I’m so pissed off with my day right now. She, throwing up in my taxi was the peak of this mess.I turned off my car and heavily exhaled. I just did fast and furious for about fifteen minutes with some guys I didn’t know. I turned to my worse passenger of the year.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFmvJuAqia 維尼

“Thanks for your patronage mam, but will you please go now?”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTRmq6ACAi 維尼

She looked at me expressionless. It was like she was dead. She then grinned, opened the door and gently started walking away like a zombie. She even left my door opened.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRXMwgN6ig 維尼

That moment I felt one of the craziest relieve I have ever felt in my life. I rested my head on my staring and heavily exhaled.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡzv0joqZzRd 維尼

For the first time in a very long time, I didn’t care a bit about the payment. In fact, I would gladly return her cash to her. I just wanted to be free from this mess.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHdIn7ono9 維尼

I started the car, anxious to leave this scene. It wouldn't be cool if those guys get to see me here. I started the car, about to zoom off. I looked at her. She was just standing.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡBw4wkJwQKk 維尼

I was really beginning to think of the probability of giving an actual zombie a lift. Then she just suddenly collapsed. I can’t just explain the feeling,  but I think I was about to explode in frustration. 8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡANLw4LVNU9 維尼

'If I hadn't stayed, I wouldn't have witnessed this,' I thought.30Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdf8UWZdB8

Once in a while, frustrating passengers would show up. Some would keep screaming at you cause they are late for an event, expecting you to just hit the gas and be there in a sec. Some would even expect you to make your car fly over the traffic.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfanIMEqn5 維尼

For some, they would prefer the car moving like a sloth cause they want to get a view of the city. 30Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDmawUbAZ4

There was even a day I gave some teenagers a lift. They were attending a prom night, and before I knew, they were making out in my car. Like, what the heck is wrong with the young bloods of this age?8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2nPBqNRIW 維尼

Been a taxi driver, some passengers have made me disgusted, some have made me pissed and some have made me scared but none has ever made me feel all at once except this one. I sincerely won't hesitate to nominate her as 'Worse passenger of the century'. I seriously wished I could drive off, but my conscience wasn’t cool with that.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdASYDCOVF 維尼

I got out of the car and walked towards her. Each breathe I took as I moved close got more intense after the last.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GFtjul5nX 維尼

“Hey mam”, I called. I waited for her to move but she didn’t bulge.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMDHPzCWWq 維尼

'What if she’s dead,'  I thought.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0miWOBGUa 維尼

I slowly moved closer and put my finger in front of her nose, and thank goodness she was breathing.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZMEHHf3oW 維尼

I was so relieved. As much as I am avoiding the bad guys, I don't also want to have any reason to sit opposite a cop for question and answering.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjFZaZLAQM 維尼

She must have just passed out, I thought. I looked closely at her face. She had this peaceful look on her face that made me think, there might be a better person behind the whole drama. I checked the time, and it was 7:40pm. I can’t leave her here,  neither can I drive around with her in my car. I doubt anyone would even want to enter the taxi after she threw up inside. I deeply exhaled again, hoping to steady my breath.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡbH0cbqlVEw 維尼

“Jed, I hope this doesn’t blow up in your face,” I told myself. I lifted her and placed her on my shoulder. That moment dozens of flirty thoughts clouded my head but I was too scared to even think twice about any of them.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fXaIAxptK 維尼

I sat her down in the back seat and went to sit in front of the staring. I felt like I could choke on the odor in the car so I wind the glass down completely. I drove out of the car park we had his and made a beeline for home.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrNIyLibG2 維尼

On getting home, my housemate wasn’t home yet. I and Theodore have been living under the same roof for about two years now. He is like the opposite of me, but we seem to always get along. I carried her to my room and laid her on my bed. To be sincere with you,  my thought was on fire.  To prevent doing something I would later badly regret,  I turned off the light and left the room.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWu4lp4q87 維尼

I went to sit in the living room and turned on the T.V. If I was to count, it would have been about two months now that I sat in front of television at this time of the day.  There are days I would be behind the wheels after 12 in the midnight. I went to the kitchen to make a little cereal for myself and went back to the living room. I took first, second spoon and yawned. Before I knew it, I dozed off.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVj5N1UQDQ 維尼

But then, my life doesn’t pause there. For a while now, I have been having series of dreams. The thing that scares me about the whole thing is, part of the dream always gets to happen. I saw myself dressed like an English sailor from the age of Christopher Columbus. In fact,  I was on the same ship with him and we were sailing paddling a canoe through a desert. I mean,  an actual desert with sand.  Suddenly, we heard a loud thunder. It was followed by an advancing sandstorm.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKvQ0c0F3y 維尼

“Don’t worry modernian, we would sail through,” Columbus shouted at the top of his voice as he started laughing boisterously.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡC69W0rvHui 維尼

The sandstorm hit us hard and we were buried in brown hue. Why I was dumb enough to keep my eyes, I don't know. Part of the hue thickens forming a door. I pushed the sandstorm door.  The door opened and standing before me was a guy in black suit and black sunshade. Under the sunshade his dark blue veins bulged.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9wVnbXaqQ 維尼

Slowly, everything around me shifted and I was in the living room where I was sleeping in. The man on black slowly mouthed something to ne. I moved closer trying to hear what he was saying as he suddenly head-butted me. I was launched backward with the force, crashing into everything behind me. I immediately stood up, as though nothing had happened but the whole room had changed again. It was all scattered. I faced the guy that head-butted me, but now they were four.  He charged towards me and gave me a superman punch that pushed me to reality.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKpYtTvrzw 維尼

