Alley Of Darkness

It was Tuesday night, about twelve o' clock.
I was walking down a dark alley in London.
I didn't want to be there, but I had to, there was no way out...
I heared a noise behind me, I turned around quickly, it was two cats, fighting in the dark.
While I was walking, I looked down at the stony ground. I saw a rock that looked like a horrofied face, crying out for help.
Suddenly I noticed that I was walking fast...fast...
Maybe it was because I was frighten, frighten for my own future, my destiny...
I don't know...
Suddenly I felt like there was someone behind my back.
I turned around, there was no one to be seen.
The trees were "rattling rustling" in the wind.
Were they trying to tell me something?
Were they trying to warn me: "stay away...danger, danger...run..."
I closed my eyes hard.
Maybe when I opened them, everything would be gone, maybe I would wake up from a bad dream, a far away memory...
I wanted to run far away, away from all the problems I've cost.
But I didn't, I continued walking...
I saw a light far away.
Was that what the man on the phone had told me about?
Was that the sign?
I thought I saw something behind the trees, I looked again.
Was it him?
Was it the man in the cote?
It couldn't be... could it?
I walked faster towards the light.
I heared a noise, I started to run.
I felt something pulling me back, there was no way I could get away, it was too late for me...this was the end...
Darkness and coldness was sorounding me.
The last thing I remember was my own voice wispering softly:
"Sara...I'm sorry..."
