Stanvert (16)

Men. Dark men in dark coats.
Pointing, shouting, and running at him.
“Stop where you are!”
“Hold you place, sir!”
“Come on, keep up the pace” she says,
Looking back and smiling at him.
He can’t smile back, he has to breathe.
They turn a corner, the shouts die behind them.
Despite that, they keep running.
