Chapter 2: ForEst of Fear
It's a Sunday in the city of Latana, it's a beautiful day with the birds chirping their lungs out in a beautiful melody that reflects the day. Unlike the outside, the inside of Talia's apartment is gloom and doom with the only source of light appearing from the sun's reflecting glow upon the city. upon the floor of the apartment layed Talia half naked sleeping in despair. When sleeping, Talia reflected on what happened yesterday, she reflected on her vaginal virginity being claimed and only here oral and anal virginity remained, she reflected upon the man burning his face within her mind and finally, she reflected upon her inability to move her body when being pounded against the dumpster. Talia lay dormant until she was awoken by the sound of her door bell, her eyes opened and just stared at the door in sadness. the doorbell continued to ring but Talia couldn't prevent this as she was half naked and a complete mess from last night, the doorbell concluded and Talia was left inside her apartment with utter silence; This silence however brings her into hysterics as she lowers her head upon the floor and begins to cry."why did I allow that slug of a man to deflower me without a fight?, why couldn't I speak what I wanted to say?, why did my body move in favour of the man without hesitation?" she mumbled to herself in a heartbroken tone of voice. Talia remained on the floor with her half naked body becoming covered in sweat. "the bastard of a man will live his life unpunished to what he did to me!" Talia cries as her pride blinds her from a sane response to what happened last night as she believes it will hurt her credibility as a human being if people knew she was raped, all she could do was hold this dark secret within the back of her mind.
Moving on from her self-defeating attitude, Talia washed both her body and clothes and began to eat some breakfast on the couch. On the couch, Talia had thought of ways to forget what happened yesterday, she had decided to go to Latana city park. Talia charged her phone and headed to her wardrobe where she changed into her sports bra, sport leggings and sport top. After Talia's phone had a moderate amount of battery life, she grabbed her keys and headed for the door but before reaching the door, Talia checked her front window to see if the homeless man from yesterday was outside. Fortunately for Talia, he was nowhere in sight and so she left her apartment by locking her door and headed straight towards the city park.
On the way to the park, Talia kept receiving stares from everywhere she ternerd, but she couldn't make a scene as she can't make out the people staring at her. However, the perpetrators were discovered as they shouted across the street "damn look at this sexy doll". Talia faced the boisterous people to discover they were a group of black ghetto men huddle in a group between two buildings in the alleyway, the men were in front of Talia and so she had to walk past them to get to her destination. Talia wasn't amused by the men's comments about her and so when she passes the men, she gave them a look of terror and sticks her middle finger up to the men in pure sassiness and calls them "dirty mutts" but as she says that, Talia walks into a pole and falls. The men burst into laughter calling her names such as "bimbo" and "bitch". With her pride in shambles, Talia quickly stood up and walks away but before she could leave their sight, the men hurl one last shout before they burst into laughter "Dear-lord look at that juicy ass" Talia was in a fit of rage and was eager to enter the park to burn off all the stress she just endured.
After an hour long walk out of the city centre, Talia had made it to the nature park. The park in Latana was ginormous with both a massive lake and forest to boost the pull for residents in the city to explore. The nature park was perfect for Talia as it completely stunned her not because it was her first time but because of the beauty of the landscape it showcases . There were two paths Talia could take; The first path Talia could take is a path that circles the deep blue lake but contains many people walking the same path. The second path Talia could take is a forest trail with hardly any people walking the path but its in a secluded area of the park stretching towards the outskirts of the park. Talia couldn't decide yet which path to choose but to stop wasting time, she performed stretches to warm up for her jog. During the stretches, Talia felt praying eyes upon her but she couldn't make out exactly where but nevertheless, she was eager to forget about her past despair from yesterday and confidently chose the forest path away from the public to lift the feeling of being watched from her shoulders. Talia jogged towards the forest path and before she knew it, she was deep into the dark and gloomy forest.
half an hour had passed and Talia was continuously jogging forward admiring the beautiful scenery the forest had to offer. She listens towards the harmony of the birds singing and the noises of natural animals within the city. To Talia, it resembled peace and harmony within the corrupt and dangerous city she lived in. Despite the harmony Talia was starting to pant, she was starting to tire from her jog and was gradually slowing down her pace. As Talia reaches a turn in the path, an old man walking his dog appears on the path, Talia was beginning to slow down and breath heavier than before, she passes the old man but completely stops out of tiredness bending down to her knees to fill her lungs with oxygen. Whilst Talia is in a state of recovery, the old man stops and turns his head to look firmly at Talia's ass shape. Talia doesn't notice at first but as she hears the old man's dog barking, she lifts her head to catch the man looking at her from behind. "Do you MIND old fart" Talia shouts towards the man. The man stops looking and turns around to continue his direction of path, "You better make the most of your life, you do have one foot in the grave I suppose" said Talia as she smirks and looks down towards the old man. After the incident with the old man, Talia tries to continue her jog but feels her legs burning from constantly rubbing against each over. Talia couldn't run anymore as the pain was starting to build up and Talia was getting annoyed at her pain and so Talia made a rash decision to walk into the forest to check her legs for thigh burns/scars. Talia starts to get deep within the woods and she feels secluded enough to take off her sport leggings to check her legs.
