00:00My name is Leah. I am 22 years old. I live in New York.

00:06This is a story about the most scary day of my life.

00:11It was Thursday morning. I was at home. I was drinking coffee. My phone rang.

00:21It was my best friend, Maria.

00:25Leah, help me, please. Maria was crying.

00:30Come to train station. Please hurry. I am very scared.

00:35The phone went dead. My heart began to beat fast.

00:39Maria never cries. Something was wrong. I grabbed my keys.

00:45I ran to my car. I reached the station. I saw Maria.

00:49She looked pale. She looked scared. Her hands were shaking.

00:56Maria, what happened? I asked.

00:58She said, someone is following me. I think he wants to hurt me.

01:05Maria looked around nervously. Maria grabbed my arm and said,

01:10Leah, we need to leave now. He might be watching us.

01:15Who is following you? Did you call the police? I asked.

01:19She said, my phone died. He keeps finding me. He finds me everywhere I go.

01:26Maria's eyes filled with tears.

01:30I looked around the busy train station. Everyone looked normal.

01:35What does he look like? I asked.

01:38She said, he is tall. He is thin. He wears a dark blue jacket.

01:44He has dark hair. He has sunglasses.

01:48Leah, I am so scared.

01:50Maria pointed behind me. There. There he is.

01:55I turned around quickly. I saw a man in a dark blue jacket.

02:00He wore sunglasses.

02:03He was looking at us. I felt afraid.

02:06Let's go now, I said.

02:08We walked fast toward the exit.

02:11Maria held my hand tightly.

02:12My car is outside, I said.

02:16We can drive somewhere safe.

02:19We reached my car.

02:21Maria grabbed my arm.

02:23Leah, look. He's following us, she said.

02:27I looked back.

02:29The man was walking toward us.

02:31His face had no expression.

02:34This made him look scary.

02:36Get in the car quickly, I said.

02:39We jumped into my car.

02:42I started the engine fast.

02:45I looked in my mirror.

02:47I could see the man watching us leave.

02:50Where should we go? I asked Maria.

02:54Let's go to Riverside Mall, she said.

02:57There are many people there.

02:59He cannot do anything bad there.

03:03We drove to the mall fast.

03:05I did not see the man following us.

03:09Riverside Mall was very busy.

03:12We parked near the entrance.

03:15Maria felt better.

03:17She saw all the people.

03:19We are safe now, I told her.

03:22We walked into the mall.

03:23We went to the food court.

03:25Maria wanted water.

03:28She said,

03:29Leah, can you buy me some water?

03:32I need to use the bathroom.

03:34I said yes.

03:35I bought two bottles of water and waited.

03:40The food court was full of families.

03:44Everything felt normal.

03:46Everything felt safe.

03:48Maria came back.

03:50Her face was white again.

03:53Leah, he is here, she said.

03:57I saw him near the toy store.

04:00He is watching us.

04:01I froze.

04:03How did he find us so fast?

04:06We need to find security right now, I said.

04:10We found a security desk.

04:13It was near the entrance.

04:15A security officer was sitting there.

04:18He was an old man.

04:21Excuse me, sir, I said.

04:24We need help.

04:25Someone is following us.

04:27Can you describe this person?

04:29The officer asked.

04:32Maria said,

04:33He is tall and thin.

04:36He wears a dark blue jacket.

04:38He has dark hair.

04:40He has sunglasses.

04:43The officer said,

04:45Where did you last see him?

04:47Maria said,

04:48Near the toy store, five minutes ago.

04:52The officer stood up.

04:54He said,

04:55Let me look for this man.

04:56You two stay here.

04:59You will be safe.

05:01After ten minutes,

05:03He came back.

05:04He looked confused.

05:06I walked through the whole mall.

05:08He said,

05:09I did not see any man like that.

05:12Are you sure he came inside?

05:15Maria and I looked at each other.

05:18How could the man just disappear?

05:21I said,

05:22Maybe he left.

05:23Maybe he saw us go to security.

05:26The officer was very nice.

05:30He said,

05:31If you see this man again, call me.

05:34Do you want me to walk you to your car?

05:38Thank you so much,

05:40I said.

05:41He walked us to the parking lot.

05:43We did not see this scary man anywhere.

05:46We got in my car.

05:49We drove away.

05:51Maria looked more relaxed.

05:54Maybe he gave up, she said.

05:57I hoped she was right.

05:59But something still felt wrong.

06:02How did he find us so quickly?

06:05Let's go get coffee, I said.

