He is still there when I get home. He cleaned the whole place including my toilet. He arranged my kitchen stuff better than how I did it. A warm food is ready waiting for me.
"You don't have to do this. You can just when yoyu already feel better. Instead of moving around, this could probably delay your recovery." I told him in neutral tone.
"I just want to be somehow useful to you, to show my gratitude for letting me stay." He answered gratefully.
"You don't have to. Just promise to leave as soon as you can." I answered.
"It's still raining I have no where to go." He informed me in soft voice.
"That's not my problem actually. I just don't want to see you dead in my doorstep so I let you in. But you are still a stranger to me, how ever frequent I see you, I still don't know you." I told him while eating the vegetable soup he prepared.
"My name is Arman by the way." He introduced himself.
"Ok!" I answered shortly.
"What is your name?" He asked curiously.
"It's none of your business." I replied. He is left silent with my answer. He is somehow embarased that he needs my help. I thought he is thick skinned because he acts like a brusk on our innitial encounters. I gave him more tshirts that I'm no longer using so he can take when he leaves tomorrow and show the medicines at the kitchen cabinet for him to take so he can get better. I went directly to my room after saying these things. I went to work without waking him up in the morning. I left him a message on the table saying. "Hope you're gone when I get home!". I worked the whole day it's friday my boss is rushing a lot of documents before we end this week. So I'm so drained especially during friday night. As I opened the door. Arman is still on the couch already sleeping. I'm so disappointed that he didn't follow my note. I can just wake him up and throw him outside he is probably just pretending to be asleep. I check his temperature out of curiousity he is no longer sick. I shook my hand after disgusted of touching the forehead of a stranger. I went to the kitchen to get myself something to eat. I opened the cabinet to see all the medicines are open. I check what did he consumed. All the cough syrup are gone total of 4 bottle. That is probably the reason why he is sleeping. He will be definitely drowsy after drinking 4 bottles of cough syrup. I came close to Arman again to check if he is high or if he committed suicide. I opened his 1 eye to check if he is responsive to light using my finger but he didn't respond. Is possible that he is overdosed by cough syrup. Can that kill him. I already started to cry. I called Tristan my neighbor to tell him about a friend who took 4 bottles of cough syrup to commit suicide.
"Tristan I need you please come home."
"What happened?" I told him the situation on the phone. I'm sound so worried on the phone so he ordered me to calm down and wait for him, he will be home by 2:30 in the morning. He asked me to watch my friend carefully before he comes home.
