The Break In

Shit. Shit. Shit.

Some creepy ass dude just broke into ma house, what the fuck should I do??? I did call the police, they said they're on their way.

"Ray~ Open the door~" he knocked a little. I didn't say a word. Dang it! I should have stayed back at Marcus' house.

"Ray I know you're in there~" now he got a little impatient.

"OPEN THE FU*KING DOOR YOU KID!!!!!" Now he was banging on the door like a psychopath.

I didn't have time to waste, I had to think of something before this nuthead breaks the door. I looked around to see if I could find anything, Yes! Pepper spray! 

"Okay fine I'll open the door but you have to do what I say, if you do I'll go anywhere with you." It was kinda stupid, but it did work.

"You better not play any games with me kid" he said.

"No I won't I promise." Obviously I lied. "Just put down whatever weapons you have, we'll be equal." I said not quite trusting him to do so. So just in case, I took a baseball bat with me.

"Yeah I put it down." 

"You sure?"

"Yeah now open up!" He yelled.

"Ok" I opened in 3....2....1 *Bam* I sprayed the pepper on his face and and knocked him on his nuts, I was right he didn't keep his weapons down, so he managed to cut me.

"Ahhhh..you b*@#£ you &@-## m@#£*&%r" a list of swear words came out of his mouth as the pepper blinded his eyes. I got pissed cause he used the knife when I told him to keep his weapons down, so I smashed his head with the baseball and knocked him to the floor. Well that was smooth.

 I bent down to to get a closer look at his face and bro I was shocked, it was the same guy who came up to me at the café and started talking to me. He also was always around when I'm outside of my house, the last time I saw him was at the grocery store the day before. And I also let them know about the text messages I received before this happened.

Just the the cops came, they took that guy on a stretcher to take him to the hospital, they took me to the living room to do some questioning. They asked if I had seen him before and it told them that I would always see him around me when I was outside. They told me he was a Wanted Criminal, he had raped and molested many girls and women, they also mentioned that they were able to come faster because, a few minutes before he broke in to my house he had broken into another house of the same building, where he murdered the man who lived there.

As soon as I heard that, chills ran down my spine, I was triggered by what happened, they said that the reason I was able to knock him down was because I distracted him by speaking to him. I'm so proud of myself right now. One of the cops said that they'd get back to me once they gather more information.

Just as they were about to leave, Patrick showed up. "Wow Patrick what a great timing" Note the sarcasm.

"Wait can anybody tell me what's going on?" He was clueless.

"Ray, please explain it to him" a cop told me."What a great guardian you have." He chuckled. And they left.

"Seriously Patrick? Look at the time its 3 in the morning, where were you?" I asked.

"I was out with my friends, now tell me, was it a robbery?" He asked.

"Dude it was a murder." I said.

"Who got murdered?!!" He was shook. Then it took half an hour for me to explain everything to him.

The next day I got up at 10 in the morning, I freshened up and went to the kitchen to brew some coffee, all that happened last night seem like a dream I just couldn't process any of it.

I saw Patrick getting ready for work, "Morning Ray, I'm sorry I can't take a day off, my boss said he'd fire me if I did." 

"It's Ok" It was a Friday so didn't have work, my shifts are every alternate days, and thank god for that.

"But I did ask your neighbour to keep an eye on you." He did what?

"You...asked him to look after me!" Is he out of his mind!

"I know you don't like him, but he seems to be a nice guy. I have to keep you in save hands. Ok I'm getting late, 'bye Ray of Hope." He dashed off before I could say anything, 'Safe hands' it seems, I mocked him.

I was having popcorn and watching Netflix when someone rang the door bell, I knew who it was.

"Hey Ray I'm sorry about yesterday, please forgive me, I shouldn't have said that." He said as he knocked the door. I should forgive him, and give him another chance. I went ahead and opened the door.

"Yes?" I raised my eye brow.

"I said I'm sorry about yesterday, see I got you Subway." He said as he held up a package from Subway. "You like it don't you?"

"How did you....." My voice trailed off, knowing what he did.

"Instagram." He smiled. I chuckled, for some reason this guy made me feel comfortable.

"Wanna watch some Netflix?" I asked as we walked towards the couch.

"What are we watching?" He asked eagerly.

"Stranger Things." I replied.

"Woaah I really wanna watch it." 

"Wait you haven't watched it yet?" I asked.

"Nope I was busy re-watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S." he replied.

"What? Seriously? Friends? Now?" This boi is so weird.

"Don't judge me." He said

"What else do you expect me to do?"

We were busy watching Stranger Things, when I received a phone call, it was from the cops.

 They said that the man had intentions of sexually harassing me, and some other terrible stuff, they told me about the text messages that I had mentioned, but it weren't from the man, they said they'll keep an eye on the area and keep me updated.

The phone call ended and Marcus asked-

"Hey is there a problem?" Like seriously bruh.

"Have you been living under a rock?" I said "Where were you last night after I left?"

"Sleeping" 

"No wonder" I replied.

Just the I received a text message. It was the guy who texted me last night.
