"Excuse me! Did you see mice around here?" That was a remarkable way to stop a girl. It was a hot day in summer. I was walking back to home. I had to stop because there was nobody around, and that guy was running to speak to me. It was a quiet residential area in Tokyo. The guy confessed he wanted to talk to me but couldn't think of something good. He was putting screen to block mice in to the houses. I wanted to go home so bad. I didn't like standing in the sun when I was tired after school and with fever. While I was thinking how should I get out from unlucky situation, he lost his mind in a daydream.
"I just broke up with my girlfriend. You can move into my place. I think you look nice with a white Carolla...."
He wanted to walk with me to home but I didn't want him know where I live. So while he went back to where he was working to pick his stuff up, I run to home. I never wore the same outfit again because he said he loved it.
Later, when a guy came to my place and asked if I need the screen to block mice, I freaked out because I thought he was that guy. I was living by myself in my mom's friends' big house. and I had a trauma of a stalker.
