Never A Saint (COMPLETE)

Four: Danika Reeves

I knew someone was stalking me.

I was so right.

I trembled with fear as I was in my apartment complex parked.

I locked my doors and removed my keys from the ignition.

I didn't park by my apartment. I parked somewhere else.

Misleading them my exact place.

This white, Chevy SUV parked a few spaces over.

My phone lit up.

Unknown: Get inside your house.

Me: Who is this?

I didn't give my number to anyone.

My mind was spinning, my stomach was whirling.

Unknown: Let's not ask questions that don't matter. Get inside of your apartment. No one will touch you.

I blocked the number, calling 911 before my phone died and I nearly cried.

I looked out my left window and the car was still on and still parked.

I looked in front of me, observing a silhouette beside the apartment.

One of these men was out to get me. One was claiming to help.

But I have no idea.

I decided to breathe. Take my keys and purse, remove my heels.

I opened the door. The white car did the same, mirroring me.

The silhouette came out a bit further.

I sucked in a breath, locked my car, and sprinted to my apartment that fortunately was on the bottom floor.

I heard three echoing gunshots, flinching with every single one.

But I was inside.

I locked the doors, sobbing, plugging in my phone, then looking out the window in that direction.

The silhouette was gone.

The white car was flashing in alert.

And a man was dead on the floor right beside it.

Holy shit.

-

I couldn't sleep.

Obviously.

The police did show up.

But I doubt the silhouette man was getting caught.

I went to the number and unblocked him.

Me: You should be in jail for murder.

Me: Why were you there?

Impulse.

Probably not smart.

But after about 5 minutes my phone buzzed.

Unknown: You're safe. So why are you complaining?

Me: Because I've had a stalker for a very long time.

Unknown: How terrible.

Me: it's you isn't it?

Unknown: No.

I frowned at my screen.

Unknown: Go about your life as you usually do. All you have to know is no one will ever harm you.

Me: Playing guardian angel hm?

Unknown: I'm no angel.

Me: Am I predicted to grow old or die before that point?

Unknown: My rose, as long as you do as I ask of you, I don't see why you won't live till that point.

Me: so you are my stalker?

Unknown: I'm whatever you want me to be.

Me: I want you to leave me alone.

Unknown: You texted first.

Me: I want you to stop stalking me.

Unknown: Or else what?

Me: I'll tell police.

Unknown: I'll kill every one of them. Try me.

Me: Will you hurt me too?

Unknown: If you don't listen or follow my rules.

Me: Rules?

Unknown: Goodnight Dani. Sleep well.
