Why was I here? Why couldn't I leave? Oh, right. My legs were frozen stiff.
"Trying to hide?" The taunting voice said evily.
I took a deep breath and held it. I silently dug around for my pepper spray, my cell phone, and my air horn. I found all three and set my purse on the ground gently. I shoved my cell phone in my back pocket, held the air horn in my left hand with my finger on the button, and the pepper spray in my right hand.
I sat down in a dark corner in the alley and hugged my knees to my chest. I hated every choice that I'd made now. I'd left home, leaving my family that loved me, I'd taken all of my money, I'd done everything that I'd sworn to myself that I'd never do.
I silently let out the breath that I'd been holding for a full two minutes. I pulled my purse on my shoulder, stood up, and pulled in another breath. I walked to the opening of the alley and peeked around the corner. I was in the worst neighborhood of town. I started walking across the street, but someone pulled me back. I let out a huge scream, making some people turn their lights on and look out of their windows.
"Let her go!" Someone ran down the street and pulled me away from the voice that I'd been running from.
The new voice punched the guy in the nose, knocking him out cold. He picked up my purse and gestured for me to follow him.
I'd never realized that my purse had fallen off of my shoulder. I just walked close behind him and reached for my purse back.
