Dear Diary,

There are some days for which you wish that never gets over and then there are others that you loathe to get through; and that day my friend, is Today.

It has officially been four days after 'the incident' and couldn't be more cautious about my surroundings. As I walked back home after getting my ass up, I realised that that hoe of a person had taken my cell. I cursed as I continued to walk back home in my blood stained shirt that night. Scratch that, It was more like I limped my way back.

I could still feel the touch.

I got on the elevator and just as I pressed button to floor no.14, a man rushed up to get in.

He was dressed in black- black sleeves, black robe,black bag and a black stick-which looked unusual. Staring at his watch-which also happens to be black- as though he was about to miss the most important event in his life, he quickly pressed the button to the 10th floor.

I tipped my pretentious sun hat-which by the way, I was wearing on a rainy day- down and tried to avoid looking at the man in front of me. I fumbled with my wrist watch and instead focused on the ads that were displayed on the walls of the elevator.

Breaking the silence, the man asked me if I live in the building. I gave a slight shake of the head saying no.

"Just moved in?" I asked. "Not really I've been here ul and about" said eying me from bottom to top.He gave a smile and nodded. When the elevator stopped at his floor, he said " see you around Miss,- "Rose" said I, letting him know my name. He gave me a playful smile and said "Bye Miss. Rose, Totsiens"

And he was out.

It took me a while to figure out what he has said to me and eventually I found out that Totsiens meant 'until we meet again in Latin'

It sort of felt familiar.

And then it stuck me - totsiens

"This is for you, my precious"

I remember.

"Don't do it, please" my eyes wet and legs shivering.

He held a scythe along the back of my head.

"Face the fear or let the fear face you, little girl" He was giving me the same smile he did in the elevator except this time it was filed with evil and darkness.

"Totsiens, precious"

And my mind blacked out as the curtain of life fell.
