"Crystal, wait!"
I rushed off towards the train station and hid among the crowd. I peered above the towering heads. He looked around for a moment, then saw me.
"Crystal, stop!"
I ran off towards the train. The crowd thinned out.
"Back off, kid!"
The words felt like rocks in my mouth. I was shaking, not because I was scared, but because I was mad.
How could he...
I turned around, my heels at the edge of the train platform. I heard the animated voices turn into whispers.
"Crystal, be careful..."
He walked up to me slowly. His hand just barely an inch away from my shoulder.
"I said back off!"
I took another step back, but fell. My back hit the hard railing of the railroad. The pain blurred my vision. I remembered hearing it. The train coming.
Whispers turned to screams.
"Crysta-"
