"your home is my home" he said and she opened her mouth in awe, suprised at what he just said. She waved to the cab man to leave and he did.
"my home is your home, how?" she asked and he nodded his head and she scoffed.
"hey mister, look here" she said and Calohun looked down at her
"Calohun" he said
"well Mr Calohun, you are not my ideal type of man, You are the complete opposite of the type of men I like
"I don't have a place to go" he said, ignoring what she said
"you are really homeless?"
"hm" he muttered
"you don't have a home, you don't have a family, then what do you have?" she asked and waited for his reply, but she didn't get any from him and she continue talking. "Well, I will help you because am a nice and simple lady but you saying my home is your home is very inappropriate". She said and waved her hands. She scanned him with her eyes, looking at his hair down to his cloth then his shoes and cleared her throat. "We living together alone is very inappropriate but I will allow you stay at my place for one month, during that period, you should get a job to support yourself, I will not allow you to stay more than a month"she said and he nodded his head
"won't you say thank you?"
"Thank you" he muttered and she scoffed. She waved down another taxi and they boarded it. As they got inside the taxi, Calohun opened his mouth in awe. When the police arrested him, they had rode on something like this and he had wondered what it was. He slowly caressed the seat feeling it's softness and smiled, the human world is really different from his own, he thought to himself. Back in their realm, they rode on horses and carriage, with curiosity, he turned to face the human lady beside him and she was looking outside through the window and he did the same and the breeze blew his face, whipping his air, he looked around and stared at the vehicles passing by in amazement. He looked away from the window and landed his gaze back on the human lady. "What are these things" he asked pointing to the cars moving on the road, through the window. Eliza sat up and scratched her eyebrows, trying to process his question. "they are cars' she replied, still suprised that he asked her such a weird question.
"so the one we are in too, is also a car" he asked and Eliza widned her eyes in amazement,
"you can call it a taxi" she said and he nodded his head.
"you travel by this here?"
"Hm" she answered and concluded in her heart that he was insane. But is it appropriate to accommodate a mad man, she thought and sighed. James would kill her if he find out. She closed her eyes then opened it and looked up at the man beside her, then her eyes fell on his purple lips and she gulped down her spit, she didn't notice it before, even when James told her his lips were purple, she had thought he was joking, but his lips are actually purple. Out of curiosity, she moved closer to him, closing the Gap between them and raised her hand to his lips and she stroked his lips with her thumb startling him with her sudden action. She brought down her hand and stared at her thumb in amazement, there was no stain on it and his lips, they were still purple in colour, she had thought it was lipstick and literally wanted to wipe it off, but it looks like it wasn't and that got her more curious,she raised her hand to his lips again and before she could touch them, Calohun grabbed hold of her wrist.
"What are you doing?" he asked and let go of her hand
"nothing, is your lips actually purple in colour?" she asked and he nodded
"that's strange" she said and sat back down properly, millions of questions ran through her mind. How can someone lips be purple, she thought to herself and shook her head in confusion.
