            “What? Hell no.” I shook my while giving him a weird look. He didn’t say anything, and put that guy’s arm over his shoulder. Then, he turned his head to me.

“Are you sure you want to go to your home like that?” Adam examined my status. Yes, I knew that I looked like a mess. A big mess.

I almost snorted, and before I could stop myself, I said, “It’s not like they care.” My voice was low as a whisper. He wasn’t supposed to hear anything I said, but he did, and that made him frown. I almost face palmed myself.

 As a strong wind passed us by, making my hair fly in all directions, we stayed quiet. None of us uttering any words. I tried to calm my hair down.

“Well,” He began, as he gazed at the man that was leaning his shoulders. “That gives you more reasons to come with me, right?” When he looked at me again, I saw a light of hope inside of his eyes. It wasn’t that clear since he obviously knew how to hide his emotions.

Before I knew what I was doing, I chuckled at his words, rolling my eyes. Yeah, I found that funny, not what he said, but that he read how I felt, I didn’t want to go back there, because if  did it would be a disaster.

I tried to think of the cons and pros in my head.  The worst thing – or things – that could happen, is that I would get in a fight with Adam, get a few injuries from that cat, and then I might as well get kidnapped, or Adam would turn out to be some kind of a murderer. When I tried to think of the good things that might happen, nothing came to my mind other than I would be able to avoid going back to that rotten hell that, for some reason, people like to call it home.

“Okay,” I nodded my head, and looked around us. It was dirty, with people’s food all around, and smelly garbage thrown carelessly.

I caught a glimpse of a smile on Adam’s face, but I ignored that, and for some reason, a part of me agreed that a smile on Adam’s face looked… weird.

“This way.” Adam gestured with his head at the way that we were going to. I followed him, walking right beside him. None of us talked, or opened their mouth, there was nothing to talk about anyway.

I put my hand in my pocket and I slid out my phone, looking at the time. It was almost six thirty, but I felt that it was more than that, that we have spent more hours than that screen showed me.

I glanced at the man, that Adam was pulling him with us. I frowned as curiosity fired inside of me, I hated when that happened, sometimes it became unbearable.

Jodie, don’t you dare.

Don’t you dare.

Don’t you dare!

“How do you know a man like that?” I blurted out before I could put my hand on my mouth.

Oops.

That is why I hate when I become curious, I just can’t stop myself from asking.

“Don’t say it like that.” He frowned, turning his head to me for a second, before looking at the road again.

“In what way?” I scoffed.
