"Excuse me miss, can you please tell me the way to this place?" a man in his mid-thirties asked me, showing me a piece of paper, while I was hurriedly walking towards the bus stop.

Yes I started travelling by bus again after the lovely incident yesterday.

"Sorry sir, I am in a bit hurry. Can you please ask someone else to tell that to you ?" I replied.

"Miss ! Miss please wait. It is important for me to reach this place on time. I am begging you" the man said.

I took that piece of paper and read the address.
"It's just situated behind this road. Cross and take a right turn. You will see the board"
I hurriedly answered this man and began walking again.

"Now is the time. There is no one around her"

That voice froze me. I looked behind and that man was looking at a particular direction intensely.
I went back to him.
"Aren't you getting late now?" I asked him.
He looked at me and said, "Aren't you getting late too miss ?"

"One more minute and they will be here"

"What are you waiting for huh? You lied to me. You are waiting for some people here." I shouted at the man.

"Yes Miss you are right. Well, I only heard about your power to read minds,but who knew you can actually do it?" he laughed and waved at someone in the opposite direction.

Before I could turn completely , the man choked me with a handkerchief. I was trying to free myself, shout for help but his hold was too tight.
I stomped on his foot, he hissed with pain.That sound gave me satisfaction more than I can get by sleeping but quickly I was held by more people who were moving me towards a vehicle.
My vision was getting blurry and the strength in my body was vanishing.
