Chapter 3
" Who are you ?." I asked him as I felt his cold presence approach , "What do you want ?,Why aint you saying anything ?" ..He kept coming closer and closer and closer , that I couldn't breath but feel the wind blowing the scent of his irresistible cologne towards my nostrils , he then pushed me by the wall looked me in the eyes deeply that I somehow felt like he could read my thoughts .
His eyes , Oh my .....Do such guys exist . He had light brown eyes , a smile unlike any I have seen in my whole life , surprisingly as I was admiring his handsomeness changes began to take place his smile began to fade , his eyes darkened as a whole , his face was suddenly overpowered by rage rather than love.
In which I had sensed a few minutes ago , it was as though I was looking right in the eyes of a monster .
"WHAT ARE YOU ?", I could feel fear grow within me , its like something weakening was overpowering me .
His hands moved towards my neck and chocked me , "Agh ggh ...please dont kill me." I begged him to leave me as I struggled to remove his hands on my neck .Shockingly he seemed more pleased because I could see him smirk a very darkened smirk. I just knew then I had no hope ...I dont even know where I am .
Tears ran down my cheeks and my breath kept reducing to a point I couldn't keep my eyes open any more as darkness seem to follow through, as his view became faint and my muscles became weak I could feel my body collapse on a cold floor . I could feel the cold in my bones , I just kept trembling ....Until a distant sound disturbed me .
It sounded like a ringing , it was so irritating .Oh God make it stop !
I woke up gasping for my breath , soaked wet by sweat ...turned off my alarm . It was 5am , I had this unbearable headache and I'm so exhausted .
I got out of bed to the bathroom and prepared a warm bath , went back to my room and fixed my school uniform . Took a bath then got ready , I never really spend much time on the mirror ... I am light skinned , got big eyes , small nose , pouty lips , have an hourglass body shape , got short hair , I cut my hair last term, eventually I couldn't stand being late to school everyday because I couldn't decide which style to try on my hair.
I am antisocial, I love Rnb , pop music. So I usually spend my times indoors thus I always find a lot of time to study and read novels and even get the chance to visit nearest library to exchange books.
I look at the time and 6:30 , I walk to the kitchen , prepare some cereal , I usually enjoy them crunchy so I hardly warm my milk. Mom walks in the kitchen sleepy .
"Is it time already or are you up again early because you had a nightmare?", she asks with tiredness .
"Oops !I'm sorry I woke you up . No its actually time ,I was just preparing breakfast, I woke up so hungry and I have a little headache ." Holding my head as though it's the heaviest thing to hold.
"Check in the upper cupboard, inside the aid box . I think I had some Paracentamol , they could help with easing the pain . Though if you ain't well enough to go to school , you could just rest ." She says as she heads back to the room .
"No , I'll be alright it's no big deal at all."I take out the tablets off the aid box and place them inside my school bag , I'll definitely take some of them after lunch . I take two tablets with a sip of water , then walked towards mom's bedroom and said my farewell.
Along the road , I found myself thinking deeper about the nightmares I've been having lately if wether they are somehow a result of me reading too much . That I combine reality with fiction and fantasy .
"Hey.", An unrecognizable voice addressed.
I turned to look and to my surprise I could recognise the face ....ofcourse I could. I couldn't believe what I was actually seeing . My legs became absolutely paralysed , I couldn't move , my hands began to sweat my heartbeat was just too loud that I could feel it on my toes . I think I'm losing my mind . It was the very same face I've seen in my nightmares for a couple of days now . My facial expression turned from serene to unease in a split of seconds .
"WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?!",Though instead of him showing no care at all , he seemed perplexed by how I reacted.
" Woah chill out ! I'm really sorry, It was never my intention to scare you .I know it's too early to be acting this way towards you ...We actually strangers . Its just everytime I would see you passing it is as though , I've known you .I kn.."Then I interrupted
"No you didn't at all , I'm on my way to school right now .Would you stop following me , because according to what you're saying right now . I have every right to believe you're spying on me . But why ?." I try to act brave. "YOU GO GIRL" I think.
"No not at all it's not like that.I really need to talk to you . I'm really sorry I'm freaking you out right now . But is it possible that we could talk , it could be any day because I see you're quite in a hurry. "He proclaimed with decency
We could meet right here when I come back ?." What am I doing I can't meet up with the same boy that keeps killing me in my dreams.
"That's fine by me , or you could ask around my neighbouhood , if anyone knows where Thomas lives . I'm Thomas Trabant by the way ." He extends his hand to shake with mine .
"I'm Khloe, Khloe Wilson ."I extend mine too and we shake hands .I really should be leaving , I turn around and run towards one of the taxi's , as the taxi began to move my thoughts began to drift in curiosity....Thomas Trabant .?
This guy could turn out exactly like that man from Night on Elm Street ....Whats his name again . But I hope not all I need are answers on how I know him . Probably we've met before and I just seemed to have him stuck somewhere at my subconscious thus I've been having nightmares about him , uncalming nightmares.
