LEGS FOR DAYS

His eyes were like those bright green mosses we where never allowed to touch in middle school yet with a creamy hue. I couldn't really make out the colour of his hair in the car so much for the dark interior but I could tell it had this I just had sex look to it ..... a little rumpled with a strand coming down to his left eye.

"Hey!" His hard eyes were still trained on me and I couldn't help but shiver.

"Hey!!!"
I plopped on my elbow and wiped the drool at the corner of my mouth. I wasn't really sure if it was from the quuck nap or from the intense oggling. "Ummmm who are you? Where is Owen?" I raised my undex finger almost poking him in the eye with my pink acrylic nail. The proximity was quite weird for two strangers and it made me more edgy second by second. Thank God I wasn't white if not I would have been pink all over.

"Who am I?? I asked you the question first? What are you doing in my truck?"

"Don't speak to me in that tone. Is this a prank? Where is Owen for God's sake?" I screeched annoyingly hoping for Owen to pop out ftom nowhere and save the day.Mr Stranger got out of his car and I heard the back door open. I hurriedly reached for my sunglasses to shield my eyes from the bright California sun.
He sighed heavily hoping to draw my attention " I don't know who you are or what you're doing in my truck but I would like you to get out. Look" He gestured towards the dingy old building in front of us "That's a motel. You can spend the day there,eat, get some rest,make sone friends and probably call someone to pick you up."

I took a second look at the building . It had a cracked walls, little vines growing from one end to the other not the attractive ones you have in your garden rather the ones you see in a horror movie. I smelled the stench of pee and ammonia.

Wait is that a snake???

Ooohhhh just a worn out cable. I breath a sigh of relief as I turned back to my only hope of getting out of here.He has got to be kidding me. I huffed like a spoilt teenager as I tightened the seatbelt around my waste." Ain't no one gonna kick me out of this vehicle till Owen comes. If this is a joke, I just want to let you know that this is not the first of April. Don't try shit with me boy!"

I looked back and saw him carrying my luggage out of his trunk.
This is not a joke alright!

"Pleaseeeee! Pretty pretty pleaseee! Don't leave me here." I started to fake cry just to get Abel to drive me out of the disgusting motel.

Yup! That's his name.

Abel.

He didnt behave like one though. Even his appearance looked like a cain.
" I am sorry Luiz it's not happening."

"It's not Luiz its Louise." I rolled my eyes at his measly attempt to deviate from the topic.

"I don't trust you. You might be a con artist or a hooker. Or anything apart from innocent. Most of all none of these adds up. If you are as rich as you tell me why can't you use your car or something."

"I am not a fucking hooker!"I threw my hands on the car to maintain my balance after the heels started to weaken my balance. It was rather infuriating trying to convince this thwart that I meant no harm. Trying to convince him to continue the journey will take a little more effort.

"So that's all you picked from what I have been saying."" Yes,that's the only thing that rung through dearie. Okay how about I pay you."

"I don't need your money."He fluttered his long eylashes making sure the disdain in his words rang through. He was a tough nut to crack for sure but if I could leave with my mom I could definitely mould this one here. He threw his car keys into his pockets and strutted off leaving me to drown in my tears.
