I couldn't sleep at night. Something, like guilt, was growing inside me. Gosh, did i really have to run away without saying even a sorry??? That's just racist, creating stereotypes based on speecies..
As my sleep is interrupted by my overthinking, i get up to turn on the TV. Maybe the news have something else rather than my stupid thoughts.
TV:"Beheaded body found in an alley with a black bow on their wrist."
"wow.. how gruesome."- i sigh- "that black bow thing is just stupid. That's not even a clue, what if they just wanted something different? TV these days..."
Before i could finsh my thought, the TV continues:
"Beheaded bodies with black bows have become repetitive among the past month. Could it be a new serial killer?"
That just changes everything. Couldn't they have just said it all in one go? Seriously..
I turn off the TV. Yeah i just turned it on, but all this gore stuff is making my stomach twist. I'm too tired to hear this, so i decide to go back to sleep instead. Or try, if my thoughts let me...
The next morning i stop by my favourite café again. Wildflower. This café has been around for a long time, and i know the owner pretty well. It's an old lady named Jasmine, a Paragon whose power is telekinesis. It helps a lot with all the managing stuff. She's a sweet lady, but she sometimes snoops to much into my life, always asking when do i get a boyfriend. Typical old lady stuff.
The streets are packed with people, even more than normal. Weird... I get inside the café, and Jasmine greets me with a smile.
"Dear! What will it be today?? I see you're still alone, huh?"
"Yeah yeah.. the usual, please!" - I sit down at a table, and not long after, Jasmine brings me an Iced latte. - "Also, what is that comotion outside??"
The lady looks at me, before sitting down in front of me. She looked ready to spill some tea!
"Aparently, there's two sirens fighting outside. For. A. Human!!" - she grins. - "Crazy, isn't it? But they couldn't have chosen somewhere else? They're scaring my costumers away!!"
I almost spill my Latte. Sirens fighting? FOR A HUMAN? Did I actually hear that right??
"Is that so?.."- I shoot her an unconvinced look.
"Dear, if you don't believe me, go look!! But i doubt you could pass throught that wall of people."
I scoff, getting up and paying her.
"Fine, i'll go see it then. But im gonna wait until it calms down. I don't wanna drown in there anyways."
"Good good. In the meanwhile, my friend has a very attractive son, don't you want me to talk to her?~"
Oh god, here we go again....
