Tantalizing crimson eyes and jet black hair were all Lily could remember in the features of the enigmatic young man who saved her ten years ago when she was kidnapped.

 One day, she accidentally saw him again after ten years in the middle of a busy street in an unexplainable situation. 

Time froze for few seconds people around her stopped moving and in his snap of finger defreezes time as the car in front of him lose control and crashed with the nearby truck.

She was left dazed on what had just happened in front of her The scene shocked her and triggered her memory of him.
 "The guy who saved me was no human," she murmured staring blankly, remembering their uncanny encounter a decade ago.

"Grim reaper?" Confusion was written on her face.
He shook his head, "Non I am Doom and I bring death to people."

After the street incident, she couldn't forget his face and his lines kept replaying in her dreams like a broken tape which made her wonder if this is part of the after-effects of her trauma or if it was destiny who aligned their stars again to collide.

DOOM

I blinked a few times just to check if I am not just seeing things. 


I covered my mouth, as an instinctive response. 


I was hesitant to approach him because it seems to me that he was resting. 


I heaved a deep sigh as I stepped back and started retreating from my position. 


I gave a glance for one last time, but I was frozen on the spot and stared with wide eyes to find out that Doom was not there anymore. 


I tilted my head side by side to check the surroundings. 


“Looking for me?” someone spoke coldly behind my back as a hand tapped my shoulder. 


I jolted in response due to my reflexes as I gasped looking back at who it was. 


 I was surprised by his sudden appearance. 


“H-hi?” I stuttered in reply and gave him an awkward smile.
