NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 24 – Stuck In Here With Her
It’s over.
As I stared at the seemingly helpless girl in front of me, I came to a realization.
Fuck… Don’t tell me I’m stuck in this store with this crazy lunatic! The last time I remembered, she was going to castrate me with a pair of scissors!
I looked at the nametag on her chest again…
‘Allena Weaver’
Ah… Shit.
Do I… Wake her up?
I walked over and stood over her sleeping body. Observing her figure, she was positioned like an infant with her right arm hidden under her head.
Right now, she seemed vulnerable.
…
What the fuck am I thinking?
Sigh… Being alone in this store with this girl is gonna drive me insane. Let’s just wake her up. Maybe she knows more than me about what’s going on.
But, just as I was about to tap her shoulder…
“You perverted motherfucker…”
Her eyes were wide open, staring directly at me.
!!!
Hidden under her head, her right hand was holding the same pair of scissors from last time.
Shit!
Swing-
I fell backwards.
Thud.
Laying on the ground staring at her standing figure, I yelled, “You almost cut my face!”
“And you tried to touch me you bastard!”, she responded.
“I was trying to wake you up idiot! Who the hell would want to get it on with you?!”
She scoffed, “Hah? Do you want to die? Don’t you know who has a weapon and who doesn’t?”
What is her problem?!
I asked her, “So wait, you were awake this whole time?!”
“Nah, I just woke up. What were you expecting? You were shouting so damn loud.”
I was dumbfounded, “Then you… Why didn’t you respond back?!”
“Because you obviously kidnapped me!”
… WHAT?
“I was sleeping on the ground in a store I don’t even work at… Then some pervert tells me to get out of hiding from the counter and tries to touch me!
Don’t fuck with me, I’m not stupid!”
Wait! Wait! Wait..!
Back then… ‘There’s no point in hiding… I already heard you.’
‘It’s okay, I’m unarmed and I won’t hurt you.’
…
Why the hell did I say that?!
I pulled my hand out towards her, “Wait, there’s been a misunderstanding!”
Pointing the scissors at me, she responded, “Heh… That’s 2 misunderstandings in total now. I still remember how you eyed me back then.
Then what? After I let my guard down, you’ll probably attack me and fulfill your nasty desires.”
This girl… Does she not know how to listen?!
“Before the police get here, I’ll do the world a favor and wipe your face off this planet.”
She rushed at me.
“Wait! Hear me out! Just take a look outside!”, I pointed towards the entrance on my right side.
But the landmine girl’s pair of scissors were already in motion towards me.
“Ahhh!”
I rolled over to the side and dodged her attack.
“Are you fucking insane?!”
The landmine girl stopped.
“What..?”
She was staring outside at the unnaturally black void beyond the see-through glass of the sliding doors. Right now she was lost in thought, then she turned her head back towards me.
Still pointing her scissors at me, she asked me, “Where am I, and what’s going on?”
I gestured my hands towards her, “Calm down… I’m just as lost as you are.
Just put down the scissors and let’s try to understand our current situation.”
…
She stuffed the scissors back into her frilly high-waisted black shorts, and crossed her arms while her back was leaning onto an aisle.
Then staring at me as if demanding for an explanation, “Well, what's the hold up?”
... Hah?
This bitch, she’s not even gonna apologize?
Holy shit… Am I gonna be stuck in this place with this girl?!
