TICKLES

7

I've been running for days now with hefty men chasing after me some how I've managed to escape. I had strength I couldn't explain but it has helped me for the past 3days without food.

I stopped to drink water at a near by house

“Hey…hello…..whose….home?“

“Whose there?“

A red haired lady answered me from outside the house she was coming in with some bags of food seems I was blocking her way

“O…so sorry miss” I got off the door steps she walks in and signals me in intensely watching my tommy which I found strange. Regardless I followed her Inside helping her with the last bag she had outside

“What do you what?“

“Water and I'll be on my way please”

“ how do I know you are not being chased?“

“I am actually so I'll be fast and leave”

“Seems you are the one I've been waiting for”

She smiled at me and fear took over as I began to back away from her

“You are one of them! Please don't turn me to them you are a lady you should understand”

“I'm not against your child in fact I'm here to protect that child”

“How? Who are you?“.

“It doest matter camp here I'll protect you!“

I couldn't help but feel relieved even if I don't understand a word from her.
