[ Writing Contest ] Finish the tale #13

The stranger at the subway station handed me a key and wispered, don't lose it. He left right away, acting as if he were being pursued. I was perplexed as to why a complete stranger would give me a key and ask me to keep it. How do I find this stranger, what do I do with the key, and what is its purpose?

I noticed that some gunmen were looking for someone, so I had to keep my head down to avoid drawing attention to myself and becoming a suspect. Using my side eyes to watch what was going on, I hastily picked up a book and pretended to be reading it.

The men lingered for hours instead of leaving on time. I also pretended to be reading while I sat down there. After waiting until everywhere was clear, i walked quickly out of the station.
I saw some men walking behind me so i took a cab to my school and went straight to the female hostel.

In order to disguise myself, I changed my hair and my clothes. I turned the key into a necklace so it will be difficult to misplace it. I'm hoping to meet the stranger and learn the purpose of the key someday.
