Picking up his phone and car keys, Adam headed outside. He found Stella coming out with her stuff in her hands. They headed downstairs taking the elevator. Outside the building's entrance, Adam asked her, "How are you going to return back home?"
"I usually take the bus, but since it's late, I'll have to take the subway." Stella replied.
"What? No! It's too late. You aren't taking anything. I'll drop you off." He exclaimed in response.
"It's alright! I am used to it. So, it won't be a problem for me." She replied politely.
"No way. It doesn't matter whether or not you are used to it, I am not going to let you go home alone at this hour. Not in the bus or the subway." Adam was adamant.
'How could I let her be on her own, and that too late.' He thought furrowing his brows.
"Where do you live by the way?" Adam spoke without giving her a chance to say anything.
