Valerie's POV He got away with it after his pocket knife pierced my shoulder and someone came to rescue me. He fled. He is a robber. He wanted to rob me of my belongings; my jewelry, phone, and purse but I didn't give in easily. He got mad and hurt me. Struggling with him helped too. If I hadn't done that, he would have been off with my things even before someone could appear to save me. "Are you ok, ma'am?" The stranger demands from me with a smile as he helps me to a seat. He hovers above me with arms akimbo waiting for a reply. I can't find my voice. I am still shaken from what happened a few minutes ago and I can feel the blood oozing from my back. There is no need for this stranger to know. Ryan will soon be here. I didn't mean to call him but I did anyway and he should be here
