29. Seeking Her

Alizeh's POV

I heard the sound of a car coming near me. I started walking at a fast pace.

"Are you okay?"

I heard a female voice.

Even though I walked faster the car easily cut the space.

"Hey isn't that you, the sandal girl, Alizeh?"

When I heard the same female voice calling me, I stopped and looked at the car.

"Who are you?" I asked cryingly, putting my hand in my purse and searching for the pepper spray. I held it in front of them

The car doors opened, and she walked out of it.

"Seems like my face is difficult to remember. It's me, Layla"

"I.." Stuttering hard, I roamed my eyes around. It was pitch dark around with no sight of humans or cars except her. Fear crawled inside my mind.

"Hey, don't worry. I am here with you."

She pulled me closed in a hug and caressed my head. I couldn't hold my sobs.
