I thought what if she had a gun and was about to shoot me. But then I would console myself with the question as to what she would get out of killing a man of no consequence to her. I wondered if I should just jump and knock her to the ground. But what if it is altogether different than what I think?

The tense spell was broken in a single go by a phone call on her cell phone. Her cell phone started to ring and I instantly turned the light on, all set to avert an immediate assault. Without saying anything to me, she quickly picked the call and started talking. It was her mother on the phone and she was lying to her saying she has already reached her place and that the her flight was delayed so she could not call in time. When she finished the call, she spoke to me. She told me she had told her mom that she was going to return the same day. The suspense of her touching my feet was killing me, and I had to finally speak it out. She told me she was looking for a blanket because she had been feeling too cold. She thought she could pull the blanket under my feet and wear it. I was not immediately certain if she was telling the truth.
