The savior Saida

Chapter 3 : Im Nayeon

Sana POV :

"WILL SOMEONE STOP HIM FOR GOD JIHYO'S SAKE"

After hearing those cries, someone dressed in black hoodie and mask pushed past us running at full speed. I immediately let go of my shopping bags and started running after them. Shit they were fast, but for the past month I've been hanging around this mall every single day, no one knows it better than I do, certainly not a low-life thief. As I see them make a right turn I know that I'll reach the nearest exit if I take the second next right turn but I have to run faster. I see them a little behind me accross the next intersection, I'm ahead that's good. They'll have to make a slight left turn just as I'll come up to the exit. In a matter of seconds I turn right and see the thief heading for the exit. If I don't hurry they'll get through the doors before I can get to them. I'm now running at full speed while they slowed down right before the doors. What a basic fucking mistake. I however don't slow down and tackle them at my fastest.

We are now struggling on the ground as they try to push me off of them. I manage to push their shoulders to the ground but they got a punch to my left side. I suddenly flinch feeling my old wounds have not completely healed ... They take the opportunity and throw a punch to my jaw. NOT MY FUCKING FACE YOU ASSHOLE. I'M SO PISSED I COULD FUCKING KILL THEM NOW. But I hear police sirens approaching our location. I look straight into their eyes, rip their mask off... God this boy must be 15 at most... Poverty is raging here... My fist was in the air ready to strike but ... I can't do it ... he's so young ... He's looking at me with terror in his eyes.

"WHY DID YOU STEAL THAT WOMAN'S BAG" i yell at him.

"for appa's medicine he has high fever and I don't know what to do" he said his terror turning into despair.

I lift him up stil holding tightly onto his shirt and say calmly "I'm sorry but I can't let you go ... stealing is never the answer"

"Please" he begs "I won't do it again I promise"

"I can't I'm sorry" I pick the woman's bag and drag him outside delivering him to the police. One policeman looks at me and says "That's very brave what you did there miss, do you know if the woman wants to press charges ?"

I reply unsure "I haven't got a clue let me go get her to tell her the thief has been taken into custody"

"If she wants to press charges tell her to head down to the police station, he'll be there overnight if no adult picks him up, and if by twelve tomorrow no one has pressed charges we will be legally forced to let him go"

"Sure thing officer" I say smiling as i head back towards the jewelry store. Jisoo, Jennie, Lisa and Rosie come running towards me all of them yelling at me "ARE YOU MAD CHASING A THIEF" "YOU COULD HAVE GOTTEN HURT" "WHAT IF HE HAD A WEAPON" "WHAT IF THERE WERE MORE THAN ONE WAITING OUTSIDE" "OH MY GOD YOUR JAW IS BRUISED"

I push them off of me as they are suffocating me and say out of breath "Guys chill, it's all good, I'm not hurt and I retrieved the stolen bag so everything is okay"

"You got him?" We hear a small voice say.

I push past my friends towards the girl who just spoke a bright smile on my face and her bag in my hand. "I did here you go" handing the bag to her.

"Wow thank you so much there are things with so much value in there you have NO idea how relieved I am" She exclaims with tears in her eyes jumping into my arms to give me a warm hug. "You're my savior" she says softly as I feel warm tears rolling on my bare shoulder.

"It really is no problem. The arresting officer said you should head to the station if you want to press charges against the boy, but ... I urge you not to... he was just a desperate boy who made a really stupid mistake."
