Outside, there were a lot of car headlights from all directions. Car door slammed, motor whined and  noise from different people.

I trailed Stanley until we came across a motorbike.

He handed me a helmet.

"Wait!"

"Are we travelling by this?" I asked in shock.

"Yes!"

"Why ?"

"Is there a problem with it?"he asked surprised looking at the motorbike.

"No! there is no...it's just that I have never been carried by one before. Am just a bit scared." I said.

"Don't be, I will drive safely just trust me!"he said in reassurance.

"Okay then." I said convinced.

"Hey! give me a second."he said.

"Where are you going?I asked curiously.

"I will be back, I promise not to take long."he said.

He rushed back into the house.

It's so cold out here.... I said to myself shivering.

I wonder what made him go back....

"Did he forget something ?"

And If so what could that be.....

I was so carried away by my thoughts,  I could not even notice him approach.

"Take this and wear it will be so cold on the motorbike." he said startling me from my thoughts and handing me a black hood.

"Thank you." I replied wearing it.

"Okay then!"

"Shall we go?" he asked.

"Yeah! sure!" I replied.

He held my hand as he helped me up the motorbike.

I then wore the helmet.

"Hold me tight and make sure to let not go." he said.

The sound of it made me even more scared. I tightened my grip on him.

He smelled of cigarettes though his cologne overtook the smell of it.

His cologne was sweet, fruity reminding me of the aroma of a freshly sliced peach.

A row of street lamps waved their yellow flames in the gloom. Stars winked like sequins on a dark velvet gown.

"Turn left."

"Drop me where you will see a blue gate." I said.

From a far I could notice some lit windows in houses.

"Here we are?"

I heard him say.

"Thank you very much for riding me home." I said handing him over the helmet.

"It's nothing." he replied.

"I hope to see you again soon." he said.

"I hope so too." I replied.

"Ooh! Before I forget ...... I said removing the hood.

"No! You can keep it for now."he said stopping me from removing it.

"Okay then"

"Goodnight." I said waving.

"Goodnight too." he said as he left.

Jayne was still a sleep so I tip-toed  up to my room I did not want to wake her up.

The only sound I could hear was from the kitchen the persistent

drip

drop

drip

of leaking tap.

Finally I was in my room, I changed into my pajamas and jumped into bed.

Uuuh!

I let out a sigh.

It was such a wearisome night, because of that it did not take me long before I fell into a deep sleep.