She walks up a hill banking within the forest and hides behind a tree where she carefully stripes her leggings off to be met with a horrible miss-calculation...she had forgotten to wear panties before jogging. "I am such a fucking idiot, so many people looked at me today and that must have been the reason". Due to Talia's pure determination to forget her past, she had forgotten a simple step in getting dressed and that was underwear first. "I need to get home I can't continue to jog knowing people can see both my camel-toe and a perfect ass line" Talia said to herself but before she did, she checked her legs and felt a warm,burning pain in her inner thighs. Talia squatted with her leggings down to her ankles as she continues to feel her burning thighs. *SNAP* Talia jolts her head up to see nothing at first but in the distance a dark figure standing 50 meters away crouching alongside a tree. Talia is in a shock of fear but her fear intensifies as the figure dashes towards her. Talia couldn't properly lift her leggings over her and so she rolled herself down the hill she climbed in an attempt to avoid the encounter. As Talia rolls, she begins to suffer from flashbacks to yesterday and how she was raped and shamed. Her eyes began to water as she continued to roll and slide down the hill. As Talia rolls, grass and leaves collide with Talia's half naked lower half but she could do nothing to stop this as she was rolling fast down the hill. Talia finally reaches the bottom of the hill, she is covered in grass and mud but she didn't care as adrenaline was taking over Talia in the incident as she stumble stands up, waddles with her leggings across her ankles, firmly pulls them up and sprints towards the forest path. The shadow figure doesn't follow Talia and just stays on top of the hill.
Talia sprints towards the forest path with tears and flashbacks parading her face and thoughts, she silently says to herself 'I DONT WANNA GET RAPED!' over and over again until she reaches the path but she continues to sprint towards the way she first entered the path all the way to the main entrance where she begins to see the man from before walking his dog just before the entrance to the forest path. The old man hears Talia's heavy footsteps and faces her with a concerned face "Everything alright miss?" said the man reaching for his pocket, Talia broke down to her knees and began crying her eyes out with pure fear. The man's dog approaches Talia and huddles with her to make her feel better. "Is there someone chasing you, I've got a loaded gun and I'll shoot tha bastard, '' the old man said in a thick western accent. Talia was going to tell the truth with the man but she didn't want to look weak and frail running from danger and allow the old man to be her knight in shining armour and so she lied by whimpering "It...it was a wild dog...it barked and showed his fangs at me", Talia's pride had completely overpowered her at that moment and so allowed the figure to face no consequences. "Ha ha ha they can be little bastards when you walk alone but they're all bark as there isn't a single wild animal attack within those woods' ' says the man reassuringly to Talia as he displaces his hand away from his pocket containing the gun. "You look a little muddy miss" says the man scanning her. Talia stops crying and stands up and looks at her arms and legs which are indeed covered in mud and grass. "yea I guess I am, thank you for helping me" she said as she walks back towards Latana city. Before Talia left the man's sight, the man looked down again but when he notices he blushes and says "ah miss...your leggings are um...see through", Talia turns around in embarrassment and was about to ridicule the old man for staring but he said "take my jacket and cover your behind" the old man hands Talia his jacket and she ties it around her waist to cover her damp and revealing ass. 'I hate it when people help me' Talia thinks to herself as she walks off away from the man and into the park gates. She continues her walk home with many stars checking her out but not a single soul gives a cat-call towards Talia. After a long walk, Talia had finally reached her apartment.
After all Talia has gone through today, she finally reached the front door of her apartment. Talia grabs her keys from her cleavage and unlocks her door to enter the apartment. Once inside her apartment, Talia laughs in relief of what had happened today. In the past growing up,Talia had no friends and was very distant to her family and so she often found herself alone in her room everyday, She had never felt Adrenalin before such as today and was laughing to cope with what had happened today and due to this, she had partially forgotten being used in an alleyway yesterday and replaced it with the memories of today. Talia was exhausted from today and began to prepare to have a bath. She striped everything from her body and threw it in the washing machine. For the old man's jacket, Talia threw it in the dumpster and forgot about his good deed. Talia bath was ready and she passionately jumped in it and relaxed from a long day of exercise. After 2 hours, Talia left the bath and jumped straight into bed where she fell straight asleep without any cares in the world. However, Talia had forgotten it was a Sunday and she had failed to prepare for college tomorrow but it was helpless as she slept in pure harmony in a world that in future will become worse.
