Chapter 2

Work was exhausting. However I got tips and i t was slow, so it was good. I was walking down the street, and it was dark. I glanced back behind me and saw a stranger getting closer and closer. I was creeped out then I broke into a run. I ran as fast as I could until I was slammed into the wall of an alleyway. The guy had me pinned, and I couldn’t move. I glanced around and saw a trash can. I focused on it and it moved to the guy, knocking him out cold.

I looked around to see if anyone was around and to my luck the guy I spilled coffee on yesterday was there, stared in shock and amazement. I went to him as fast as I could and pulled him into the alley.

“ Please don’t say anything to the police.” I said as he looked me up and down. Then he had a smirk on his face.

“ Okay, I won’t as long as you go to the Bar at 37th street tomorrow, 7:00 P.M. sharp. Then we have a deal.” he said as he walked down then did a small fist bump in the air.  He took that vary well, better than I expected.

I walked into my Complex Apartment, I walked towards the door and it opened, when I looked inside it was a mess. Papers everywhere, broken glass on the floor. I then realized I was robbed. Most people would have called the 911 but not me I found dirty footprints and a glove that might have fingerprints on them so then I called the Police.

Once the police arrived they got everyone out so they could investigate, they put caution tape around all the apartments. Guess I wasn’t the only one. They asked questions about what happened, the usual stuff police does. I walked out of the crime scene, and went back to the Cafe Le Cream. What a day. When I got there it was raining. Again, what a day. Looks like my manager is still here. “Nancy, what are you still doing here?” I asked. “Got robbed, nowhere else to go.” “You’re not the only one. “ I said. Really? It wasn’t just my apartment building. How could someone do that in just one night? Only someone with superhuman abilities could rob two apartment buildings through the night without a single person catching them.

“I have some pumpkin spice lattes in the fridge if you like them cold.” Nancy said, taking some out, and putting them in the microwave.“It’s been a tough day, I’ll take what I can get.” I said.  “Let’s go up to my loft. Luckily I have this baby or else I’d be sleeping on a hard wooden floor right now.” Nancy said patting the kitchen counter as she said “this baby”. I shuddered. “Never do that again.” “I regret doing that.” She said calmly.
