10:46 PM


It a dark dark lane between rows of bungalows hidden among tall grasses.

I walked along the pavement, dull orangey rays from the lamppost were casting shadows over it. Headlights from a distant could be seen from the approaching vehicle. I continued my walk. My heart picked up speed when the vehicle was slowing down before me.

The van was old and dull, with people in the front seats of no resemblance of any typical Singaporeans. The guy beside the driver was looking at me, with a cold stare. Suddenly I found the air around me stiff and hard to breathe.

Then he alighted, still staring at me.

He went to open the sliding door of the van. I continued my walk, diverting my vision. And to my relieve, I heard women's voices when the sliding door was opened.

But it still takes me awhile to regain my breathing. You never know how fast my heart was palpitating. It almost jumped out of my chest!

I'm pondering on my way back, if I scream, will anyone hear? If I fight back, will I win? If I run, will I reach home safely? What if, what if.....

What if.
