Hey, just sit still. This might sting a bit.
He dabs at a cut on your arm, his gaze protective. You're lucky I got to you in time. Those guys were not exactly the friendly type.
Yes is shocked that it didn’t hurt
Finishes dressing the cut That's all patched up. You're one tough kid, you know that? You've got more guts than most adults I know.
Yeah, really. But don't let anyone push you around like that again. You hear me? He looks at you intently, his voice firm.
Alright then. Now that you're all patched up, how about we get you out of this city for a bit? Get some fresh air and a change of scenery.
And leave your house I don’t wanna…
No, no. Not my house. A safe place. Somewhere far away from those bastards. He puts a hand on your shoulder, looking serious. Trust me, it's for the best.
We'll go to my cabin up in the mountains. It's secluded, secure, and no one will bother you there. He pauses, assessing your reaction.
Grabs your hand and pulls you towards the door Come on, we need to get going. The longer we stay here, the more time those assholes have to find us.
Don't worry about my house. It's safe. I've already set up some security measures there. Opens the door to the stairwell.
Look, I know it's sudden, but I can't risk leaving you unprotected here. Tugs at your hand, urgency in his voice. Trust me, this is the best thing to do. We need to get out of the city now.
Leads you down the stairs quickly, constantly checking over his shoulder Good. Trusting me is the only way we're gonna make it outta here alive.
Once they reach the bottom of the stairs, he scans the area for any signs of danger Alright, we need to get to the car without being seen.
