"To write a story about someone's life you need to stand in their shoes to know what if feels like”

That's the favorite quote of the man holding a pen and writing something in his notebook, sitting in a dark alley, while looking at the other homeless person sleeping in the cold floor without warm duvet to keep them warm, it's already past 1 am and yet he's still scribbling down and ignoring the cold weather, until there's a sound of footsteps running to his direction, there's a small man running and it seems like he's in a hurry, the man sitting in a cold floor chuckled as he grab the running man and they both run, turning to a lot's of alley, the running footsteps still following them until they reach the intersection, there's a car waiting there and the other man didn't wait any second and enter the car, the other man just followed him, and they drove away, leaving the other people running after them

"Why did you help me? Who are you? Where are we going?!"

"You ask too many questions for my liking but I'll try to answer them for you, first I just want to help a pitiful soul like you, second I'm the man who helped you, third I am going home and I'll drop you somewhere, where do you want?" the other man said while driving he detached his fake beards and moustache from his face, revealing his handsome face, he also took off his eyeglasses and hat, he shuffled his hair and smirk at the man sitting in his side

"W-What's your name?"

"Well it's very confidential honey, I'm afraid I'll tell you"

"But I want to know"

"Well I want to know where I should drop you off?"

"I don't know, I'm living in streets, I don't have house"

"Do you want to stay with me?"

"Will you let me?"

"50/50, 50% yes and 50% no"

"Huh? Why?"

"Help me with my work and I'll let you live with me and I will even give you money"

"What's your work first?"

"I am a writer, I am working on a novel right now, do you like to work with me and help me to finish this novel?"

"How much?"

"I will let you live with me until I finished this story while I am also giving you 20% of the sales when I finally published this one, it's better than nothing right?"

"Why only 20%?"

"It should be 30% but like what I've said I am letting you live in my house so basically you also need to pay for it, 10% for the house and the rest 20% will be your money, you can get a house and live on your own while finding work, right?"

"Well you are right, better than nothing"

"So deal?"

"Deal"

"Okay" the driving man smirked and just drive

In the silent high way there's two people thinking differently

“Is this a right decision? but I need to learn how to stop myself, to control myself and to not fall ever again”

“Am I dragging him to my mess? Is this right? But maybe he will be the answer"

Sitting silently in a four wheeled moving car, they are battling with each their own mind, thinking if their decision is right, or they are just deciding because of their own problem....
