She was walking on the park that is strangely quite. No one is walking there, not even a single car on the road. Not until her eyes catches a movement from the bench on the other side of the park.
'a person.'
Something inside her told her to go after that guy so she did. She was running but somehow she never get to reach that person; but she never stop.
All of the sudden that person stand up and look at her with a sad expression. It's a little girl, probably on the age of 12, with her puffed eyes and a eye-catching red wavy hair.
'she must've been crying, but why?'
Out of nowhere a guy creeps from that girl's back, he doesn't look like he got a good intention. She tried to shout so that she could warn her but nothing came out from her mouth.
That guy started to hug her from behind which got no respond from that kid and so his hand begin to travel somewhere her eyes can't see. Tears started to form in her eyes making her vision blurry. She started to run again but still she couldn't reach her.
Too focus on helping that kid, she didn't realize that there's a rock in front of her that make her stumble and fall. She cover her face with her arm while squeezing her eyes close but when she opened it, she's on another person's point of view; she's on that kid's.
She was still processing what happen but the cold-rough hand snapped her from her thought and so she begin to fight back. Moving her body, she try to push him off of her but she can't he is too strong. As she was struggling to free herself from his touch, she found her voice back and so she scream as loud as she can, until that man called out her name.
"Alexa..."
"Alexa.."
"Alexa. what a pretty name it is, really suits your body-"
Then that voice is replaced by a familiar one, "Alexa? Alexa, wake up!!"
Taking a deep breath she opened her eyes. Still panic but when she saw her friend, she begin to break down, loudly, didn't care about those eyes around her she just cried. Not sure why, either it is because she missed her or because she is relieved that she is out from that nightmare.
or was it really a nightmare?
