"And I'm helping you? My dad's helping you? Why?" He looks very confused.

"I think that's the best thing for me to do right now. We are not on the same terms" she explains, keeping it short.

"See, I know you are young and I know it would feel this way around that age. But trust me, it'll get better." He tries to persuade her.

"Listen, I appreciate your help. But I don't think I have to explain my actions. And we are running out of time." Siya says, a little frustrated. "And I'm not a kid!"

Carlos gets visibly mad as well "I don't understand why my dad is supporting this."

"You can ask him once you get back home. Now please drive before it gets too late for me to catch the flight!" She's very frustrated now.

"I can't believe how demanding you are! I wouldn't have let you in the car, if I didn't want to help! I'm just concerned, you seem way to young to be dropped of at the airport just like that." He exclaims trusting his gut feeling.

"Didn't you say you trust your dad? And I'm not much younger than you, I'll be 18 soon and can be my own representative." Siya questions collecting her cool.

" Oh my god! Do you understand you're a minor till then? I don't want to be involved in making a wrong decision. I trust my dad but I'm sure he'll hear my thoughts too." He says starting the engine back up and shifting some gears up.

"What are you doing?" Siya asks in horror

"We are driving back to our family house. I'm not going to be responsible for someone else's bad decision." He sticks to his judgment.

" No please! I can't afford to miss the flight!" Siya screams

"Siya trust me! You can't afford the right to do a lot of things right now. We should get you back to your family."

" THE FAMILY THAT YOU WANT ME TO GET BACK TO DOESNT EXIST!" She raises her voice in frustration "Stop the car! Please stop the bloody car!"

She gets down quick opening the back door and grabbing her bags. Carlos gets down immediately.

"What are you doing?" He asks following her.

"I'll get to the airport by myself." She says walking furiously.

Carlos runs back to the car to grab the keys and bolts towards her and grabs her hand "Siya listen -" he says a little out of breath "look at me" he says looking at her eyes when she was looking away.

He catches his breath "Siya, look at me" he says calmly, she turns her head to look into his eyes. It was dark and the lights around reflected in his eyes. There was something about looking into them, that made her completely forget about all the rush, the anger and worries.

" Por favor" as these words rolled out of his mouth she couldn't help but fall for the way he sounded while speaking the language "It is not safe. I know you're annoyed at me right now, but let's talk in the car okay?" He says collecting his calm.

Siya couldn't help but nod. It was like he had a spell on her, and the spell works everytime she looked into his eyes.

"Siya I'm yet to make my career in the F-1 world and I'm very careful about my actions. This whole thing is very big, so I just want to hear what's happening and make sure that I'm not making a mistake or putting you in danger. So please understand okay?" He says as they sat back in the car.

Siya sighs and nods "I'm not running away for the sake of it. I applied for MIT, in USA and got into it. I want to go there and build my life so bad. And that's the reason why I'm running away."
