14 Following Her. (1/2)
Chase look at his wrist watch after almost whole day he spend his time at the cafe. It's already 9.45 PM.
'it's late' he thought. He then shove his book inside his bag and leave the cafe.
When he want to cross the road, he suddenly remember something. He then take a sit at the bench near the cafe and crossing his hand around his chest. He wait.
..
”Violet, don't forget to close the door once you finish cleaning.” Poppy said as she walk out from the cafe.
Violet nodded and continue her work. After she's done, she take off her apron and wear her long cardigan and put her beanie hat on her head.
Retrieve her bag, she closed the cafe and start to walk at the sidewalk. After 5 minutes walking, she turned her head around when she feel like someone was following her for behind.
She squinted her eyes when she saw it was a man that had a beautifulblue eyes behind her.
'Hm?..probably his house in the same direction with me?' she wander. Ignoring her thought, she continue to walk to the subway station. Since it was already late at night, it's better if she take the train.
Her eyes peek again at the figure which is following her from behind. 'Hm..he doesn't look at me at all. So maybe I was wrong. But, why I never noticed him before if this is his route to his house?' she tilt her head a little.
She then turned her body around and facing him when they waited at the station.
”Hey mister, are you..perhaps following me?” she asked him.
Surprised by the sudden question, Chase shake his head and put his earphone ignoring her after that.
'What was that?? he ignored me?' Violet bristled inwardly.
She shrugged her shoulder, she wait a bit further from him and slip inside the sardine train.
This is the last train for today, so people who just got back from work like her will surely catch the last train. Therefore, there is a lot of people.
After 5 minutes ride, she step out from the coach at the Seventh Avenue. She immediately walk out from the subway and continue to walk to her apartment.
Yet, she noticed that the man from before still following her, she intentionally pass her home and walk to the other side.
She stop at one alleyway and play with a stray cat before she continue again to walk and returned back to her home.
'Oh my god! He really following me.' she closed her eyes and stop her pace immediately.
Turned around, she facing him again.
”Hey, I know you following me.”
”No, I'm not.” Chase reply to her.
”Do you noticed that we pass this road twice?” she asked him.
”Oh? Really? It's nighttime, I see all the road is no different.” he look around him like he was just noticed it.
”Oh yeah? Where do you live exactly?”
”Somewhere around here.” he said with a plain voice.
”Secretive huh? You know what, I'll just pretend that I believed you. Now, thank you for accompany me to walk me home, Mister. I'll head in now. Good night.” she said and walk to her apartment entrance door leaving Chase at the sidewalk of the road.
Chuckle, he smile as he ruffles his hair.
'What are you doing Chase?' he asked himself.
He took out his phone and dialing Nigel phone number.
After a few ring, his call was pick up by him.
”Man, what's up? It's night, bro.”
”Pick me up.”
”Huh? Where is your sport car?” Nigel frowned when Chase ask him to pick him up.
”I left it at the mall. Now I am in Kingston town.”
