Absentmindedly I find myself taking out my phone only to just stare down at the screen. It's 10:36am. I take a deep breath of fresh air looking around the lush park knowing I'm finally getting a break from my hellish college classes, at least for awhile and deciding to use my free time wisely I take a walk with pukki.
After a while of playing with him I fasten his leash on, and fling my phone out putting it to good use I snap selfie after selfie, with pukki and many single shots of him. We both head home soon after. Closing the door I laugh wryly to myself, I tend to not curse much but God, my house was shit. Suddenly I felt like I was carrying the entire world on my shoulders I drag my feet to the kitchen and make sure to feed pukki after double checking I had done enough I grabbed some snacks for myself and hurry to flop onto my bed. I scroll through the pictures I had taken and send my best friend the ones I deemed the best.
Tossing aside my phone I wash up for the night and return to see 5 new notifications from Min-Song. I'm confused at first "Natty u should see these again.." the text read along with the pictures that I sent her earlier, but this time they have red circles highlighting certain spots in the photo. My curiosity peaked, I zoom in and notice that there is a camera pointing towards me in every picture. I scroll to the last picture, it's the selfie I took of me and pukki. My friend circled a spot in the background. I felt the color draining from my face. A man was taking pictures of us. A fair, tall man in a dull pink sweater and black pants. Not only that but the camera he was using was a really good one. Like he's been doing this for awhile now.
My throat went dry at the realization that he spent the entire time taking pictures of me and I hadn't even noticed.
