I don't know why it had to happen to me....
i was supposed to be somewhere else but i got stood up.... and
there i was coming back home feeling shitty, and there was a scream...
a lady screaming and then shouting help me....so i went across the other block which was covered and there i saw her lying on the floor trying to put on her bra and trying to make a call on her mobile, shoes off and i asked her what happened and she said that a guy( i don't want to mention race here) attacked her and she pointed the way he went...and i walked towards the direction and saw two guys and asked them where he went....in my mind i was thinking she got molested and i was pissed that it's happening around my hood...the guys pointed to a guy walking about fifty metres away, he was wearing a black shirt and a black shorts and i kind of gave chase and he ran thru the blocks and i followed not too close.... i was afraid, thinking he might have a knife or something....while running i shouted i know this place so well you can never get away....(but he did).....as i follwed and it was only me chasing him...i picked up a broom stick from the bin, just in case...if there was confrontation....then he ran up one of the blocks....this particular block has only one staircase...so he took the lift and as i approached the block there were a few guys standing there....... i told them what had happened and
we called the police from there... to inform them and we waited below ...blocking the staircase and the lift,
i told the guys, if he's living there he will be caught by the cops...and the cops took some time to come .....we did notice that the guy was lurking on top,near the stair case, we saw his hands on the rail... so we knew he did not live there, he was pretty much cornered.... before long some guys who knew the girl came around and one of the guy went upstairs with two of the guys from below, i stayed back, with another three....then i heard it....
the sound of someone scream...this time it was him, the guy i gave chase....the sound of something breaking air and then the thud......
He jumped.........why did the fucker do it.... man.....the feeling i felt..... the question i was asking...WHY...Why Me....the guys saw him on the latch about to jump...they told him don't..and to think of his family....and damn.........he still did it....the cops came and took our statements...later i realised he wanted to steal her mobile.....
and there i was thinking.....trying to explain the would have, could have and should haves.....and still doing....why
