The day between the soil and the sky
An emptiness, a void, a heaviness, a sigh
But I know you will make through alive
Cause you never said goodbye

The drive was quiet. He was driving in silence, keeping his eyes on the road while I was riding shotgun. I didn't expect a conversation either, considering we were both strangers. Even though what happened tonight seemed to be the longest three chapters of my life, I hardly knew him, maybe I only knew one or two things about him. One, he was an ass. Two, he was a charming but arrogant pain in the ass.
I saw the metro station in front and pointed it with my forefinger. "You can drop me there...." He didn't slow down. "Now it's behind us," I watched the station as we drove past it. I turned to face him, penetrating him with a stare that I hoped could make a hole in the side of his head. He stole a glance at me and our eyes locked for a brief second.
