Melody's POV
I often wondered about my nightmares. What is my mind telling myself as I'm in my sleep like state. But then I remember my past how it's haunting my everyday life. The past as I remember wasn't a good one. It's not the same as 15 year's ago
I wake up after seeing my nightmare for the millionth time. I'm use to it but it's gets worse everytime. And not to mention anxiety and my panic attacks.
I start my day finding a job you think a 20 year old would have a job but no. People don't want a person who was suicidal in the past. They see my scars and feel bad but the think I'm not worth there time. I don't blame them but it's true I guess.
I got out of my small apartment in London it's cheap but it works after moving out of the US I felt more at peace with London. The light and shops at night is pretty even prettier than US.
My morning consist of
1) finding a job
2) looking at the book shops
3) getting as much groceries for my apartmentNot much but it works. Today was different though since I don't sleep very well at night I went to get coffee at Starbucks. I ordered a french vanilla iced coffee. Payed and left for the outdoor eating area. As I was reading my W/W romance novel. Couldn't help but see someone chasing a blonde.
Don't put your past in perspective Mel. Don't do it.
Before I new it I followed the woman who was being chased. And found she was in the alley with a tall dude threatening to take her for ransom. Okay that's it no one should treat this woman like trash.
I ran gaining power in my legs. And before I knew I jumped and kneed him in the face. The man stumbled then cursed.
" Hey man don't hurt her what she do to you?"
The man growled then said
" Stupid don't you know who she is?"
" A pretty woman that deserves to live a have a purpose in life?"
I looked at him then her. He punch me and blood came out of my nose. I looked at him and smiled.
"I think you made a mistake." Wiping blood from my nose
I grabbed his hoodie that he was wearing and with all my force pulled him down he landing on his knee. One punch he was down and out like a light
I turned to her seeing her scared and shaking.
"You okay?" I asked her
"You did all that and he was a tough dude." She said in a English accent
" Nothing that I haven't done before." I said hoping she wouldn't ask anymore questions about that.
She looks at me puzzled.
" I have to leave I'm sorry for scaring you please go home and be safe." I said
" Wait!!!" She yelled before I left.
I stopped and looked at her.
" What is your name?"
I looked at her.
" Melody."
And with that I left back to my small apartment.
