The Train Station Creep

This happened with me a few days ago and I am still a bit shaken.

I visited my cousin a few towns over as she needed some help from me. I spent a rather long time here. We finished our stuff a few hours later, but as we don't see eachother that often. She wanted me to stay for a bit more, and so I did. And that bit ended up being two hours, so I left her house in the dark.

Not that I minded. I had never been afraid of the dark, and I always carry some maze around with me, always just in case.

I went to the train station and started waiting on for my train. I put on my headphones and just looked at my phone, reading through my messages and stuff like that.

Suddenly I felt somebody sit next to me. It was a middle-aged man. He was bold and quite tall, and skinny. I didn't much attention to him, until he touched my shoulder and smiled at me. He started talking, but as I had my headphones on. I couldn't hear him.

I pulled one of my headphones out and looked at him.

"Excuse me?"

His smile widened as I had given him my attention. That smile was really disturbing. His eyes seemed like he wanted to eat me up or something.

He pulled his hand away from my shoulder and placed it near my thigh instead.

"I asked, where was a pretty girl like you headed?"

I was confused. Why would he ask that? I was already ruining my mother's rule, by talking to a strange man, so I wouldn't cross the line any further. I decided that I should lie.

"I am going to Tallinn."

He smiled even wider at that. I was really starting to get nervous at that smile. Why wouldn't he just stop smiling, was the question that ran through my mind.

"I am going there as well."

I nodded and stayed quiet, until the train arrived few minutes later. I quickly went to the area where there were more people. I luckily didn't see him follow me. I sat down, took my phone out, and started looking at random YouTube videos.

I was already feeling a lot better. I stayed like this until I had to get off. I got off at my actual stop, and started walking home. I was humming quietly to my songs. Until I felt eyes burning into my back.

I turned around and there he was. That freaking creep was smiling widely at me, and starting to quicken his steps.

I quickly broke into an run. I am no athlet. But I can run for a long time when needed. I could hear him talk behind me. I didn't pay much attention to it, as the only thought running through my mind was to run.

"Beauty. Stop running and let's have some good time."

I quickly took out my maze just in case, holding it tightly in my hand. I knew I could help myself, if he might caught up with me. I already saw the town lights in the distance. I knew if I could get there, then I would be safe.

I screamed out loudly when he caught up with me and grabbed my hand. I did the first thing in my mind and let him taste some maze. He screamed out in pain and let go of me.

I used that chance to run again. I was already very tired at that point, but I didn't care. I knew I had to run, and that's what I did until I got home.

I broke down crying when I was in home, and explained everything to my parents through my tears. My mom held me and wiped my tears away, letting me stay home for a day, to collect myself a bit.

I can only imagine what that creep wanted to do to me, and I feel glad to be still here today.

So The Train station creep, let's never ever meet again.