06:08There is a nice coffee shop.

06:10It is called Blue Moon Cafe.

06:13We found a table near the window.

06:17Maria was feeling better.

06:19Maria said,

06:20Leah, thank you for helping me today.

06:24I was so scared.

06:26I said,

06:27That is what friends do.

06:30But Maria,

06:31who was that man?

06:33Why was he following you?

06:36I do not know.

06:37I was walking to the train station this morning.

06:42Then I noticed this man behind me.

06:44I turned around.

06:46He was there.

06:47Every time I turned around,

06:49he was there.

06:51We talked for 30 minutes.

06:53Everything felt normal.

06:56But then Maria's face went white again.

07:00Leah, she said.

07:02Do not turn around.

07:03He is here.

07:04My heart began to beat fast again.

07:08Where is he?

07:09I said.

07:11He is sitting near the door,

07:13Maria said.

07:15He keeps looking at us.

07:17This was too much.

07:18How does this man keep finding us?

07:22Maria,

07:23we need to call the police,

07:26I said.

07:27But then Maria did something strange.

07:30She stood up.

07:31She walked over to the man in the blue jacket.

07:36She sat down at his table.

07:39I could not believe it.

07:42Maria was talking to this scary man.

07:45They were having a conversation.

07:48After a few minutes,

07:49Maria came back.

07:51The man came with her.

07:53Leah,

07:54I need to tell you something,

07:56Maria said.

07:57This is Miller.

07:59He is my ex-boyfriend.

08:00My ex-boyfriend.

08:02I was shocked.

08:04What?

08:05I said.

08:06Your ex-boyfriend?

08:07But you said he was following you.

08:10I know,

08:12she said.

08:13I am sorry.

08:14I lied to you.

08:16Miller sat down at our table.

08:19He took off his sunglasses.

08:21He looked like a normal person.

08:23He was not scary at all.

08:25He looked sad.

08:27He looked tired.

08:28Leah,

08:30I am sorry we scared you today,

08:33Miller said.

08:34Maria and I broke up three months ago.

08:37I have been trying to talk to her,

08:39but she will not answer my calls.

08:43Maria looked embarrassed.

08:45She said,

08:46Miller,

08:47I told you we are finished,

08:49Miller said.

08:50But Maria,

08:51I love you.

08:53I made a mistake.

08:54I want to fix things.

08:57Now I understood.

08:59Miller was Maria's ex-boyfriend.

09:02He would not accept that their relationship was over.

09:07Maria,

09:08why did you lie to me?

09:10I asked.

09:11Maria said,

09:13Because I knew you would tell me to just talk to him.

09:17But I do not want to talk to him.

09:20Miller looked hurt.

09:22Maria,

09:23I just want five minutes to explain,

09:26he said.

09:28Miller,

09:29following her is not the way to win her back,

09:33I told him.

09:34That is illegal.

09:37Maria turned to Miller and said,

09:40Miller,

09:40you need to understand.

09:43You follow me without permission.

09:46It scares me.

09:47I called Leah because I felt afraid.

09:50But I would never hurt you,

09:53Maria,

09:54Miller said.

09:56Maria said,

09:58Following someone is wrong.

10:01Following someone who does not want to see you is wrong.

10:06I could see that Miller really loved Maria,

10:10but Maria did not want to be with him anymore.

10:14Miller,

10:16I said,

10:17If you really love Maria,

10:20you need to respect her decision.

10:23Miller was quiet for a long time.

10:26Finally,

10:26he spoke.

10:28Maria,

10:29he said,

10:30I just wanted to return something to you.

10:33I still have the key to your apartment.

10:37Miller took a key from his pocket

10:40and put it on the table.

10:42He said,

10:43I also wanted to say I am sorry.

10:46I should not have followed you today.

10:49I will not bother you anymore.

10:53Maria took the key.

10:54Thank you,

10:55Miller,

10:56she said.

10:57I hope you find someone who makes you happy.

11:01Miller stood up.

11:02He said,

11:03Goodbye,

11:04Maria.

11:05Goodbye,

11:05Leah.

11:06I am sorry for scaring you both today.

11:10After Miller left,

11:12Maria and I sat quietly.

11:15So,

11:16that is the real story,

11:18Maria said.

11:19My ex-boyfriend wanted to return my apartment key.

11:24And Leah,

11:25thank you for being such a good friend.

11:29We drove home.

11:31It had been a very strange day,

11:34but everything worked out.

11:36Sometimes the scariest situations have the simplest explanations.
