Psycho

Chapter 15

Where to ?

Nia POV

I continued to walk through the woods. I didn't want to slow down until I was where I needed to be.

I weaved through the trees at a fast pace. Even though the burning between my legs tried to stop me I couldn't. They might've found him and started to look for me.

After a while I started to hear tires and the rush of the road .
A road
A road !

Heaving I took most of my strength to run to where I heard cars travelling . Pushing the branches out of my face I saw more light coming from the north and rushed towards it .

With a last push light flooded in my eyes and I dropped to my knees . The road was in front of me and cars were rushing past me . Collecting my breath , I looked up and thanked God . I stood up and shot my thumb upwards lifting my arm high so even the giant trucks passing by could at least see me

But no one was slowing down . I looked behind me hoping they haven't started to look for me .

The sun was burning into my skin . Making a mirage down the road . Pushing through the mirage was a red truck . The windows were too tinted to see anyone on the inside .

Dehydrated and tired I lifted my hand . Hoping with my entire heart that the truck would stop .
But my heart dropped when I noticed it slowly go past me . Dropping my head I sat on the grass and twigs again

" well don't look so defeated pumpkin get in "
Startled by the voice I lifted my head and saw a women with blue eyes and wavy blond hair . A thin nose and blinding white teeth , peek out the window .

I rushed up to my feet and rushed to the truck . I threw my bag in the passenger seat and climbed into the truck which proved to be so much more difficult than I thought .

" thank you so much " i turned saying to the women

" aww don't mention it maple bacon I'll help any women in need " she said pinching my cheek and getting on the road again

" so where are we going buttercup ? I'm Abilene Hensley by the way . Oh my country horse riding booty I forgot to ask your name , what's your name hon ? " she spoke with a southern draw but she was talking so fast that I was a bit overwhelmed

I lifted my hands out in front of me and stopped her
" one question at a time "
She nodded her head breathing in and out

" I'm sorry honey bunch . I chat so much I don't even realise it . My ex husband told me the same thing . He said I don't even notice what's going on around me when I'm talking but I didn't listen as Abilene always does . I didn't even notice he had a heart attack while I was riding that man like my favourite horse on the ranch Mary because I was talking too much . Lord bless my good looking handsome beau with the shalong of a bull on steroids . Now that was the best dang sex I've ever had in my life but my current husband can't know that darlin " she ranted and shook her head

And I forgot the happenings that brought me hear in the first place and focused on Abilene and her funny rants .

" so before I forget what's your name hon and where are we going ? "

" Nia Johnson and im going to the airport "

" mmmh.,. Smells like a first start to me and a little bit of apple pie with sprinkles of cinnamon . Something you trying to get away from love ? "

I stared at me hands and thought only for a moment of all the things that brought me here
" yes " I whisper " everything . I want to get away from everything "
