In that instant, everything and everyone began to move so slow.
I didn't know what was going on but one thing was for sure, if I didn't do something I would receive a vicious blow from Jake.
In a few tenths of a second, I stepped out of the way as quickly as possible, I wasn't prepared for this so I was clumsy and caught his ankle with my foot as I moved.
When I was finally out of his reach safely, time went back to normal and everything began moving in real-time again.
Jake tripped and fell over, knocking a few chairs to the floor as he did so, attracting the attention of everyone present in the room.
He shook his head quickly as if trying to process what just happened.
I walked up to him and offered him my hand, "you tripped and fell over, let me help you up."
He took my hand and I pulled him up close to me, and spoke into his ear. "If you ever try that again, I'll kick your head in," I said to him.
