One Step Closer

"What do you want?" - I asked hesitantly.
The boy looked at me with his piercing blue eyes and he just shook his head.
"From you, I want nothing!" - he answered without a beat.
"But you were the one who asked for help!" - answered him, making sure not to let him closer to the door.

He won't get away from me this time.

"Listen - I said as calm as I could -, please let me help you out. I can give you accommodation for a while, or money, but I want to know that you are safe. " - I tried to plead with him, and I hoped it will work.
"You can't live on the street forever ." - I looked him straight in the eyes, and wondered what those eyes hold. He didn't seem to be focused today, like other days, he always had an answer , no matter how much I tried to help him, he always refused my help. "
