One night when I was sitting on my couch watching television I heard a knock on my door. When I went to see who was knocking on the door it was a man, specifically the pizza delivery guy. He handed me my pizza and walked away very.....cautiously. I went to sit down on my couch but before I could even sit down I heard another knock on the door...It was the guy again.... We quickly locked eyes and he said to me ..."You didn't pay" so I handed him the money and he got in his car and left.
Later...when I finished my pizza and was taking a shower I heard running sounds in the hallway....So I quickly put on my robe and looked in the hallway. There were no signs of someone being there so I continued on to my room and closed the door behind me. I put on my pajamas and started listening to music. A few minutes later my best friend Jaime called me. She tells me she had seen someone coming from my backyard from her house but I don't believe her so I tell her goodnight and I hang up.
I started to listen to more music on my speakers when I see the trees rustling ...now I was paranoid because of what my bestie just told me...so I turned off my music and started to sleep. I was disturbed when I heard a big boom coming from downstairs. I thought my mother probably dropped something so I put my slippers on and ran downstairs to see what had happened. When I reached the last few steps I seen my mother tied up in a chair with duck tape on her mouth and a male's shadow in the light. I ran back up the stairs but I could feel someone behind me but luckily I got into my room and closed the door. I called 911 but before I could tell them anything the masked man busted through my door.... He threw me on the bed and tried to stab me on my neck but I grabbed his hand.
Meanwhile, I did not know the 911 call was still going but they were able to find my location and come before any damage was done. The only bad thing was that he had escaped exactly before they came so I wasn't able to see where he had went. The detectives asked me everything that happened that night and I told them every detail except the phone call with my friend. I thought that would be an important detail.....but I couldn't say anything...I guess I was too afraid.
