit on the couch
"I was walking and remember the guy Carla was with?" I asked
"Yeah" he answered
"Well he was following me and then I started running and he started chasing me" I said
"When I saw you standing there, there was no guy after you" he said
"He was probably hiding, you have to believe me Frankie" I said still crying
"I believe you" he said
| 5 days later |
"Mom I'll be back later" I said
"Where are you going?" She asked
"I'm going to go get some California Donuts" I answered
"By yourself" she said
" no, I'm going to meet Frankie there" I said
"Why didn't he pick you up" she said
"His car still doesn't work"
"Oh ok well be safe"
I left my house and made my way to California Donuts.
On my way I caught sight of the same darn guy from the other day.
I started speed walking until I felt some grab my arm and held a white napkin on my noise. That's the last thing I remember.
Frankie's POV:
I was waiting for a cool 15 minutes and I was starting to get worried.
