He's quick and quiet, running in the treetops and stooping down low. I sense him but don't let his hopes down. I walk up my driveway unaccompanied and turn around. Surprisingly he's not there. I turn back around and am startled by a man in black.
I curiously try to lift his mask up but he pulls away. I giggle but try to hold it in. He climbs up my front steps backwards, eyeing me cautiously. I watch him silently. He opens my door and flicks on the light. He walks in and holds his hand out for me.
I reach for it steadily and grab it. He pulls me into his arms and smiles. "Who are you?" I ask shyly. He pulls off his gloves slowly as he keeps smiling. He grabs my hands, pulls me into my bedroom, and sets me on my bed. I ask again. "Who are you?" Still, he remains silent.
He gets up for a second and leaves my room. He comes back in wearing jeans and a tee-shirt, but still wearing his face mask. I look at him closely. His eyes are dark but seem to care. He bends down in front of me and leans close to my face.
He moves towards my ear and whispers so low that it tickles, but I don't say anything. "I am your undercover ninja. I will always watch over and protect you. Goodbye." I turn to look at him but he is no where to be found. I smile though, because I know he can see me.
