"Gravitate"- Part-9

"Gravitate"
Part-9

It's been a long tiring day. So many things had to do. I almost forgot all tension since I had so much on my plate. It's really late by now.
"Oh crap! It's almost 10.30 pm. Damn! Bi, you're going to be really late! I hope I may catch the bus!", I keep talking to myself like as usual. And I don't feel lonely whenever I talk to myself.

I've already left the office. Moving towards the bus stand as fast as I can!

Suddenly I sensed someone might have been following me! I hold my bag tightly and start moving faster. I reach the bus stop and sit on the bench, panting and curiously checking if there's someone nearby. The bus stand is empty . All I can hear my own heartbeat clearly.

A man is coming towards me. Wearing a black hoodie! I got chill on my nerves! He sits beside me. His face is all over covered by mask and the hood. I could not see his face. Though I'm not looking at him directly. I'm afraid but I can't let him know it.
All of a sudden he places a wallet beside me and I was about to scream out of terror!
Wait, it looks like my wallet !
I search my bag and can't find mine though!
I smiles sheepishly and take the wallet thanking him though I'm not ready to talk to him.

Surprisingly, the man hasn't uttered a single word or hasn't made any gesture to interact with me either! And that makes me feel more uncomfortable, I guess! Because neither I can see his face nor hear his voice. I got goosebumps!

And then the bus becomes the savior. I get in the bus but the man is still sitting on the bench!
“Was he following me? ", as I've started thinking over it, I'm feeling uncomfortable!
