Tanpopo stood up and walked to the door. Koki's eyes followed her and stopped at the door. Tanpopo's eyes were fixed on the floor. She grabbed the door knob and twisted it.
"Please leave." she said hollowly.
"But, I.." Koki wanted to stay and beg her to listen to him. It just wasn't working.
"Don't make this any harder that it is, please." Tanpopo wouldn't look him in the eyes.
"Tanpopo what do you want me to do? Huh? What tell me." Koki said raising his voice. Tanpopo winced a bit.
"I don't know, Im confused."
"Do you want me to pretend that I never met you, that I never loved you? You want me to live my life with Erika?"
"Koki please…"
"What the hell do you want me to do? You cant just tell me to go away."
"FINE, YES LIVE YOUR LIFE WITH ERIKA. JUST FORGET ABOUT ME." though that's what she said she didn't mean it.
"OK. Goodbye Tanpopo.. forever."
As Koki walked out the door he whispered "Don't ever look , come near me, call me ever again." he said as if she was a disease.
Once he had left Tanpopo walked out the door, and to into the city. She noticed that it was pitch black outside and all the bad kinds of people would be out. Tanpopo was at a street corner, when a random guy came up to her.
"Here." he handed her some money.
"No im just here on accident." Tanpopo said coldly.
"Im sure you are.." the man grabbed her arm, and started to walk with her. " you will do as I say"
"No get off me." Tanpopo screamed.
The man smacked her face, hard enough to knock her out. She was now limp so he could carry her.
When Tanpopo woke up she was in a dark room, with a sheet around her. She looked around, trying to remember what happened. She remembered being hit, and everything after that was a blur. She heard a man in the next room talking.
"Yea, she was amazing, even when she was knocked out. You want to give her a try?" one man asked his friend.
" I don't think it's a good idea, Alec."
" Damien of course it is." the guy named Alec shoved his friend in the room with a very frightened Tanpopo.
"Please don't worry. I wont hurt you, my name is Damien." he said walking over to Tanpopo.
"Wh.. what happened to me." her voice was weary. She clutched the sheet tighter.
"sadly my friend took advantage of you.." Damien said softly, walking to Tanpopo.
"……." Tanpopo burst into tears. Damien hugged her, told her to get dressed.
Tanpopo got dressed. Damien told her to go out the window and threw the alleys in the back. No one used them anymore.
"Thank you." she whispered, she really meant it.
"GO now before Alec finds you."
Tanpopo made her way back to her house. The effects of everything were sinking in. She opened the front door , dropped her keys and headed to the bathroom, wearily. She locked the door behind her, knowing that no one would come for her. She hurriedly looked around the bathroom for what she wanted. She grabbed a little cup of the sink, filled it with water, she took the cap off the tan bottle and put it to her mouth.
"Please forgive me."
She swallowed the contents of the bottle and threw it on the ground. She chugged the water. She walked out of the bathroom and to the phone. She dialed a number.
"Please…help me…" she faded out with every breath. She dropped the phone and fell to the floor.
