through the
rain–soaked streets.
His gaze fixated on the peacefully slumbering dog, nestled comfortably on his couch. The sight was a stark juxtaposition to the
tumultuous events that had unfolded just moments ago. The frustrating realization dawned upon him he had endured both the
unrelenting rain and an unexpected attack for a cause that in the end. proved to be unnecessary. Rendering Axel’s efforts
somewhat futile.

When she tumbled backward, Axel’s instinctive reaction was to reach out and grab her, a reflex driven by genuine worry rather
than retaliation. Her wide doe eyes, seemingly innocent and vulnerable when she stared up at him, contradicted the aggressive
actions she had displayed mere moments ago. The stark contrast left Axel bewildered, a victim turned aggressor, then swiftly

“I wonder what she’s doing now,” he pondered, succumbing to a dark fascination.
He stayed there for a long time then turned heading home blending in the darkness. Entering his home he added yet another
picture of her to the wall. Then turned on the light. The room became lit with several pictures of Jasmine, it was like a temple
dedicated to her.

she returned. Or rare evening’s like this one when she came out.
Tomorrow was a Monday, which meant she would leave for work at about eight am and return by seven. He believed he was so
in love with her that be had even mastered her schedule. He would wait for her tomorrow when she got off work and they would
come home together.
He smiled at the thought of being up close to her and even touching her.
“One day Jasmine would be mine.”
