How a Quick-Thinking Cashier Saved Me from Danger
I had to go to the grocery store at 2 a.m. There was the cashier and another man who kept making eye contact. I paid fast and left.
On my way home, I heard footsteps—I looked back, and it was that man. He said, “Why so fast, miss?” I hurried, and he was still behind me. Suddenly, I heard a scream. I turned, and, shocked, I found that the cashier was grabbing the guy’s hand, forcing him to stop. The man got scared and ran off.
The cashier checked to make sure I was alright and then told me something chilling: this same guy had followed and robbed another girl at night. When he saw him in the store, he knew he had to step in. It was a powerful lesson, and after that, I never went out alone at night again, not even for a quick trip to the convenience store.
