Your eyes widen and you slam on the brakes as you hear an ear-piercing cry coming from behind the truck. You quickly jump out and run around to the back to see what had made the noise, and lying there was a slim, raven haired woman. The first slim woman you've seen since you got here. She appears to be motionless, you kneel down and take a look at her, muttering "Please don't be dead." under your breath, "Hello?" you say "Can you hear me?". Suddenly, her eyes open and stare up at you.
"Yes I can hear you, you brain-dead idiot." she said, almost screaming it at you "You could have killed me! Can I hear him, he asks." she added, you look around and see a few people gathering around to see what was going on.
"It's alright." you reassure them "She's fine.", the gathering masses quickly lose interest as you reach out a hand and help her up. She seems surprisingly well for someone who has just been run over by a pick-up truck as she dusts herself off and stands on her own two feet.
"Well, no harm done I suppose." she said sternly "But be more careful in future.", upon the word careful she gave you a hard poke in the chest, what felt like a static shock emanated from the end of her finger as she did so.
"What was that?" you say.
"What was what?" she replied, seeming a little distracted.
"Nothing." you say, and with that she walked off in a huff in the direction on the bar.
"Weird." you mutter under your breath and jump back into your truck. You quickly drive back to your apartment complex, stopping off at the supermarket and then head straight home. As you head inside, you can't help but think about how odd that encounter had been. Your mind quickly drifts off the subject however, and you forget about it as you sit in front of the TV with a microwave meal you picked up from the store. Before long it's time for bed, you're tired from hauling all of that stuff into your new place and decided to hit the sack early.
