Fight To Live

A Savior

Ken POV

I cant believe it she is Hope. She is the person because of whom girls feel safe even at night thinking that this HOPE is always in the dark for their safety.

She is out at nights as their savior now I understand where she goes at nights for hours after her nightmares I have a hunch that she has suffered from something that is horrible but I cant ask her and make her relive those when I myself am afraid of the incident that happened to me but I am very proud that even though she has suffered she has not given up instead she is fighting to live she is not crying over it and hiding behind walls being afraid like me.

Even though I decided to live and be there for others but I am afraid of what future holds of what will happen when I face a situation where I have to be there for others like Sierra was there for me.

Only I know how I am continuing with out showing my fright to Sierra or how I am controlling myself whenever to not flinch whenever I see a old man around me. I have been trying to fight but no matter what I cant bring myself to do anything until Sierra is not there with me.

 "Ho Ho Hope? You are Hope?", she asked stuttering maybe even she is shocked to see that Hope is a girl as everyone in the town knows that there is this person named Hope who is always there at nights who is a savior of many of those girls who were once targeted by men who are like hungry wolves at night.

People in this town are afraid as well as happy that there is someone for them too, that there is someone who is their savior who protects every girl in the town without any ulterior because no one ever talked to him or her but were saved by an unknown.

The first ever girl that reported her harassers to police told them that she was saved by someone who was in a hoody who left immediately after making sure that her harassers are no where in condition to do anything to her and she called her Hope.

Her words were "When there are people in present who start recording instead of helping in the present there is he who came like a ray of light A Hope that there are still people who help others in need instead of just sitting back and he was Hope. A Hope that made me realize in that second when he rescued me that there is someone for everyone" it was her statement which was published on newspapers and was on news and after sometime there was another case like that when two girls were rescued from a bunch of drunks by an known and people just started calling the unknown Hope.

It was a hot topic in the town for a month and even though people talk less about it now but no one ever forgot about it.

 "Yes, Now go home and be careful next time", Sierra told her while I saw that there she has this big smile on her face that reflects that she is happy and grateful for Sierra to be there as if she is glad that she got to meet her while none of the others could, it looked like she sees Sierra as her idol.

 "Thankyou so much for being there for me", she said as she took Sierra in a hug which was a surprise for Sierra when I saw her expressions.

 "Its Okay now go home and don't come out at this time of the night, understood?", Sierra reprimanded her as she got out of the hug while the girl nodded like a child with tears brimming in her eyes but a smile on her face.

 "Wait.. ", Sierra stopped her when she was leaving who turned around after hearing Sierra call out for her.

 "Don't tell anyone that you met me or ever saw me ok?", Sierra asked her who thought for a second but nodded with a smile and left.

 "You can come out now", Sierra said out of nowhere while I stiffened hearing her thinking that there is someone else too except me and her but her next words were a surprise for me.

 "Ken I know you are there hiding so come out", she said and I came out after a few minutes when she called out for me again.

 "How did you know I was there?", I blurted out the question that was in my mind as soon as I saw her while she just gave me a smile which was calming and she gestured for me to come with her which I did and we walked together till we reached home and settled on the couch.

 "How did you know?", I asked her again as I wanted to know how did she found out when I am sure I was hiding very nicely and she never once turned towards the side where I was hiding.

 "I knew from the start because you were following me", as soon as she said that I tensed because I didn't knew what to say to her.

 "Did you really think that I didn't knew that you stopped taking sleeping pills and that you were always outside my door when I had nightmares?", she said this and I turned my head towards her with a jerk with shock filled expressions.

She always kept an eye on me she was always thinking about me, and cared for me.

 "How did you find out?", I asked her because I wanted to know why she didn't tell me if she knew.

 "I have always kept an eye on you to make sure that you don't do anything stupid to yourself, I wanted to make sure that you are safe and thinking for your future instead of the past incident that happened and move on", she told me still with a slight smile on her face.

And I know I don't know how but i know that no matter what she will always be a savior for me, and for everyone.
