color="#E5E5E5"> while and then I see</font> the silhouette<font color="#E5E5E5"> from outside the opaque</font> glass windows for what was probably <font color="#CCCCCC">around</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> two minutes</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> someone just stood</font> there loitering<font color="#E5E5E5"> until I asked dad</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> a man open</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">the door and just</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> stared at me smiling</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">alas it was</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> not my father if this man</font> was<font color="#E5E5E5"> Cody</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> it was</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> definitely not a</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> fifteen</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">year</font><font

that one would</font> grin in those dental adverts<font color="#CCCCCC"> and then</font> just like that<font color="#CCCCCC"> he placed a note on</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> the</font> chair<font color="#CCCCCC"> next to me and ran out</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> vaulting</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">over the outside hedge and running down</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">the road in the direction of my sister's</font> secondary school<font color="#CCCCCC"> I picked up</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> the note it</font> was from my<font color="#E5E5E5"> sister's school planner</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">which I later found out</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> that she had</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">left on the corridor shelf</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> and which is</font> how I later found out the man had broken <font color="#CCCCCC">into our house I read the note</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> as best I</font> could with his scribbly writing and then crumpled it up and<font color="#E5E5E5"> shoved it</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> into my</font> jumper sleeve I started to cry<font color="#E5E5E5"> as I walked out I was</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">scared for my sister and thought he was</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">going</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> to hurt him the note read if I</font> don't find you at least you<font color="#E5E5E5"> will</font><font color="#CCCCCC">

color="#E5E5E5">alright</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> I told her yes</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> but I went and</font> cried<font color="#CCCCCC"> for</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> the rest of lunch that</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> day</font> when school finished<font color="#E5E5E5"> I went and got on</font> my bike and<font color="#CCCCCC"> rode fast</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> despite the

to let a</font> car pass but the adrenaline<font color="#E5E5E5"> running</font> through<font color="#E5E5E5"> me was so thick I just placed my</font> bike<font color="#E5E5E5"> aside and ran the last sprint to my</font> sister's school<font color="#CCCCCC"> I stopped</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> short outside</font> the gate as I saw the same man<font color="#E5E5E5"> waiting</font> outside<font color="#CCCCCC"> bonds crossed</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> something metallic</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">glistening in the side</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> of his pocket</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> it</font> didn't look like a meat cleaver<font color="#CCCCCC"> or</font> something brutal<font color="#E5E5E5"> but it was like a</font> butter knife with more<font color="#E5E5E5"> jagged edges</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> I</font> didn't run into<font color="#E5E5E5"> him</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> again</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> so I just</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> put</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">my coat</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> hood up and</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> calm across</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> the road</font> he was<font color="#E5E5E5"> on his phone texting and kind of</font> bobbing his legs<font color="#E5E5E5"> like he do when waiting</font> and patiently for something<font color="#CCCCCC"> I got the</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">note</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> honest I fast walked and read it</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">again my sister had confided a lot to</font> him<font color="#E5E5E5"> but if this was

despite</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> the</font> fact that we talked<font color="#E5E5E5"> role played pretty</font> regularly<font color="#E5E5E5"> December 3rd 2002 role played</font> with King<font

color="#CCCCCC"> character</font> back to<font color="#CCCCCC"> RP with</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> so he's been less</font> annoying but then he<font color="#E5E5E5"> began to bug me</font> about<font color="#E5E5E5"> meeting him I've been trying to</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">avoid him because he usually tells me</font> what he wants to do when<font color="#E5E5E5"> we begin to</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> see</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">each</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> other in real life and it usually</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">involves something sexual</font><font

color="#CCCCCC"> to take that</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> chance</font> December 5th<font color="#E5E5E5"> 2002 I got out</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> of</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> role</font>

color="#E5E5E5">do anything sexual and though he bugs me</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">about it I still won't but he wants to</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">RP like every minute</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> and so I snapped at</font> him<font color="#E5E5E5"> today we said sorry</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> Ben cooled off</font> for the rest<font color="#E5E5E5"> of the day</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> yay</font> there are a lot more entries in the same vein<font color="#CCCCCC"> as above</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> but</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> those give a pretty</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">good</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> representation of</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> how</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> I felt</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> about</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">him</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> I felt obligated to keep talking to</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">him though</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> because you know there was</font> this older

then so at some</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">point</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> between December 3rd and December</font> 14th I had<font color="#CCCCCC"> caved to</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> his

color="#E5E5E5">is mostly</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> because</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> he knew the apartment</font> complex<font color="#E5E5E5"> where I lived but not my</font> apartment<font color="#E5E5E5"> number and had threatened to</font> stand outside<font color="#CCCCCC"> the</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> apartment gates and</font> wait for me<font color="#E5E5E5"> to get home from school</font> related tangent he didn't have a car<font color="#CCCCCC"> and</font> lived at home<font color="#E5E5E5"> so his mom would give him</font> a ride but a day<font color="#E5E5E5"> later</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> I backed out of</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">the</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> agreement because I couldn't get rid</font> <font color="#CCCCCC">of a</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> deeply unsettling feeling that had</font> grown once I'd agreed to meet up even in a public area<font color="#E5E5E5"> needless</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> to say</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> he wasn't</font> happy but<font color="#E5E5E5"> it stopped bringing it up</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">regularly and we continued chatting as</font> normal<font color="#E5E5E5"> he was still paying</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> attention</font> though and I was in the habit<font color="#CCCCCC"> of putting</font> stuff in my AOL away message like going to the<font color="#E5E5E5"> movies of course</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> at the movie</font> theater he now knew<font color="#CCCCCC"> about December 14th</font> 2002 I came so close<font color="#E5E5E5"> to</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> meeting</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> King</font> today<font color="#E5E5E5"> so freaking close</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> I saw him I'd</font> left the movie<font

<font color="#CCCCCC">today</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> not realizing that he'd tried to</font> meet me he was inside the<font color="#CCCCCC"> lines</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> which</font> means

even</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">closer and turned on their high beam</font> lights I had a small<font color="#E5E5E5"> Corolla back then</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> and this</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">is a giant SUV with big</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> 4 light</font> headlamps<font color="#E5E5E5"> I was blinded momentarily</font> while I adjusted the<font color="#E5E5E5"> mirrors to</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> not</font> reflect so much light in<font color="#CCCCCC"> my face</font> <font color="#E5E5E5">I changed lanes against and they kept</font> with me<font

color="#CCCCCC">a large circle</font><font color="#E5E5E5"> with them following me</font><font color="#CCCCCC"> I</font> think at this point<font color="#CCCCCC"> they figured they</font> had<font
