After breaking up with her boyfriend, Alana is spiraling downward in life. She has to keep up with her main job, odd jobs here and there, and earn enough money to pay the rent for her apartment.

Receiving yet another odd job, she meets a man that will change her life. But will it be for the better, or worse?

-------

"You know you're being really creepy right?" Alana pressed her lips into a thin line as she laid down the large plate of food in front of the distracted man.

She wasn't afraid to be blunt, it was very creepy the way he stared at her while she was working. 

"Are you okay?" She nudged him in the shoulder after she set her other tray on his table. Just as she was about to pull away, he grabbed her wrist.

"What's wrong with you?!?" Alana winced at his grip, trying desperately to escape his grasp.

"Let. Go!" Alana shrieked, "I was only trying to help!" 

"STOP!" The voice made her shiver, but for once since this whole mess started, she felt like she was saved.
