You looked over at them, but before you could, they ran off quickly, too quickly. As if knowing exactly what they were doing. Then three days ago, at the park. Behind one of the trunks of a tree, you see someone peering behind it, watching you viciously. You rush hastily to them, but somehow, they disappear before you can properly confront them. Today, Once more, as you approach your car in the parking lot, you look up and see yet again the familiar, yet indistinguishable stalker. Somehow, they're always just far enough to make it unable to decipher their details. Always just out of reach to escape being caught. Whoever they were, it was clear they were a professional.

I can't just go around doing that kind of stuff, it's—” ... “I'm sure there's a better way to go about this, just give me more time, and I'll sort this out...” ... “I understand... Alright, bye.” He hanged up the phone. But then he heard something behind him... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Atticus Valen is 6'4, and he's 26 years old.
