Jozie’s P.O.V
I can not believe that handsome stranger just grabbed my wrist like that. What the hell was I thinking? I need to stop daydreaming and just pay attention to where I am walking, so there will not be another possibility of that ever happening to me again.
Well, then I guess it is going to be about that time I somehow try to find a quiet little park. It is now dark so no one will be here, so I should be able to get a little sleep. Now that it is quiet and dark, I can’t even sleep.
I hate that at this single moment. I, unfortunately; am now unable to stop thinking about him and the way his eyes shined in the sun. Even though I would very much like to completely forget about what had just previously happened. It was like something was pulling me in and drawing me into him, and honestly, it was quite annoying because it was now stopping me from sleeping.
Well, since it undoubtedly is going to now end being another painfully dreaded long sleepless night, I might as well do some stargazing. That was always my favorite family activity. We would always make s’mores, then put a blanket out and spend the night outside.
Oh, I miss those days, what I would give to have them back. I sigh sadly, just thinking about the past. Then, after what seemed like about an hour of humming the music to myself, I saw him again.
Okay, now either I am going crazy or I really must be in the middle of a dream at this moment because there is absolutely no way in hell that he is walking over towards me right now. Surely he would not be walking over towards me. I don’t know why he would.
I am just a homeless woman. I rub my eyes, trying to see if I am just hallucinating. After rubbing my eyes for a few seconds, he continues walking this way.
Just play it cool Jozie he is way beyond handsome try not to seem weird now. Okay, just breathe. Breathe in and out. Okay, that is better and yup, he is getting closer to me now. There is no doubt about that, but what could he possibly want from a homeless woman like me?
Surely he can tell that I am homeless and have no money. Why else would I be at a park this late at night? There is no way it is because he wants to talk to me just to talk to me. Judging by the way he dresses, he is just going to tell me I’m a waste of space and time.
Yes, I know you should never judge a book but its cover, but I mean come in now look at him. You would certainly have to be completely blind to think that this man in front of me right now is not attractive in the slightest bit.
There’s no way that a man as devilishly handsome as him would want anything to do with someone like me. I need to just get the hell out of this park. Or maybe he was just going to try pitying me and feel bad for me to make him feel better about himself.
However, none of those will do for me. Yes, I know now that I am a complete softy and emotional, but he does not know me, nor does he have a clue about how I am. I will act as tough as I can. He could easily overpower me, being over six feet tall.
Hopefully, everything will end well for me. I do not want to end up becoming another murder victim. I have heard way too much stuff here lately about how people have been being attacked by crazy people here lately. Likewise, I do not want to be the next one on the news for that.
Just breathe Jozie you are going to be just fine, you know how to protect yourself if need be. With every step this beautiful man takes, time seems to slow down second by second. No Jozie, stop thinking like that. He could be a psychotic serial killer for all I know. Hell, him dressing nice could just be part of the role he is playing to catch his victims.
Just play this smart, and he will not have to know a thing. HMP, it is not like I have a house that he could even follow me back to if he wanted. That would probably make it easier for him, though. Oh? Crap, he is coming, almost near me now. Listen to yourself, just play it cool. It is all just one big acting game, and you can do it. Just don’t show yourself to be a weak person at all.
