A Rusted Knife
The person who rushed out of the door was in terrible condition. He appeared to have been living on the streets for years. His clothes were worn and filthy. Caroline thought that he may have been high on something too. His movements were very unnatural and very erratic. The part that concerned Caroline the most though was that he was had a rusty knife and was pointing it at her. From bad to absolute worse.
Caroline Gets Mugged
The disheveled man demands Caroline’s phone, purse, and anything else she might have on her. Caroline responds quickly. She values her life far more than any of her possessions. After she gives everything to her the ratty man runs past her and charges out of the house in a great hurry. He must have felt it was his lucky day, but Caroline was terrified, sad, and furious. This certainly had gone as badly as possible.
