Synopsis
A year ago Megan hurt him. Megan lied about everything and one of the little things that she lied about was the fact that her boyfriend attacked and tried to kill her.
That wasn’t the truth though it was nowhere near the truth. She just no longer wanted to be with him. One year ago from the starting date she was placed in a mental health ward because she had lied about being beaten up and nearly killed. They felt as though she had been beaten up so badly that they felt as though she needed to be seperated from the outside world in order for her to get over her ordeal.
Since then her boyfriend had been placed into a jail. He had been sentenced to 9 months. She believed that it was the justice he deserved while her boyfriend didn’t. What Megan wasn’t aware of was that for the past three months her boyfriend had been out and watching every move of hers. She was unaware that when she left college at 6pm that he would be watching and following her route home.
Megan feels as though she is being followed therefore on the first time that this happens she turns around every couple of seconds to find nobody there. While she attempts to walk faster to get away from him, he must be closer to her that she first originally anticipated this is because she can feel his presence getting closer. Once it gets too close for her she runs until she is home. Megan feels as though this is all in her head and that this is happening because she spent months in a mental ward. She is too scared to tell anyone because they will think that it is all in her head.
The ex boyfriend has a plan to go after her every three months. This is because he feels as though she won’t expect it if it happens over the course of nine months instead of it being within a week.
The second time it happens it has been three months since the first time it had happened. Megan was scared about walking the route home, well she had been scared about walking home for the past three months. Although since then she hasn’t told anyone she just keeps it to herself all in her head.
On the second time it happens she makes sure to compose herself just as she had been doing for the previous three months. Megan hears the noise and makes sure to compose herself just as she had been doing for the last three months. Megan hears the noise of glass smashing behind her, once she hears this walks away as quickly as possible. Once she feels as though she is far enough away, she feels as though the shadow is approaching her. The shadow takes over her and she screams. As she screams she hopes that somebody will notice her, however they look up but then carry on walking. This is her fault because she knows that she shouldn’t have lied. The ex boyfriend runs off so that Megan doesn’t see who it is following her.
The third time that it happens it’s six months since the first time Megan got followed home. To her it seems so long ago. This was the day that she believed that she was seeing things and her paranoia was strong. It had also been three months since Megan knew what she had seen. She had seen the shadow of someone.
This time the first things that she hears is a bang. The bang makes Megan jump. On the first time that she sees the shadow she also sees a pair of shoes however she can’t bring herself to look up. Although she hears a breath on her shoulder she stops in her tracks and she shouts at the stalker to stop what he is doing. The next thing she hears is the sound of stabbing; she isn’t sure what or who all she knows is that it’s stabbing. Once Megan hears this she runs off. Megan is aware of the face that it could have been her being stabbed and that her stalker isn’t going to back off anytime soon.
The final time it happens it’s nine months since day one, six months since day two and three months since day three. She still hadn’t told anyone about it, purely because they would think that she was lying about it. This is because she had lied about everything in the past and now it has come back to haunt her.
Megan knew that something was going to happen again today. At 6pm the same time as the three other occasions. Like the other three times she walked home with a steady pace. While she is walking she hears footsteps approaching her again. This time the footsteps are getting louder far more quickly that she remembered.
She kept walking until she manages to fall over the ground. She shouts at her stalker to stop whatever it is that he is doing. The shadow suddenly appears over the top of her. Megan is the only one that sees the face and is shocked to see who it is. Megan then asks her stalker what it is that he wants. Although she is aware of what he wants. He makes Megan admit what she said and did was wrong. For the last time there is the sound of stabbing. This time it is a little bit louder. Megan then admits that she lied and confesses that she should never have lied.
The stalker then laughs and walks off in the opposite direction, now happy that he has the truth.
