I gave him the look of 'stop or I'm gonna hurt you'.

"Aww what's that for?" He said and laughed.

"Stoop!" I hid my face in my long sleeves. "I hate compliments."

He moved my sleeves and smiled. "You might wanna learn to like them."

I  rolled my eyes and smiled. We walked around the city and to a subway.

"How about we go to the New York city mall?" He suggested. It seemed  little odd he was suggesting the mall but I need clothes and a job.

"Yeah I need clothes and a job anyway." We got on the subway and rode to the mall.

We walked around going into a few stores to look around and buy stuff. We were walking through the insanely busy walk ways of the third floor. He looked a little nervous and like he was looking for someone.

"Are you okay?" I asked looking at him.

"Yeah, yeah." He smiled and weak smile.

I kept walking a little worried about him and not really paying attention which was a huge mistake. Someone bumped into me and I killed someone. Everyone heard the screams followed by a loud thud. I looked down with tears streaming down my face. "Not again. Please not this again" I thought. People froze no one moved. It was like in that moment it was pure terror in everyones faces. A few minutes later we heard sirens and police and a ambulance came in such a short time everyone was being escorted out and people in stores we're told to leave whatever they we're going to buy. I sat there and cried. We sat on a bench near the scene of his death he was being rushed to the hospital but everyone pretty much knew he was a goner falling from the third floor to the first. Police officers came and asked a few questions and they knew who I was because as I've said before this isn't the first. He found out everything just by me talking to the officers. Luckily not much happened after I explained and it was a good thing my uncle is on the police force and always came to anything that had my name mentioned or even seemed like something id do.

"Why are you here?"my uncle asked me. "Where's, Kira? Why aren't you with her?" He asked.

I looked down at my feet. "I left. Me and her just couldn't do it anymore. It was a fight everyday so I left." I said.

"Okay, so who's that?" He asked pointing to Jake.

"Jake, I met him yesterday he saved me from being mugged."

He was quiet for minute. "I'm sorry, I never wanted this to haooen I never wanted any of this." I cried and buried my face in the hands.
He sat next to me and hugged me. "I know. It's not your fault. I need to talk to Jake ok?" He said and I nodded. I wiped away my tears.

I saw him talking to Jake but didn't hear the conversation. I closed my eyes and put my head in my palms. My uncle came up and gave me a hug one last time and left. It was just me and Jake now. He stood in front of me in silence.

"I'm sorry." I said quietly looking at the ground.

"Its not your fault. I get why you didn't tell me that's rough to live with. Lets just....go." he shoved his hands in his pockets and started walking towards the exit.
