Part 01

(Emma)

It has been raining since forver. I am waiting for it to stop under a shade of tree thinking it could save me from getting wet and look like a drenched cat. Its 7 pm I was supposed to get back home at 5:00 . Actually I was at the bakery my friend's aunt Rose helping her.I just went with my friend lucy at her shop and found rose looking really tired since I am very good at baking I decided to help the poor lady.I didnt have anything better than this to do at home.I am an orphan and have no one in the whole world except lucy. I work at a library and I met lucy and we clicked at the very moment. I am 5'7 .I know I m tall but sometimes I think its very tall. I have brown eyes ,high cheek bones which I think are too high for my liking and black and brownish hair. I know its kinda weird but my hair are black from the roots and then they are brown . They are double shaded. I find it very weird but dont know the reason I havnt died my hair ever so they must me natural. I am not skinny
I think I have some extra pounds but I cant help it bcz I do gain wait very quickly. I love reading books and helping people with a great passion.its feels really good after helping someone. I cant refuse to help someone .

Finally the rain has stopped . Its not like I dont like rains but today I am not in a mood to get drenched in it. I just wanna get under the warm covers of my bed and sleep forever .

As I was walking down the street I heard a gunshot . I was scared endlessly but decided to go and check if someone was injured and needed help. Just as I got there I saw a man laying on the ground with a pool of blood around him. Tears started running down my cheeks thinking about the pain he had to bear and thinking about his family. I rushed near him and crouched down beside him to check his pulse hoping he was alive but he was dead. I coudnt control the sobs that escaped my mouth. I have never witnessed a dead body infront of me like this ever in my life. I turned away from him to get my phone from my bag to call the cops which I have dropped behind me. As I turned I saw a man a very tall man staring staright at me. I got some strange vibes from him. But then I saw blood dripping from his hand.
"You 'r hurt" I said looking at his hand . He didnt said anything but kept staring at me. I was scared of him but decided to help him.I walked very slowly towards him and said "your hand needs to be treated". He didnt utter a word and kept on staring at me without any emotion. I then myself took his hand in my hand amd drag him a bit farther away in the moonlight so that the wound could be visible. I told him to sit down but he didnt showed any movement. I then took of my scarf and looked up at him to find him nowhere in sight. Just as I was about to turn and call the cops to inform them about the poor man who was shot I saw him sitting under a tree. It has again started raining. I decided to help him first and then call the cops. I went near him and crouched down infront of him. I can now have a better look of his face. He was very handsome but his eyes were so cold and emotionless that made me shudder with fear but I had to help him. I carefully took his hand in mine and examined his hand. There was a cut and it was very deep . I have to cover it with my scarf to prevent excess loss of blood but he must get it treated in a hospital. As I was taking of my scarf I heard him talk "whats your name?". I looked up at him and sluttered " Em.. Emma Summers" because of his intense staring. Then I decided to start a conversation with him to remove the awkwardness. "Whats your name?" I asked him . He didnt answer me and kept on staring. I was hurt. How can someone be so rude. I decided to hurry up with covering his hand and get going. I was folding my scarf around his hand when I heard him say "Do you even realize what are u doing?" His voice was so manly that it made me shiver. But I didnt look up at him and answered him " I am helping u ".
"U dont know me" he said. I looked up at him and said " thats not important. You are injured and I must help you"
He moved a little forward and stared straight into my eyes and said " you would help me even if I tell you that I am the one who shot that guy "
