HE LEFT ME FOR MY STEPSISTER, I MOVED ON TO THE NEXT
“Thank you… for yesterday and everything. Truth be told, there are not too many humans like you out there, who would risk their lives to save a stranger and still be so nice to let a stranger into your house, sincerely, I am so grateful.”
“We are now friends, remember? And what type of friend would I be if I can’t help you, huhh? Now enough of the thanks, you have been thanking me since we met.”
He gave me that little half-smile again, but there was something else in his eyes... something I couldn’t name yet but before I could dwell on it, he added, “Give me your number. Just in case I need to make sure you’re still fighting your battles… and winning.”
