It's dark,its after midnight, the car is on the top floor of a multi car park...I'm a woman...aged 45....I'm afraid......
I had great applause after my poems and short stories were told on the stage. They gave me a cheque which I put in my handbag and after a few kisses and hugs, I left making my way to the car.
I had parked in the muti car park and had to drive to the very top when I arrived at 5pm. Most office workers had yet to leave and I thought at the time that it was unfortunate that it was not a first floor space I had got. But now the fear was coming to me. I could hear my heels notifying any potential attacker that I was there. My heart beat quicker. Sweat on my brow could be felt. I walked quickly and the lift doors were now in sight to get me to the fifth floor. Thankfully they were open. I would be safe for a few minutes as the lift took me up.
I pressed the button to close the door and the doors began to close but just before they did, two hairy hands entered and clasped on the closing doors, a growl came from his voice. My heart jumped. I froze. The intruder forced the doors apart and entered. He looked and me and I at him.
The thought then came to me, whatever did I see in marrying him?
