I never really thought, a ordinary day going through the busy streets of Yorkshire city,would be a life changing experience.

I was walking down casually on a hot summers day, the sun glared itself harshly against the enormous black windows of the offices , bouncing of painful bright rays of light and heat . Each building had its own unique structure and build. I have always wondered how people had it in there will to create such amazing sculptures from a blank canvas, everything amazes me till this very day; however I have not still found all the fascinating features of the world yet.

Walking pass a wall of windows I stared at my reflection and saw a girl with long curly and wavy brunette hair, with brown eyes and plum rosy lips. I never really wore any make up I didn't feel the need to cake up all the time, I liked it natrual. I had a slim yet average body, with slightly tan yet fair skin tone.

The black concrete tarmac layed upon the filthy roads, creating a path, to my fate everyday is always a mystery to be solved. To be revealed by yourself.

I was glad it was the last day of university, before we break up for our easter holidays tomarrow, can't wait to just get back to my lethargic state and just watch Netflix;as cliché as it sounds it's true.

I took slow steps taking my time getting to the train station, I still had a good 30 minutes before the departure of the train. I decided to have a stroll around the quite and more peaceful surroundings of these streets, to make up the time and have time to think through on life.

I was walking pass a row of houses with greenery and nature engulfing it in it's hold, I loved the greenery. I have always liked nature, the beautiful rich colours, there significant beauty all so mesmerising, the scent of each unique flower and shape has so much beauty within its self. Which is taken by granted by others nowadays.

Making my way around the maze like streets, now all so familiar to me,was easy to solve. I made my way to the coffee shop that I went to often,when I had time.

It was a small café bar, with warm soft nude and cream colours surrounding it. As I entered, the strong aroma of coffee beans welcomed me in, filling my nostrils with the sweet smell, sniffing ever so often to satisfy myself with hunger. Wooden chairs and tables for two's and four's were scattered across the floor, the theme held a woodland surrounding with its bold oak and wood furniture, adding in a hint of a vintage feel to it.

I went to the front desk and greeted Linda, an adorable old lady made her way to me, and with a warm smile and a welcoming voice said "Oh Roseline dear! How are you?".

With a smile I replied "I'm great thanks.. but really tired". I laughed a little to make it sound lighter.

" It must be those exams and all the hard work you're putting in love. So what can I get you today? A white choco mocha?". She said as she gave a comforting expression, and asked the usual question; however she already knew the answer to it.

With a light hearted laugh I replied " yup the regular".

Minutes later Linda bought the mocha to my hands, the warmth radiating heat to my cool hands. It was still a little chilli even though it's April, well this is British weather.

I walked out the warm shop, the warmth leaving me as I did so and was welcomed by the cold. Walking down the empty streets was a great way to relieve stress and bring peace to my mind.

As I was strolling around I noticed a figure following me closely, you could tell by his physique he was a male; as he had a muscular build. He was glancing my way often. Although I didn't want to think of it much, you always hear horrendous tragic incidents that happens ever so often. It has left me paranoid to think that the same will happen to me. My mind was saying run the other was blank. Taking in further observations I noticed a sleek black van parked at the end of the quite street. I wondered whether the van was linked in any way to him.
