She looks at this older woman she look like she's about 50 years old She looks at her hands and they look as if she's worked her whole life with no complaints, that interest her for some reason. Maybe she's going to work? As I look at her well ironed white blouse with a dark blue pencil skirt. She loses interest, so She looks at this man but he's already staring at her. it's the man from her nightmare. It scares her so She gets off the bus 5 stops away from her school, She can feel those dark soulless eyes burning into her even when he's nowhere in sight. She feel a tap on her shoulder, She turn around and it's him suffocating her with a cloth as She drifts off to sleep...
