His Change of Heart

First Encounter

I was walking on the school corridor when someone approached me.

"Hey Lewis." A guy that I never met in my life just approached me.

I removed my earphones then look at him.

"Who are you?" I asked.

A men nearby were suddenly shout as if they were make fun of the guy who approached me.

The guy in front of me smile shyly at me. I saw his ear turn red.

"Aaaahm.. I-I was just want to k-know if you are free l-later?" He stuttered.

"I'm sorry but yes. I have plan later." I turned him down without hesitation.

After that, I put back may earphone and listen to Taylor Swift's Look what you made me do.

I'm a fan of her since day 1. Every story that was told in her songs was just so beautiful.

"Wait." I felt someone hold me on my elbow.

"What?" I asked him with irritation on my voice.

"I'm sorry but how about tomorrow?" He said. I can hear hopeful in his voice.

I really hate when someone just approached me on the street. Especially when I don't know that someone.

Instead to turned him down again I get his cellphone that he is holding and typed my number then click call.

I heard my cellphone ring before I ended the call from his phone.

"Wait for my call." I told him.

I actually don't have any plan to call or txt him. I just want him to stop chasing me.

I walked again until I reached the gate of our university. I wear my hoody and continue to walked on the side walk.

Still listening on the song, I walk on the sidewalk when a group of men in their black suit nearby.

I almost cursed on my breath when I saw them coming to me.

I run on the opposite side. I run as fast as I could. I put my bag in froont and hold it tightly.

How come that they found me. I run out of breath until I saw a very narrow pathway. I immediately turned on that pathway, I smell a very not inviting smell on this pathway.

It makes me want to vomit. But, when I saw them so close to me I jumped on the mountain of garbage just to hide. I was holding my breath, scared that they might hear that little sounds of my breathing.

"Nasaan na siya?" Where is she?

"Wala bang nakakita?" No one saw here?

I try to hold my breath longer.

"Sa palagay ko nakatakas na siya." I think she already escaped.

"Mga bobo! Hanapin niyo." i***t! Find her.

I heard the loud shout of their leader.

I heard their footstep running far from my place. That is the time when I let my deep breathe.

"Oh my god." I said.

I thank god for not letting them caught me. The bad smell are all over my clothes and body.

"Ewww."

While removing garbage that stick on my clothes I shouted on the top of my lungs when someone grab me on my arms.

"Oh my god! Let go of me! Let go!" I used my all forced just to escaped to his hands.

"No." I said breathless. "Please, let me go." I felt my tears rushing down my face.

I was scared that he is one of those men who is finding me. I don't want to go back. I don't want to get caught. I want to live my life on my own decision.

My life my rules.

"Don't shout." He whispered on my ear.

"B-but—"

"Sssshhhh."

He stopped me from talking and pulled me somewhere.
