" What the..." I cried, struggling away from him. " What's the big idea?"
" Sorry," he quickly got to his feet. " I'm Soo sorry. You're not hurt are you?"
Dusting myself off the dirt from the floor, I noticed the bruises on my elbow.
" I think so."
" Jeepers," he held my arm. " Let me take a look."
He was Soo near his perfume reached my nose. I took my time to look him over.
He was tall, no doubt about that but that wasn't what got my attention.
It was his hair. He had round afro hair that looked old school but modern. His face was long and broad and beardless. My eyes went down to his neck which bore a silver chain necklace.
He looked older for his age. I later got to learn he was just 17 years old.
" It's pretty bad," he let go of my hand and stood back. " I'm Soo sorry about that. Why don't I take you to a pharmacy store and get it attended to?"
" Oh don't bother," I nursed my elbow. " Like I Said, it's not that bad."
" But I insist," he walked passed me to where his skateboard laid in a damaged heap. " Sh!t, Fred is goin' kill me for this."
" Who's Fred?" I asked, not knowing why I asked but knowing I had to say something.
" A friend," he stood to his feet, deflated at the loss of the skateboard. There was no way he's ever going to fix that. " It doesn't matter anymore. I'll have to pay for the skateboard."
" Hey, don't stress yourself," I said. " It was an accident. If he's sensible enough, I'm sure he'll understand."
He shook his head as if trying to get his mind off the skateboard. " I don't suppose he is that sensible. Let's forget about the skateboard, how about I take you to—"
" I'll be fine," I said Sharply. " It's just a bruise."
He looked sad and worried. " It's all my fault. I should've been more cautious. Alright, since you won't go to a pharmacy store, come over to my place. I have a first aid kit. I'll fix it. You have no idea if that bruise could get infected."
I don't want to follow this stranger anywhere. Somehow, I have an idea we live in the same neighborhood in this estate. I stared at my bruise. It wasn't much of a bruise but I needed to get it fixed else It'd get infected by bacteria.
" Alright," I said. " Lead the way."
He smiled and waved his hand to a direction. " Ladies first."
I moved ahead of him and he followed beside me at a distance that I was comfortable with.
" Say," he was staring at me from the corner of his eyes. " You look familiar. I can't seem to put my hands on it. Have we by any chance met?"
I looked at the skateboard, then at him. " Yeah, I guess so. You're the boy from the night I arrived from school."
He stiffened, turning to look me closely. " Yeah, yeah, that's correct. Now I remembered. You're Mr Benjamin's daughter, I get?"
" He's my stepdad."
" Wow," he didn't make an attempt to cover up the distance between us. " We're neighbors. I live right opposite you."
" We are?" I was surprised. " I never knew."
