I couldn't believe that last 6-7 hours changed my life completely. It made me a thief. I didn't feel any good walking out of Marilyn's house. But my intentions were positive. Iam just trying to survive.

I was sitting on the ground behind Marilyn's house, watching the sunset. She was taking a nap and luckily I was still alive. The backyard of her house was best for me to spend the night. She lives alone. So it was easy for me to stay here. All the other houses had atleast two people.
The night was cold. Thankfully the sweater helped me out. I miss my soft bed and comfortable life.

When I was lying down I heard something "....to find her. I'm sure she is in this town. Where else she can be? So the moment you see her, finish her" this was a familiar voice. "Don't you worry. She ain't gonna live..."

I was frozen. They were the murderers. It was me about whom they made a promise to kill. Damn it! I don't have anymore hope. Tomorrow can be my last day. But I don't want to die. I don't see any of my fault in this. I know I have to die, but I never thought it will be this way. Anyways, I can have some sleep tonight. Maybe my last one.

8 days later..

But my death did not come, not atleast for next eight days. I hid myself, fooled them and tried my best. I got my reward, my life. Yeah I was alive. But surviving till now wasn't easy. Every second make me feel that the next is my last. All I had was me, my clothes, Marilyn's bottle and a little bit of luck.

Yeah, I thought of suicide, but I don't want to give up. Afterall I didn't struggle nine day for dying.

Today is a bright day and the only day when I noticed that the road near the forest was empty for me to go. Usually those four lunatics wander around this place. Finally, I'm going. It's way back to my home!

I started walking towards the forest when I heard someone suddenly "Hey, no use sweetheart. We have blocked you. You can't run anymore".... Oh no!!!
