Question

Which point of view does the author use to narrate this story?

You try to brush off the growing feeling that someone’s eyes are watching you. You hear rapid footsteps approaching, and you quicken your pace. Then, you catch a glimpse of your apartment building, and relief floods you. You break into a sprint and rush through the main door. Your brother was right. You really do need to buy a car.
