The shadows that were stalking me, were now closer. I could hear their footsteps and feel their presence itching closer at every step they took. I push myself back up into a sitting position, sliding back to hide in the shadows. Just as they are about to come into view, someone comes from behind and closes my lips and before I realize what is going on, I am seated at the building opposite, the feminine hand still very much on my lips.
Did she just save me? Or did my stalker just catch up with me?
I turned quickly to find out who it was that held her palm firm to my lips. I wasn't able to turn very well to capture her face, but I caught sight of her long black hair. Could it be Aurora? As much as I hoped it would be her, it sounded like a joke to me.
