Tension chokes my throat
Ears hearing echoes of steps
Shadows pass by only the corners of my eye
“Click clack,” I look back
Nothing. Empty.
Lingering touches upon my clothes
A slight tug, a mere whisper
Faster I walk and more I keep my head down
Quick head turns, trying to see the feeling of the eyes watching me
A passing thought of walking backwards leaves my mind
“Right, left, right, left,” I tell myself, trying not to trip over my fear.
“Act normal,” I say
As if telling myself how to walk and watching over my shoulder is normal.
