"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked that , I was just shocked"i said and he didn't say anything .

"It's your turn,but it's fine if you dont wanna play anymore i mean-"i babbled

"Why are you so attached to it?"he asked, making me confused.

"What?"

"Why are you so attached to the stuffed animal?" he said referring to Mr Green and I looked away,embarrassed of what he might have thought,  seeing an eighteen year old with a teddy bear. He narrowed his eyes.

"It was a gift, why?"i said, blushing and he narrowed his eyes further, as if analysing my reaction.

"Okay,Time for you to leave."

"What? why?" I said as he flipped the sign to the 'closed' side. " Why are you flipping the sign?. It's not yet six-thirty, is it?"

"Hey, why aren't you answering me?.Hello, Have you forgotten that I'm still here?"i said, following him, while he packed his things.

"You might want to get your things before I lock up "he says heading for the door without looking back. I quickly  grabbed my things and followed him to the door.

"Hey , What are you doing?, why are you locking up? ,it's not even 6:30 yet .Are you even allowed to do this as an employee?"

"I have somewhere to go to"he said without looking at me and  finishing up the bolts on the door.

"Where are you going ? We haven't even finished our twenty questions yet".I whined.

"We just did" and just like  that,  he left to go to the car park.leaving me shocked that we actually did just finish. Literally. Well played,sir.

As I walked down the sidewalk, a horn stopped  me in my tracks and when I turned to see who it was,my eyes widened like saucers at the sight of a shinny blackish purple Bentley and as usual, my jaw dropped for the the third time, this evening. I deserve an award. A ‘ jaw dropping’ one. wink wink.Anyway.

"Are you going to  stand there,staring all evening or are you gonna  to hop in" Mr Rude said with a smirk and I quickly composed myself and got in.

"What the-"

"I know" he said with a chuckle.The seat was warm and comfy.the interior design was just amazing.The ride home was quiet but I didn't care cause my mind was flooded with questions like . ‘How could a gym instructor afford this type of car?. I mean ,I have nothing against gym instructors but a Bentley?!!,come on. If being a gym instructor  would give me enough money to buy a  Bentley,  then a gym instructor I shall be.Orr ouuu I know!. Maybe he's  a drug dealer.Nah, I doubt.Although he's  so quiet, he could be one’. I narrowed my eyes at him. As if noticing the tension in the car,he put on the mp3 player. A song by marshmallow  blasted through the speakers.

"SHUT UP!!you listened to marshmallow?!!!"I exclaimed  and he just looked at me and I looked at him, waiting for an answer.

"What?you said I should shut up"he said

"It was an expression!"he just laughed amusedly and looked away. I directed him to my house and five minutes later, we arrived.

"This is your  house?"he asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yup, is something  wrong?"I asked, a bit insecure. I mean my house was homey but wasn't small at all ,neither was it really massive.

"No, no, it's homey"he said with a smile.

"Well thanks, I guess and thanks for the ride"i said,coming down.

"No problem" he said and before he could drive off, I told him that we would continue the game one of theses days but he didn't answer. He just smiled and drove off.

And I entered my house smiling  too ,only to see the shocked look on my mum's face. I quickly  ran upstairs  before she could ask why a Bentley pulled up in front of her house.i got ready,got into my bed and slept. Dreaming about people with nice smiles.
