Becoming his Salvation
Enzo had a keen eye for detecting lies, and I couldn't afford to slip up.
"Mama, I'm leaving! I'll call you," I called out loudly enough for her to hear me. Grabbing both of their hands, I hurriedly pulled them out of the house. I couldn't let Mama find out about Romeo and the dangerous world he was a part of.
I turned to face them, and they both wore bewildered expressions. Realizing what I had done, I immediately released their hands.
"Romeo, would you please wait for a few more minutes?" I pleaded, looking at him. He glared back at me, muttering for me to make it quick. I thought he would head to his car, but instead, he stood just ten steps away from us.
