Leah had a glass of water in her hand, and she smiled up at me as she ran her right index finger around the top of the glass. I sat down across from her with so many questions in my mind. However, again, no words formed and I sighed.

"I know what you're thinking." She said.

I looked at her and arched an eyebrow. "Do you?"

"I'm 22." She said, smirking. "That's all I'll tell you. You're not ready to hear anything else quite yet."

"So I'll be seeing you?" I said as curiosity began to build again.

"Maybe. It depends." She stopped running her finger along the glass.

"On?" I asked. She knew what she was doing. Just how to break me.

She pointed to me. "You know the answer."

I leaned back in my seat and adjusted my black leather coat. "I guess." I said, trying not to let her get to me.. but I knew it was too late.

"So when are you leaving?" I asked, but she just smiled.

"Whenever you decide to go, I guess."

"I'll be here for a while," I responded, "You sure you want to stay?"

She was still smiling. "C'mon it'll be fun!"

I wanted to laugh because she was so cute. I realized there was definitely something different about her. She wasn't like anyone else, male or female here in town.

"Well, I have one more shift tonight." I said. "After that, I was gonna go, but I'll stay."

Again, she just smiled.
