5:00 pm – Ramses station
I was making my way out of the Ramses metro station—I lived in Shubra at the time.
I was wearing a maxi skirt and a long sleeved shirt, and my hair was tied back into a bun.
I look disheveled. I had had a long miserable day at university and on my way back in the metro.
It was 5:00 pm and the square was packed.
I felt a light thumping against my back. Quick, gentle, repetitive thumps.
At first, I ignored it and figured it would stop. I couldn’t really turn around to find out what was going on because of all the books I was carrying.
When I finally managed to turn around, I found a man standing behind me in a jalabiyah. His hand, hidden in his pocket, was wrapped around his penis. He was jerking off.
I wiped his semen off my thigh and threw my books at his head.
When the people around us finally managed to get him away from me, they turned on me and started yelling at me!
