Did you know that time fly when you're in a good company. That's what happen with us right now.
We talked about all and nothing but he didn't say a lot about himself as I wanted him to.

"Okay time to go now it's almost..." he watched his phone " jeez it's 11:13 p.m"

"Really ???" I watched my phone.

"Yeah. I thought it was still 8"

" Tsss " I punched his arm.

"I need to drive you home or your mom will kill me" he said

"It's going to be two death for today then"

"I better drive"

"You better" I confirm.

He drove us back and on our way my eyes feel heavy. I didn't see that we were already next where he picked me earlier when he stopped the car.

"Kahleel... Kahl ?"

"Uhm" I mumble

"You're here girl"

"Oh..."

He took off his seat belts and open the car door by my side.

"Now you can't say that I wasn't a gentlemen" he said

"Too late to prove it"

"You wa..."

"Nah it's okay I can walk myself home" I cutted him

"I didn't even..." he looked at the way that I'll take to go back home " but it's too dark"

" I know. But I'll be fine, by the way it's my neighborhood. It's about you that I'll worry about with your car and all"

"Really ?" He asks

"Yeah they'll shoot you. Guys from here don't play with stranger. "

"Nah you're kidding" He laugh

"Yeah but it's half true. They won't shoot or something but they can steal or I don't know especially with people with car like yours" I explain

"Ah looks like you live in Favelas"

"Don't start naming my neighborhood. Go home it's better. I'll be fine. I'll let you know when I'll be home"

"O... okay" he mumble

"Night Tyler" I smiled at him.

"So... no goodnight kiss ?"

"You're not 6 years old" I rolled my eyes.

"C'mon just one"

"Next time" I start to walk.

"Promise?"

"I'm not promising something after a day like this" I answered

"I won't move if I don't hear a 'promise' by you"

"Then die" I laugh

"Seriously? " he ask perplexed

"Go home Tyler"

I don't know if he heard it. I was still walking entering through the darkness of this alley but didn't hear him starting his car, no talking, nothing.
I looked back at him and wanted to call but something told me not to. He didn't move and didn't say a word. I looked back again and I saw that he wasn't looking at me but somewhere else. My first reflex was to come back and when I was able to have the perfect view of what was happening.  I saw some guy walking towards him. They're some drunk guys from our neighborhood
