I went downstairs
Adam was sitting on the couch with his elbows on his knees staring at the window in deep thoughts.

He turned his face towards my direction when he noticed me
I sat on the sofa facing him

"So what do you want to tell me?"I asked losing my patience.
He took a deep breath and started talking

"A year ago while I was going back home from work I parked my car and got out

it was then when I noticed a small beautiful figure with long wavy brown hair she wore a big sweater of the color grey and loose boyfriend jeans,walking towards a bookshop at the corner.

I couldn't help but follow her"he stops and smiles at me

"After what it feels like 15 minutes she was already having probably like 10 books in one hand and searching for more using the other hand ,

she was just irresistible and so different
After that day I got attached to her I
know that sounds weird because who would get attached to a stranger?

but I felt like I needed her in my life I watched her every single day for the past year and I was sure about one thing. "He

stopped once again but now with in a serious tone" She's mine, her body her smile her smell everything is mine "He said

"Wow "I said laughing nervously
"And where is she now"i asked afraid of the
answer .
"She's sitting here in front of me"he said smirking
Adam

I saw her expression turn from nervous to scared.
She got up backed away from me and ran up to her room
I followed her

"Charisma open the door please"i said banging on the door
No answer
"Charisma! "I shouted "open the damn door!"I said starting to get angry I am afraid that she will hurt herself

"If you don't open this fucking door now I am breaking it!"
Still no fucking answer!

"Fine .one.two.three.four.four and a half.five."
I broke the door and it fell on the floor
I couldn't find her at first but then I did she sat in the corner of the room curled in a small ball

I started to get closer but she broke down" don't come any closer!"she said not even looking in my eyes
"Charisma I promise I won't hur-"walking towards her

"please don't get any closer"she whispered more like to herself
I walked to her leaned over so we were in the Same level "Charisma, listen to me I will never hurt you"i said as soon as I my hand touch her

face to caress her cheek she pushed me away and placed her hands on her ears rocking back and forth

Repeating the words "don't get closer do-n't get closer don't hurt me"over and over again

I hate seeing her this way more like hating myself for getting her in that position, she was for sure having a panick attack I tried my best not to get nervous

Once a friend of mine suffered from panick attacks for few years and these years I've learned how I could help them .
You need to Stay with the person and keep calm.

And to Move the person having a panic attack to a quiet place.  Ask.Speak to the person in short, simple sentences.
"Come on Charisma you can do this"
"It's gonna be alright"
"You are a strong person, you can get through this"

"I'll help you" she stopped rocking back and forth but her breathing was still so fast another thing that I've learned is Helping slow the person's breathing by breathing with him or her or by counting slowly to 10 so I did that.

After a couple of minutes her breathing went back to normal, she sat there staring at the floor with tears on her cheeks and forming in her eyes .

I got up carried her in bridal style and placed her quietly on the bed.i kissed her for head and sat on the couch in front of the bed watching her beautiful sleepy face
she really scared me, I was afraid of losing her.
