Goodbye...?

Evelyn's Pov

It has been few weeks that my eyes haven't been blessed. Ahh.. why can't I see him these days. I have been visiting that street daily with the hope of seeing him but I just can't. Did he know I was following him? And he stopped coming? Its not that right? Hope it isn't.

As usual today I have been strolling around but alone. She is busy helping her mom run their store. I don't know why but I really wish to see him. I was just walking head down and earphones blasting music in my ear. Guess this might be a way to distract myself and have a peaceful walk. Its already evening but I don't feel like returning back. I feel like I will see him. I am having lots of thoughts and they are eating me up. Ha!!

It was a peaceful walk but being busy and caught up on the flow of music I was listening ... I bumped onto someone. I stumbled and fell on the road hard on my butt. But it was not the pain I was focusing but the man in front of me.

Hmm

He seems so suspicious. He is all covered in black. Neither can I see his face. I tried to stand up and so does that man. He just stood up dusting his pants when something fell down from inside his jacket making my eyes go wide.... and left me terrified...

... OMG!! Is that a knife? I mean why is he carrying a knife? Is he a thief? Or .... murder.... will he kill me as I just saw this. Umm.. am I in danger?

I jolt up still stumbling to keep up with a cool face but my body was betraying me. I found my body shivering. I just want to run and get away from this place. Ugh!! Please lord save me. Why? Why always me? Am I the only one to get in troubles?

I slowly took my step back eyeing the man. He picked up the knife and kept it inside his jacket. I gulped and he glared at me. "See where you walk.. bicth!! Lucky you I have other plan." He left saying that while it was me who stood there froze recalling what just happened and what that scary man said. When I analyse everything he said I remembered him calling me a bitch! Seriously!? What is he then? Old freaking bastard!!

I walked away stomping my feet in anger and frustration I had gone through. But hell yea I am lucky today to escape through such scary moment. I shiver remembering his gaze. Ah.. he is so scary. What plan was he talking about? Was he going to ...kill? With that knife? Oh god!! Help that poor soul who is gonna face that sick freak.

Scared for such another encounter I preferred walking among the crowd area. As I was walking I saw him....

HIM!!

oh god! Finally!! Thank you. Been such a long time. But what should I do? Should I approach him? If I didn't then I don't know when I will ? I should grab this opportunity.... yea fighting!!

I walk towards him but he is walking farther away from me. Huh? I thought he is with his friend. Was I hallusinating? Why is he walking alone? Is he too... my imagination? No it isn't.. right? Haha!! No I am not going crazy. Absolutely not!!

I take a deep breathe and follow him. But something seems off... but what? 

I silently followed him but still I felt as if someone was following him too... and maybe me? I shrug it off.. just that matters is for me to approach him and confess. Will I be strong enough for that?

He stopped in the middle of the bridge and stood leaning on it facing the river and the view of city looking beautiful and stunning as always. He just stood there lost somewhere. I slowly go near him who is a bit far from me..yea and I am afraid if he will notice me on the way.. it would be embarrassing but he still hadn't noticed me. But I noticed something or someone? A man... that same man I met before was aiming for him with that same knife I saw. He was slowly approaching him and I started freaking out. What do I do? What if he wanted to kill him? Oh god!! What to do?

My mind went blank. I did what my body made me. I ran towards him. I didn't know how to alert him. I don't know his freaking name. Ugh!!

"Hey!!! WATCH OUT!!" I said or more like yelled approaching near him. He turned around and saw that man attacking him. His arm got stabbed while he turned his body. I ran and grabbed the man from behind. And he winched in pain. I heard someone yelling and calling for him. I looked to the direction of the voice to see a boy coming with cops? So fast?

Maybe the man did see cops to so he struggled to get out from my hands. I tried my best to keep him within my hold. The boy whose name I finally know EVAN stood up holding his bleeding arm. I smiled at him but I was pushed away harshly making me leave the man free while I flew across the bridge. I found myself hanging on the railing. Am I gonna fall? Ahh.. I am scared..I heard gun shots... Evan tried to catch up with me. He grabbed my hand and tried to pull me up but his hand was bleeding.

I smiled at him. What a way to confess but may be this will be my last breath. I took a deep breath and said "I finally knew your name. Evan... hehe nice name. Umm.. I came to you now so that I can confess my feeling for you. I have been watching you for sometime now. I am not a STALKER! I swear but I fell for you. I like you... Evan." I said with a tear rolling down my cheeks. I saw him froze at my confession. He just stared at me a while when he shook his head. He seems to be flustered. Did I really make him uncomfortable. Will he accept me? I question myself which will be unanswered.

I could see him struggling to pull me up. His blood flowing down my body made me do this. I smile at him. "I hope you live happily. Goodbye.. Evan." Then I snatched my hand from his making me fall downard to the water... I could see him tearing up..



I opened up to him at least.... I said what I had kept within me.. I may have been selfish for now but I am sorry. I couldn't think of anything than this. I couldn't see him like that.. struggling!! I hated feeling his blood flowing down on my cheeks, my body.. I couldn't think of anything.. Mom. Dad. Please forgive me. I love you a lot. I will miss you...

I landed hard on the surface of the water...

SPLASH!!!!!

I found myself struggling to come up over the surface but knowing that I cannot swim... I knew I wouldn't make it. I felt like I was drowning. Down... deeper.. and deeper...

And everything blacked out....
