"I'll call someone to drive you back home safely," he said, only to realize it was a check that Alec was holding. He pulls a pen and signs on it.
"Wait—"
"Here's my payment for you, good night."
"Alec!—"
He put the check on the table but I didn't mind it. It was the very first time I didn't look forward towards having money. I could've take that and leave everything behind but I don't know where my mind, hand, and my body is taking me, making me chase Alec.
I know I need his money, but I also need answers.
Before he decided to leave, Alec reach for his glass and pull something outside to his pocket one more time. That's where I noticed a red pill on his palm. He drink it immediately along with the water and leave after like nothing happened. Like I was not existing. I watch him walk in a separate direction.
