Mini ladd (11)
I held up my cardboard sign as I stood on the side of the road. My sign read: I'm newly divorced and my ex husband took everything I had and now I'm left homeless and on the street. Any money or really anything would help.
Many cars go by but not even one person in the cars give me a glance. Soon enough my legs grew tired and I was forced to sit down on the soggy grass.
"Ma'am?" A voice said causing me to look up at the person who had spoke.
"Yes?" I asked bringing my knees up to my chest getting cold all of a sudden.
"Since you don't have a home will you go home with me?" The guy asked grabbing on to my arm and harshly pulled me up.
"Get away from me." I said trying to smack the guy away from me.
"What do you have to lose?" He asked and shoved his hand up my shirt.
I screamed loudly trying to get someone, anyone to stop and get this man off of me.
My screams were finally answered when the guy took off my torn shirt. "She said leave her alone." Anther guy said punching the guy.
The mean man ran off a few seconds later, leaving me and my savior alone.
"Did be hurt you?" The man asked walking over to me, taking his shirt off and handing it to me once he got over to me.
I smiled at him before putting his shirt on my cold body. "Thank you and No I'm okay." I said and the man grabbed my hand, softly.
"My name is Craig and if you don't mind I'll take you to my place and I'll take care of you." He said and I shivered as rain started to hit my back.
"Are you going to do what the mean man did to me?" I asked looking up into his eyes, searching for the truth.
"No I would never do that to any woman." He said and once I was convinced he was telling the truth I nodded.
"Yes I'll go with you." I said and he smiled, walking me to his car and helping me inside the passenger seat.
When he closed the door I looked around, shivering. "So what do you do for a living?" I asked as he blasted the heat, the hot air was a huge plus from the cold rain that had hit me before.
"I'm actually a youtuber, I make gaming videos." He said getting back on the road.
"Oh really? I used to be a nurse but I can't really work looking like this." I said pointing down at my muddy, torn clothing.
"I'll get you a change of cloths." He said and I nodded.
"Thank you for being so nice. No man has ever been this nice to me not even my ex husband." I said playing with a strand of my hair.
"If he wasn't nice to you than he wasn't worth your time." Craig said and I smiled done at my lap.
"That's what my mom said before she died. I didn't listen to her but now I wished I did." I said and Craig grabbed my hand.
"I promise I will do everything I can to get you a job and a home."
"Why are you being so nice to me?"
"Because I think I might like you." After he said that the car went silent, no one said a word until we pulled into his driveway.
"I think I like you too." I said as he helped me out of his car.
Craig smiled before pulling me into a hug.
