“What the hell?”
I demanded.
“What?”

“I dont know you. So why are you trying to help me, why do you care about me?”
My voice was weak, but had acidic properties.

“Well?”
I asked, impatient.
“You’re different. You’re different than anything I’ve ever seen. You constantly looked terrified. You looked like you were in pain. And I’m different to”
Dead on.
