Thanks to those who offered me thoughts :)
I pounded my feet across the pavement, my heart bursting, why had I never tried harder in P.E? My mild asthma was now emerging and that made the strain on me all the more powerful, all the more painful. And I could hear him behind me, lightly sprinting, teasing me, taunting me, he knew I couldn’t escape and now I was just a mouse in his game. Oh he did know how to get to me.
I didn’t realize I had slowed down during my process of thoughts, there was a resounding ‘crack!’ pain shot through my head, burning its way from its point of impact round to the front so it felt like my whole head was a ball of flame. I didn’t cry out as I fell, skidding across the harsh concrete. I caught the last glimpse of his cold, dead, destroying smile and then the darkness came to carry me away, I couldn’t help but go with it. It was too irresistible.
