The Note Reminder
Julie who was holding the letter in her hands kept reading the words which were written over it. “There are two guns pointed at you now. If you want to live hand back your wallet + phone NOW + do not turn around and be discreet. Do not turn around until after you have left Civic Center + you will live.” These words kept her mind busy but it turns out that keeping her mind busy was a good thing because she came up with a brilliant plan that changed everything.
Nothing And Something
When Julie thought there was no hope left for her, she came up with a brilliant plan from nothing. Julie thought why this person isn’t reacting or forcing her for the money and why has he been so patient all this time? You know people how they get frustrated and impatient when they don’t get what they want but this person was sitting there and all he did say was to hurry up!
A Thought That Got Stuck
There was a thought that kept Julie busy. Her gut feeling was telling her that there was no gun in the scene and this note was just dropped to scare her. They way we are conditioned when we hear the word gun and the first thing we feel is fear. Obviously, Julie was scared too when she read the note but then the behavior of this guy was left Julie really confused about everything.
The Note Mystery
Not just the guns, but Julie was now also questioning the note. Maybe the note was there already and somehow ended up being on her lap. And the person who was sitting behind her was not some robber but a genuine passenger who just happened to sit behind her the moment she found the note. So, would she really be killed if she didn’t comply with the conditions?
Indeed A Robber
“Is somebody really going to shoot someone for a phone and a wallet? I started to question it a little bit, but I was still really scared,” she told the Chronicle. She still remained cautious of the robber and the thought of happening something bad didn’t leave her mind.
A Sudden Entry
Just like that one man enters the train and sits some few seats away from Julie. To her, this man was the only help she could get if she wants to get out from this train safely. The man was in his mid-thirties and looked a little tired maybe because of the work and all the traveling we do on a daily basis. She wanted to shout for help but then she was afraid of the man not hearing her and the robber doing something from the note to her.
