The Bus stop

This happened when I was a kid, I would go to the sports centre 3 to 4 days in a week that faithful day I missed my bus normally I would have loved to call my parents but they were out, I also thought about calling a taxi but I didn't have much money because taxies usually cost more I had to wait for the next bus which will take a while before it arrives.

`Woo' it was a very cold night, I noticed the bus was taking longer so I decided to bring out my airport and my phone so I can listen to music, almost an hour had passed it was freezing and I haven't seen anything at all not until I noticed with the left side of my eye a creepy guy was walking towards me but I had to take my eye off him because I know looking at him will only draw more attention he sat down near where I was sitting while he stared at me obviously he didn't look normal it looked as if he was on drugs or something he then asked me why isn't the bus here I then replied I think it was delayed he started talking to himself I felt scared but I summoned courage and face my phone in no time he drew closer to me I look away for a split second only to notice he was moving closer to me.

I challenged him by asking if he was okay he stared at me with a curious look he lifted his hands and wanted to grab me immediately I picked up my bag pack and ran, trying not to look back ran down the streets until I got to the next bus stop I checked to see if he was around there but he was gone I sat down relaxed and feeling relieved I rested my head on the glass waiting for the bus I heard a knock on the glass I was resting my head on looking back it was the same guy I just escaped from looking at me through the glass I shouted at him what the hell is wrong with you he moved towards me as I stood up from where I was sitting I yelled at him and wanted to run but my bag was in the shelter.

He jumped at me but I dodged he fell on his face I then noticed blood coming through his face I tried to call him up but he wasn't responding I called the police the arrived shortly and I told them what happened they told me he was on drugs after searching his body we found a picture of the man and his son, the boy in the picture looked extremely the same as me just to find out his son had passed away the man thought I was his son that's why he followed me. I decided to get my driver's license and I vowed I would never take a bus again.
