The stranger on my balcony II

she opened her eyes to the morning sun shining brightly into her room she was was on the bed properly , incident of last night flooded in and she winces at the pain on her back where she was knocked out.

she look around the room and the stranger was gone, she scurry off the bed checking for any missing thing in her room.

'Strange'

everything was intact nothing was stolen, was she dreaming she look over at the balcony and saw the bat lying on the floor outside.

'It wasn't, the heck'

As long as he didn't steal anything she was fine with it , she lay back on the bed.

she was all alone in this world, she grew up in an orphanage and only moving out when she was eighteen, no one agreed to adopt her and those who did returned her the next day saying she was not normal and it has been six years since she left the orphanage.

A bang on the door drag her off her bed she opened the door to her grumpy landlady.

"Morning Mrs Lola why are you here, I believe I paid my rent last month and I don't owe any existing bills at the moment "

" oh Selena Morning, you see am heading to town for a few days and my lovely Trisha can't stay alone at home" she said referring to her fat ginger cat who look exactly like her, both grumpy.

" So how does that concerns me?

" could you watch over her for me"

" what about your son Jack"

"oh he doesn't stay at home "

" I don't either "

"Am sure you have compassion on this old lady and you would be kind enough ", that sounds like she would double my rent if I don't agree to it.

I collect the cat who disapprove and jump into my room going straight for my bed and laying on it like she owns the place.

The sassy little thing thing.

" she takes fish in the morning and ....."

she blabber about her cat routine like I was going to follow that, who cares if the cat eats she didn't ask for it.

Finally closing her door she went directly to chase the cat off her bed and it meowed and went right back on it, seeing it was pointless she left her to lay on it.

..................

she walk out the grocery store and check her receipt to see if she missed anything. She made her way to the junction to take a cab home. she look up to see an elder lady crossing the road on a red light and a truck was fast approaching, oh no.

"ma'am move out of the way", but it seems like she didn't hear a thing. the truck was just two feet away from her honking loudly but the olde lady was too immense in Crossing to notice, Selena adrenaline kick in and she didn't know how she got in front of the truck and push the lady out of the way and ended up getting hit instead.

she was thrown across the street and people scream seeing how she was hit by the Truck, the truck stop and everyone ran towards her gathering around.

Selena lay facing upward totally passed out,

"Omg, she dead"

"someone call the ambulance"

"she still breathing", people panic but they was no blood flowing only a passed out girl who seem to be asleep. A man walk forward and knelt beside Selena he place his finger on the pulse on her neck and saw she was fine

"Do you know her?"

"is she fine?"

"Yes she's my kind she's fine" he picked her up effortlessly and people stare at him confused. But he was already far gone to clear their confusion.
