"Promise you'll think about me being your tour guide?" as he raises his arms up as though he were high and mighty.

"Yeah, promise," I say, and my efforts of avoiding eye contact fails. After talking with him for a couple of hours, I finally saw his face, truly. His eyes were the color of a deep sienna. They were a mixture of every brown you can think of. They glowed with humor and playfulness which reflected to the corners of his mouth.

"You better. I don't do this for anyone. This'll be only for you."

I look at him one more time before walking out and leaving him alone with the magical instrument. As soon as I closed the door, I could've sworn I heard a light chuckle coming from the other side.