“Wow,” Theodore was startled. He wanted to wake me when I jerked back to reality, scaring the hell out of him.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBGdASpPQK 維尼

“Bro, what happened?” he asked as he carried the bowl of cereal I had prepared and dug into it. “Looks like you crashed into something with the cab.”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3aq3BMLdW 維尼

“Nothing much. Just one of the worst days,” I said as I touched my face just to clear all doubt of me incurring injuries in reality cause I got beaten in my dream. 8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡSemCyQfiun 維尼

“Actually, this one is the worse.”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbaU0Kd6Lq 維尼

“What happened?” Theodore asked.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡtncMHyE1vg 維尼

I sighed. “It was this passenger I took today.  She was kinda been chased by some rogue looking guys. I was luckily able to lose them.”30Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXEGZzBA7O

Talk of fun to Theodore, then you are ready to die untimely. His definition of fun is far too rugged, even for me.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rFDOJv33d 維尼

“Did you do it?”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Km4roGSsT 維尼

“To be sincere with you  it wasn’t as cool as I always imagine.”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzMGA4y3VV 維尼

I and Theodore are big fans of Fast and Furious. We always fantasize about driving with a supercar through the city with some bad guys our trail. But it wasn’t all fun when the bad guys are chasing your 2015 Camry ass with 2020 Audi.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIVFBwZBtl 維尼

“It wasn’t a fair race brother,” I said.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcmm7cyF4s 維尼

“So, did the passenger tell you why they were chasing,” he paused. “By the way, is it a he or she.”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡQi8htePUKr 維尼

We are now just getting to the party that will blow Theodore head off.  He surely somehow doesn’t know a girl was in my room. With his unwavering desire for women, if he was a rich dude, I’m sure he won’t hesitate to try competing with King Solomon. By the way,  how does Solomon fair. He really have invulnerable balls.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLDIjWZowp 維尼

Literally.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7JTz1Hw9s 維尼

“It’s a female passenger.”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEqwA4L5Rz 維尼

“Wow,” he said as he took the last spoon of what was left of the cereal. “Did she now tell you why they were chasing her?”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡCs8q9kjStx 維尼

I shook my head. “But I can learn that in the morning.”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDs7ZMDNuw 維尼

“Hmm?”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyiT3E2tF2 維尼

“She is inside.”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AgNk9kcal 維尼

Theodore froze. His hazel eyes were so strongly fixed on me. His stare was piercing. Like he as a telepathic ability to know if I was lying by just looking into my  eyes. He didn’t say a thing.  He just stood up like a zombie. I have seriously seen enough zombie act for a day.  He headed straight for my room and opened the door. He looked at me. His eyes bore shades of disappointment and disgust.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiesKSozYU 維尼

“What?” I said.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡuh9sJ3NNvB 維尼

“I seriously fell for it.”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAdtFjpcZl 維尼

“Hmm?”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1YxfZjySv 維尼

He hissed and walked off to the kitchen. I didn’t know what to think. I stood up and went to check her. Getting to the entrance, my bed was empty. I entered the room and checked everywhere. She was nowhere to be found. I went to the kitchen. I almost collided with Theodore at the entrance.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7tZnXZlv6 維尼

“Hey dude, watch out.”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQAeqfnWSt 維尼

“Theodore, am serious,” I said.30Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFOo6gSuFm

There was a knock on the door. I looked at Theodore, who looked at the door and back at me.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡOg8EIqRpxZ 維尼

“You can check it out. You might be lucky”8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnpVSKZzR9 維尼

Luck is not what I really believe in, but I hope luck really works for me at this point in time.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhy15NF3c6 維尼

I walked to the door and opened it. Seeing the person standing right before me, my heart sank in my butt.  It was one of the guys that was chasing us.30Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHpnzttY2a

I was still trying to rapport with him when he gave me this massive head butt. Instantly, memories of my dream swam in. I staggered backward and sank on my couch. I held my head as tight as possible.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqWDD9oYHR 維尼

He wasn't only one of the guys that chased us. He was the guy I just saw in my dream.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡANRhc5eAmo 維尼

“Where is she?” he asked.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbtKxOMN7C 維尼

“I don’t know,” I answered.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXPvqnEY4B 維尼

He walked closer to me and was about to hit me when Theodore showed up.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡoH69a9uJ04 維尼

“Hey Mr man. What’s going on here,” he said. He was with his towel around his waist.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡbr8j0JS9zQ 維尼

I stood up. My head was been invaded by killer headache.8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡFewOUFJ47L 維尼

I was still trying to express myself when he, in a smooth motion, brought out a penknife and placed it against my neck. I hate been powerless, but I don’t see anything so important to prove to make me want to mess with this guy. 8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡre6o7XmGP6 維尼

“I swear, that’s the truth."8964 copyright protection26ＰＥＮＡＮＡIB8LlLXTM8 維尼

It was unintentional, but my voice was shaky. He walked closer to me so that I could feel his breath. He must have taken a ton of mint chewing gum before showing up here. He shifted the knife to my chin as I raised my head. He looked into my eyes and groaned. I imagined veins growing round his eyes. He removed the knife and kept it in his suit. He looked at Theodore who has been quiet since he saw the knife. He turned and was about to leave as he suddenly turned and punched me in the face. That was the first time someone would punch me in the face. I always envisaged how a punch to the face would feel like,  but that didn’t prep for the agony I was about to experience. The pain from the punch  coupled with the headache gave me the most unpleasant pain I’ve ever experienced. He walked out of the house, leaving the door open. I felt like I was going to pass out but I was still very much conscious and in pain.30Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZRCZdjlZz
