Chapter 3

It's been 3 days since I last saw Alexander and I don't know if I'll see him again. Well, I was not hoping that we will be friends or anything like that but I was expecting civility, I would like to know how he's doing.

I stopped the evening walks, I don't want to find myself in that type of situation again. My days are back to being normal. I go to school, my part time job at the cafe and the apartment. A very boring routine.

I would have loved it if my life had remained boring but we don't always get what we wish for. I started realizing that someone was following me. He follows me everywhere, to the campus, the cafe, the apartment and everywhere else. At first I thought I was being anxious about nothing but after a few days I was sure that I was really being followed.

The man is tall, muscular and always wears black. I'm wondering if he's just a random stalker or he's targeting me for something else. What if it has something to do with Alexander? I didn't want to dwell on it but I could tell that he is not a regular law abiding citizen.

His tattoos looked gang related. I wasn't going to focus on the fact that I could have taken a gang member to my home. When did I start being so reckless? I'm usually more careful.

I tell by best friend, Lana about it. If something happens to me at least there will be someone who knows something. We are at her place having a girl's night in. Spilling tea and catching up. Adulting is hard so we barely spend time together.

Well, unlike me Lana is actually lucky in love. She has been with her boyfriend since high school and they are still happily in love. I'm on my third break up and I hope that lady luck and cupid will also favor me.

We do skincare, order in and drink wine while talking. For a while I forget about my stalker and relax. We drink wine until we black out. It's Friday so we can get as drunk as we want because we have nothing to do tomorrow.

"Wake up" a deep voice wakes me from my sleep. I feel something cold on face, I struggle waking up with my eyes heavy from yesterday's wine marathon. I feel like I'm dreaming and the voice gets clearer and louder, "I said wake up stop wasting my time".

I open my eyes and my heart starts beating fast. I see someone standing next to the bed. I quickly scan the room and I see Lana tied up in the corner. I try to fight but it's in vain, I also end up tied up. When I look at the man I see that he's the one who's been following me.

He picks me up and puts me over his shoulder and leaves Lana in the apartment. I keep trying to move but his grasp is tight and I just tire myself and pass out.
