22 october,2018. It was my birthday
Nearly half and hour after this picture was taken and my friends left i was standing alone waiting for my mum to pick me up it was already dark and the plaza wasn’t crowded enough

I kept waiting for my mum and my phone’s battery was dying and then there comes a man he walks past me and slows down after a while, he lights a cigarette and checks around for people and this scares me so i start walking in the other direction and i hear him walking behind me

I start walking faster and that moment he grabs my breast covers my mouth with his hands and turns me over to bite my face and and put his tongue in my mouth

He takes my hand puts it on his crotch and makes me feel it and then rubs his hands down my pants and i shake him off and he slaps me hard and i fall on the stairs behind me and he runs

My mum came after another 30 mins when she arrived i fixed my hair and sat on the backseat of the car didn’t utter a word and we went back home my mind was blank and I couldn’t process what happened to me then I couldn’t think of anything my then bf was in another city

I wanted to call but I didn’t know what to say, I undressed myself saw the marks on my breast and my thighs from the grabbing i layed down in the dressing room and the only thing that came to my mind was to k*ll myself because i couldn’t take in what happened

I called up a friend she didn’t pick up my father took medicines for his bp at that time so i ate all pills and sat down and let the dizziness take over,my bf called and understood something was wrong and called my friend who asked my father to check up on me

They came to my room saw the empty bottle, they made me puke and took me to the hospital. I was saved i told them what happened at the plaza and they set up a police enquiry into this but nobody saw this happening and the camera didn’t cover the angle where i was standing

I’ve been molested ive attempted suicide and im have depression as well as ptsd due to that incident, so many other girls go through this and not so many have supportive parents who understand or who ever heal from such incidents

I haven’t healed completely but all i wanna say is that there are predators like these everywhere even under those happy safe looking faces call such people out share your stories and support each other.

And for men please try to be better humans your single mistake can disrupt someone’s mind for a lifetime.
