Peering onto the fatal sight that lies a block ahead of her, Amanda slows down and swiftly turns her petit body to the opposite direction.
Assuring herself that she has kept to the quietude she had found.

What if someone saw her witness it all? Would she be next too? She needs to leave- urgently.

Her wide strides make her even more anxious. Sprinting seems better for a chance to escape but if she runs like a deer away from a predator someone would think she knows something.

Eventually, she prefers the former.

Clutching her cheap fur lined bag to her sides, Amanda convulsively shivers in fear. The warmth her pacing gives her is not enough to condense the piercing fear that rises with each stride she takes.

"Wouldn't it be humane to call the police?", questions a husky yet undisturbed voice from her rear.

Her steps cease as her feet stiffen and weirdly clasp to the ground like a frog on a raining day- what a betrayal.
Her eyes bulge expectedly in terror and sudden discernment. A trait she lacked earlier on.

If only she had called the police.
