Meeting YOU
-I heard the scream behind me and saw that the man who had attacked the bar was still chasing me.I started to run even faster, still without any idea why he was chasing me.Just as I turned around again to see if the stranger was still behind me, I felt a loud thump in my thigh and a rumble, loud and noisy. Before I knew it, I was lying on the cold asphalt.Everything went dark, and I felt light throughout my body. I became numb after a second.
This might have been the truth Lia was hoping for when telling the police for the second time today,but it wasn't. It was far away from it.
She didn't know why they started the fight in the bar in the first place,but when they hit her and lost control, they saw her eyes, a bright green color.All the people stopped dead in their tracks and looked at Lia. Green eyes meant money,power and wealth. She was adopted when made two; the adopters thought they would find her birth parents and ask for money. They found they were dead and didn't get anything, so they kept her until the government paid them. She knew the truth after her tenth birthday, but it didn't matter. She lived with them until she was eighteen and then went to another state.
This broken moment in her life was over for good until tonight. She would wear contacts to prevent the truth from being known,but it didn't go as planned.
-So you want to tell me that the guy just went after you for no reason? Sorry, but it is hard to understand from my point of view.
-I know how it all sounds,but I can't tell you more. Can I rest?
-Yes,Lia I would like you to trust me for this. If you remember something, call me,okay?
The detective didn't believe her much but tried to understand and gave her his number just in case. He was sure the talk was over before it even began,but something in this girl made him strangely pull towards her, which was scary.
- I will call. Now I need time and rest, Mason Giligan.
The moment she said his name, his heart gave out first with a skimped beat,then his knees gave out. This girl had some impact on him with just words. What if she made a move... He gave up the idea as fast as it came, but the feeling stayed slightly longer. The girl was no different. Knowing what she was doing to him by the body language he gave her, she was teasing him to get out of the questions. Both of them looked at each other for a brief moment and said goodbyes.
