Anne faced many troubles last year. Her husband attempted suicide due to the debt. She had to leave her house due to unpaid debt by her late husband. She was homeless when she got a small apartment with a small amount of fair.
She was happy with her home although it was far away from the place of her job.
Her schedule was simple, left home in the morning and she was used to returning in the evening.
She was alone when she made a new friend.There was a convenient store near her apartment from where she was able to buy necessary things. The owner of that shop, Henry, was a kind man who became a good friend of Anne in a short time.He was only supportive of his family so remained always busy. Whenever Anne felt alone,she visited him, and they used to chat for hours under the shade of the trees outside the small store.

That was a busy day and she was working till night. She left the office, but unfortunately, she found no cab. She decided to go on foot. It was dark outside when she was returning home. The road was barren due to the strikes and violated conditions of the city.
On the way, she saw a car. She was helpless and tired, approaching the car she saw two young men were dragging something from it. She was confused and curious about it.
Anne could not blink her eyes to see the corpse of the girl with long golden hair.That scene made her shocked and she was unable to move, that was the time when one of the boys saw her and started running toward the victim.
She lost her senses and tried to fly away from that horrible night.
The dark night was silent except the voice of an afraid girl and a cruel murderer behind her.But she was also listening to the voice of her swollen breath.
When she reached her residency, she was even afraid of the dark shades of trees.
There was no positive factor for her, except that the convenient store was open.She was not sure if the murderer saw her entry into the store. She hid herself without uttering a single word.
Mr.Henry was confused about the situation and couldn't ask anything,when a young person entered the store with a swollen breath.Mr Henry offered him water before speaking.
"No,I only want to ask about my girlfriend.Have you seen her?"
Mr.Henry shook his head.He was not sure and looked around.
"Now you can leave the store if you don't want to buy anything". Mr.Henry point was clear.
The disappointed man left the store.

Offering her water, he suggested that she should take a rest so that they would discuss the matter in the morning.Her mind was stuck in the golden hair of that corpse.But she had no strong senses to discuss the matter immediately with anyone.
Mr.Henry accompanied her to her apartment and helped her to be calm without knowing the reason for her disturbance.
She was grateful to Mr. Henry for the kindness but didn't know how precious her life was for him.
