I will never forget that day. That exact day, that day. The
day that I saw him. That man.
I am Mark, Mark Fox. I live in a quite, peacefull
neighborhood in South Carolina, and I am 16 years old. I a
small dog, named Rex, and a great family. Let me tell you
about that day. The day that I saw him. The day that I saw
that man.
It was at June 15th, about 9pm. It was getting dark outside,
and I got back home from my basketball training with the
group. I took a short cut, because it got really late, and
my parents started worrying, I thought. Any way, I never
take short cuts, because short cuts in my city, are through
allays, and I dislike allays. It's always dark and spooky
out there. Well, you know, I took a short cut from one of
those allays. Mistake. A big mistake. When I was walking
through that allay, I saw him. I saw that man. I saw that
dangerous man. I saw him. He was spooky, and very dangerous.
He had a very old clothes, he smelled, he was ugly. He was
short, with big scary, dark eyes, green eyes, that looked
directly at me. He didn't had his all teeth in his mouth, he
missed a few, he also had a few golden teeth. He had a gray
hair, not brushed. He was very close to me. He was scary.
And dangerous. I was scared. He asked me if I have some
money, I had a lot of money, 50$. But I said, "I don't have
any money". So he looked at me. He looked at me with those
eyes of his. And he told me "I want your money, and I know
you have some, so share it with me". I didn't want to. I was
too scared and to terrified to share my money with him.
Then, he grabs my arm, and he threats me. So, I gave him the
money, because I saw a knife. A knife that was in his
pocket. And I knew, I knew that he can kill me. That's why I
gave him my money, and got the hell out of there. Away to my
house. I didn't tell that story to no one except my family.
From that day forward, I don't take short cuts no more. In
those short cuts, you can meet a very dangerous man. A
dangerous man indeed.
