Chapter 2-02 data-p-id=edf24f20746845bd99ce3e3709722191,"Umm... I-I-I" I stuttered out like a fool. He chuckled, which made my face heat up even more. data-p-id=492a680ba6ab31d8ad79ad8ebc58a283,"It's ok. I get that reaction from people all the time" he smirked cockily. I rolled my eyes at him and ordered a drink. data-p-id=8f44c1bbf5cb3f7ff72fc06c04cb7400,"So what is a beautiful girl like you doing drinking all by yourself?" He asked with a raised eyebrow. I don't know if it were the drinks that got to me, but I started telling him about what happened earlier. He listened attentively and quietly while I ranted about my sad pathetic life. data-p-id=c461f42d26ec9e07909a9de018f2549d,After my rant, I broke down in tears. It must be the alcohol why I am acting this way, I thought to myself. He looked panicked and uncomfortable as he stared at me with wide eyes. It was as if he had no idea what to do next, I mean it's not every day you run into an emotional woman at a bar. data-p-id=17212075d7cb9abc09e38d92b35cd2a8,I quickly wiped my tears away to put him out of his misery and he let out a long sigh. I laughed to myself when I remembered his face from when he saw me burst into tears. It was hilarious and now I completely forgot what I was crying about in the first place. Weird. I guess the shots are working. data-p-id=aa9ea2de76b0614e0e23ad312d1c1a24,I was just sitting there laughing my ass off, while he was giving me a weird look. When he scrunches his nose like that, it made him look funny. This made me laugh even harder than before. Omg, I think I am drunk, I thought to myself. data-p-id=72e4d0690c72af144cbef7622626817d,"You think?" he asked with a raised brow. data-p-id=e1e15c3c007b2fe085f20b9006949b09,Did I just say that out loud, I thought to myself. data-p-id=f460b37f7517178c8803e9bbd1e3771d,"Yes, you did" He said with an amused look on his face. data-p-id=8616fed94b184489697bb4b64e06d7fd,OMG! He can read my mind, I thought to myself again. He gave me a funny look before he let out a deep chuckle. data-p-id=c2501b81f383991e6ea72bb98a9d28ab,Before he could say anything else, a man came over and whispered something to him. His face became hard as he got up suddenly and walked out of the bar. I frowned at his back, as he did not even bother to acknowledge me before he left. data-p-id=141d33a27d623dbd87bca18cf24b5057,I paid my tab and got up from my seat. I felt sad that he didn't even say goodbye. Stumbling to the door, I tried to collect myself and shake off the alcohol as I stepped outside. data-p-id=009509450e355496a43515348ab2d6d7,I looked around not knowing where to go and just decided I would head down the road. As I began walking, I tripped over my two feet and landed on the ground. There was no one around so I just laid there and laugh to myself like a crazy person. data-p-id=1dd2308a4a00d858cea6682f1b2f9fcc,I got back up on my feet after struggling for a minute to stand properly. I began walking again, this time trying to stay upright. After walking for what felt like an hour, but really was just a minute, I heard grunts coming from an alley a few steps ahead of me. data-p-id=139dea19b7b47f96605ef871bd107391,I don't know if it was because I was drunk or stupid, but I decided that it would be a brilliant idea to sneak a peek of what was happening. I mean, people do this in the movies all the time. How hard could it be? data-p-id=3be10e8a6e192ecbc073aebb56902218,I pushed myself up against the wall and smiled evilly. I started sliding against the wall until I was almost at the edge. I took a deep breath in, before I push my head past the edge to see around the corner. data-p-id=3cb7f2a66bfd0124c3631325edeff032,There were three men standing over a man bent on his knees as he begged for his life. The man was beaten badly and was covered in blood. One of his eyes was swollen shut; he had a busted lip and looked to be bleeding from his chest. I don't know what I was expecting to see but it was not that. data-p-id=68b9c9f4506bb2e0fdbc7be50a4d1713,One of the men standing pulled a gun and aims it at the man that was kneeling forehead, a scream of terror was heard and then all heads snap to my direction. They were all looking at me standing just a few feet from them in clear view; I don't even know when I moved from behind the wall. data-p-id=1fd00bbcd2caf7db147669b33f498592,Looking at the men standing, I recognized one of them. It was the same one from the bar. That beautiful face gave me a hard look before he started walking in my direction. data-p-id=fb2ba222c2eb600cd8f63141cb9bfad7,I stood still like an i***t there for a second, before I convinced my legs to start moving. At that, I took off running as fast as my legs could go. I heard footsteps behind me and curses. I dared a glance over my shoulder and started panicking when I saw how close he was. data-p-id=4020d97ad5efae983604ba7ab44964c9,As I refocus my attention to the front I ran into a brick wall and fell on my butt. Why was there a wall in the middle of the sidewalk, I thought to myself as I rubbed my forehead. Just then a pair of hands grabbed me from behind and forced me on my feet. I started panicking as I realized that he had caught me. data-p-id=40606fe277d2c001dc3fea51a0b36c67,I started kicking and thrashing wildly in his arms, as he holds me against him. I was screaming and shouting for help when a cloth was placed over my nose. data-p-id=ab9151ab5b434a3a15b6711a46f7d6b8,I tried holding my breath for as long as I could, but the hand never moved away. I couldn't hold my breath any longer, so I inhaled whatever it was that was on the cloth. My eyes began to close slowly on their own accord before I finally passed out.
