She was so upset after everything that happened.Maya had to deal with the bullying.After her mother's death,her life became cruel and miserable.
She was walking at a park.Alone.With no company.She wanted to meet that guy for once more.
He saved her.
That feeling when she looked in his golden eyes was...unexplicable.
Her mobile phone rang.It was her dad.
"Hey?Where are you?"
"Ah,how sweet!You start to care about me?"
"Where are you,young lady!You will be grounded!"
"I am going to stay at a friend for...studying"Maya lied.
"Friend?What friend?"her father asked.
"I have to go.Bye"Maya said and closed the phone.

Nightfall was coming.
Maya decided to go to the cemetery.She was studying here.
But,she wasn't concentrated.
All of a sudden,she threw everything and started screaming and crying.
"I hate my life!!!!"
Maya fell on her mum's grave.
"I miss you,mommy"
And she bursted into tears.
Steps were heard.It was the guy who defended her at school.
"Why are you crying all alone?"
Maya was upset and scared.
"I want to help you".
Maya stood up.
"I am Nathaniel".
Nathaniel?What a beautiful name!That name fit to an angel.
"I am Maya"she said full of shyness.
Nathaniel seemed charmed by her.
"Do you want to drive you home?"he asked her.
Maya was afraid.In home?With a stranger?
"I think I will go for a walk".
She avoided him.
Nathaniel smiled gently.
"Why so suspicious?Don't you trust me?I can see that there is no innocence at this world".
Okay.What was that last?Was he an alien?This world?Where exactly did he belong to?
"Um.Okay.You can accompagny me"Maya proposed.

They were close to home.
"So.Are those girls bullying you after losing your mum?"
Maya was about to cry again.
Nathaniel touched her shoulder.
"Maya..."
Maya couldn't see somewhere else.Her heart was beating fast.
She touched the hand which was on her shoulder.
"I really appreciate the fact that you want to help me,but the problem is..."
Nathaniel was waiting for an answer.
"Oh,nothing".
She would unlock the door.
"Is your dad inside?"Nathaniel asked being curious.
"No.Apparently,he is at a bar or at a strip club or at his girlfriend's house"she said like it was the most normal thing in the world.
Nathaniel didn't react to her words.He accepted all of that stuff.In fact,he followed her till her bedroom.
Maya lied down to her bed.She didn't tell him anything.And she knew him only for a couple of hours.Nathaniel covered her with the blanket.All lights were off.The only light that existed was the moonlight from her window.
"Sleep,Maya.Sleep..."
Maya fell asleep.
Nathaniel was looking at the moon.Maya would have dreams that moment.A shadow was moving into the room.Obviously,it was Nathaniel.And his shadow was disappeared.
