And HE is safe!

She stared at him. She was petrified. He was standing on the edge of the wall, ready to take the plunge on the wrong side.

“I should stop him” she thought. “But, how?”

She was not able to think. She panicked and looked around for help. Why wasn’t anyone able to see what she was seeing?  There were so many people around and yet there was no one to help her.

She loved the coffee at that café. “My best companion - coffee” she thought to herself. She pulled out a book from her bag. Now that she had taken a sip, she knew the rest of the coffee was below the brim of the mug. A book in one hand, coffee mug in the other, sitting at the corner table in the café and the sound of rain drops - Perfect. She took another sip of coffee, flipped another page and blushed…
