24 Weeks Of Knowing Him

3

"Yeah?" I can't believe I say that, that I didn't act like how I planed in my mind previously. "I didn't plan that"

"Sorry?"

I did not realize that I said that out loud "no nothing" I replied.

"Where are you heading? If I can ask" He asks politely

Polite. Check.

"I'm heading home"

"Ah okay." He looks like he was thinking about something then continue " Uhm... can I give you a ride ?" He questioned

I didn't think twice. After all I still have a lot to walk until home and I know him, we were taking the same French course and we passed the same exam. I remember how he was asking for help on the last question like it was yesterday, plus one friend of mine know him and he was fine if I can say.

"Why not?"

He push one button from his side to unlock the car door and I open it to climb on.

"Humm you're confident" he says looking ahead of him.

I looked at him to analyze his face to really make sure even if I was hundred percent sure of who I was talking with before entering the car.

"What?" He ask

"I know you" I say still staring at him. I know it's impolite by my part but whatever.

"I'm not sure"  he make quick glance at me "I don't think so"

"Yeah I know you. I don't remember where exactly but your face isn't new to me"

"Really?" He said smirking

"Certain" I confirmed

Then the darkness behind us draw my attention so I looked at it and at him then back at it again.

He noticed the kind of fear that I hided and laughed "there's nothing there" he switched the light on "look. I see how you're panicking I can smell it"

I burst in laugh and he did the same.

"Just to make sure" I look back behind us again. Clear there are just a pillow on it. Why a pillow? You're homeless ? I laugh at my own thought. "How could he be homeless when he owns a car like this?" My conscience mocked me. "Who told you that it's his car first ? He could maybe just be a driver" I replied at my conscience

"Where do you live ?" He asks when we reach the principle road.

"At the end of this road" I point at his left side but contrary to that he take the opposite way

"Wow it's pretty far" he teases.

"You should have just t..." I start but he didn't give me the opportunity to end my sentence.

"Don't worry I'll drive you home but first I wanna drive you around" he explain "Okay. So tell me somethings about you"

Things that I hate when it's about making new friend is that I need to start from the bottom of my life to explain how I live, what I do for living, which college I attend, when I get my diploma and maybe when I could probably die.

"There's nothing interesting about my life you know"

"Maybe the not interesting part would make it" he smiles at me.

"Persistent" I scold him.

"Just wanna know" he put his both hands out of the wheel "so tell me"

"Well... hey now I remember that we took course at the same time" I tried to skip his question even if I'm convinced that he will put it on the table again.
