I'm a block away from my apartment, haven't crossed the street and I hear a honk. A car is in front of me, stopped in the middle of the road a man staring straight at me and makes a kiss face and licks his lips... I don't understand why that's okay. Women are not food or candy to drool over. It's disgusting. It didn't stop there though, the look of other men just staring at me, their eyes felt like knives and their smiles made me cringe. I'm waiting at a bus stop and an old man passed me, looked straight at me stopped and said hi. Okay I'm a nice person I can say hi back. He walks away and he comes around my way one more time... He said "you're alone?" was what I thought he said. I had no intentions of continuing the conversation. I knoded my head and tried to walk away. He said it again "you come home with me. I'll pay you" ....... "I'll pay you" I walked away and said "No... No thank you" I really wanted to punch that guy. I wanted to kick him... Yell... Anything. But all I said was no thank you.
As the bus comes, I'm holding in every single anger inside of me. I prayed and started to ask God questions. I tried to stay focus but the old man was in the bus. I wanted to cry... But I didnt want anyone to see... I didn't want the old man to see me cry. As soon as he got off the bus tears wefe rushing down my face. I was in so much pain I couldn't handle it. Why are there men like this? Why do they look at women with discusting thoughts. These are only thoughts... I started to think about the women who are in real danger of getting raped and killed... It's so hard to think that it really does happen out there. I can't help but cry.
