The Me In You

Part 1: where it all started

it was a rainy day, I was crying, I was shaking, I was hesitating, i was standing on the bridge ledge trying to jump off the bridge that's when I meet Hitoshi. He was crossing the bridge I thought.

He saw me attempting to suicide, and he was smiling a little bit "how long have you been here?" I wanted to say "it's none of your business" but I ignored him and we stood there for like 40-50min. I was trying to jump while he was watching me and then he grabbed my hand and pulled me down. I fell onto him

"Ouch, you are heavy" He said.

“Who told you to grab my hand and pull me?” I retorted.

"Someone saw us just now, they might have thought I forced you to jump, I don't want to be a murderer, so can you at least tell me why are you trying to suicide"

[He lied]

"I don't have anywhere to live I left my house because I don't get along with my parents that's why I left my house to live with my boyfriend who is with another girl right now" I explained.

"What about your friends?"

"I don't have any friend who I can depend on"

He hesitated a lil bit "What if I told you to move into my house, of course you don't have to live there for free"

As I thought he is after my body "Listen mister, I am not that kind of wo-"

"You misunderstood me, you see i live alone so eventually i was planning to hire a maid to cook and clean the house, so I was saying if you are okay with cooking and cleaning the house"

[Hotoshi lied to her, again. If he didn't then she might have jumped or wondered around getting in troubled]

“How can I be sure you don’t have any weird ideas in your head?” I asked.

"I am not that kind of man"

"Ok where is it, Your house?"

"Can you see that, that's where i live" He pointed at the tall building

"By the way i am Hitoshi and you ar-"

"Anna" thats how our first conversation went.

He was very suspicious but since I don't have any other options, so I followed him. Of course I had a small knife in my pocket in case he tries anything funny and then we came to his place It was a 3BHK (3 bedroom, hall, kitchen) apartment. The first thing he told me that bedroom right beside the Sofa is prohibited you can't go in there. Then he started to explain me how things work and which room I will be staying in. I had a knife in my pocket until I was alone in my room.

After sometime he asked me if i want join for dinner or not. I haven't eaten since the morning, so I came out of my room. Of course, I had to put a knife in my pocket. He gave me food it was egg fried rice, he told me it was the only thing he can do because there was not much stock in the fridge I told him to eat first out of suspicious and He ate it and surprisingly there was nothing mixed in there. I stayed at his place with worrying he might do something to me but nothing happened. So...
