Rendevous

Am to go meet him, anytime from now at the kangaro pub. My worry is what would anybody be doing at the pub at 11 in the morning. Is he drunk, did he spend a night there or that is where he works. I have no idea, my body shudders from the idea of a meeting him with yesterdayś beer stench coming out of his mouth. I have to meet him today. I have postponed this long enough and i have to do it now..

Emmanuel calls me and he wants to see me.. can i see him? Sounds like a good destruction. But he tells me it is cold and he could use some warmth. I am not sure i can emit enough heat to keep both of us warm anyhow.

But then i have to go and meet him. Its now raining outside, i have to brave the rain because he will hit me again if i do not go this time. He has been threatening that i will see him when I see him. I peep through the window, its raining hard the water is rushing on carrying whatever it comes across. Will I really make it there? I wonder.

My phone is ringing, its him again. What should I do? ¨pick it up my¨ brain screams but my hands are clustered together, they cant move. I am paralysed, I look at the screen , its him calling for 3 minutes now. I pick it. ¨Where the hell are you?¨ comes a scream to my ear.. ¨jus…..t¨ I stammer back. ¨Get yo fat ass here right now¨ he shouts. I switch off the phone, run out into the rain… its closer than I thought, I can see the red sign at the entrance blinking in the rain. I approach the entrance, the interrior is dim so dim I can hardly see my hands if i stretched them out. I start to shout out… ¨hello,……helloo…. hello, anybody here¨ A cold hand meets my face with a hard strike. I reach out to hold onto something…I cant find anything. I am falling…falling. my head hits the floor. I feel pain..somewhere..i think its my arm..then darkness
