PART 2

FEW DAYS LATER

After those near death experience, I decided not to come out at night, at least by myself. The same suggestion came from the authorities as I made a report on the next day.

The urge of shutting down my life from the outside world, from those horrible night and for my own life safety couldn’t hold any much longer. When the month is over, the new ones will come and the bills keep coming, I realized I had life to maintain. I have to make my living.

So today, as I strode my feet on the pavement through the crowd in the park, I tried my best to put my senses to the max, for only one reason-to keep me alive.

One thing that still linger in my mind was the reason behind the attack. If I was a target, then why he keep me alive. Was that a threat attempt, for what? Oh and not to forget, why me? the motives, because I’m nobody, I’m just an ordinary college girl who’s trying to keep my grades still intact in the best way if I don’t want they re-think about the scholarship, while I have to get some money to keep my tabs paid from week to week.

I was in my reverie when I walked out from the park down to the street and it was late afternoon when I reached intersect. Suddenly I felt something yanked me in the waist and round me up hardly into the alley with my face merely inch from the wall.

I screamed but it muted by those hands wrapped in my mouth.

“Don’t scream and I’ll release my hand of your mouth, do you understand?” The man stated briskly.

Those same voice, I noted. Though the smelt so different from I remembered. Those images repeating in my head. The husky voice-deep tone, knife in my neck, the mint and the warmth of the woods keeps hit me right in front of my eyes.

“Do you hear me? I will not repeating myself!” His tone was so cold, bring me out of it I nodded. It’s not like that I had other choice.

“So listen..don’t make a sudden move, we both know the consequence of the reckless deed”

“I won’t hurt you..” he continued. I nodded again, then he lowered his hand far from my mouth but still hold my body in steady position.

“What – do – you – want?” My voice cracking but it had more confident than before.

“If you want my money, go ahead take it. It is in my purse, please let me go...” I pleaded. My bag and the insides were clattering on the ground. In the corner of my eyes, I saw the pepper spray rolling around, it seem tried to mock me. So much help from those life saver thing in my situation right now. So next time please remembered me, to keep those thing in my pocket not in my bag that make it now so useless.

“Hush..” He shush me.

My mind kept racing for the possibilities that may or may have not be the reason behind this. But when he tried to shush me, his breath fanning in my cheek and I felt something weird, the funny kind of weird hit my nostrils.

Those smell, I recognized it, so much different from those minty and woodish kind even I was sure he was the same person from before. The smelt now, it was less intimidating, it was more relaxing?
