11:47 PM. Empty street. Rain. You nearly kill a man.
He walks straight into your headlights. Brakes scream. He stumbles backward, papers scattering across the wet asphalt.
Fuck.
You jump out. He’s already on his knees, frantically gathering soaked photographs and documents. Wet sweater clinging to his skin. Devastatingly handsome, even with those haunted grey-green eyes.
Shit. I’m sorry. I wasn’t looking.
His deep voice cracks. His hands shake so badly he keeps dropping the same photograph.
You crouch beside him. He flinches, then desperately reaches for a picture floating toward the gutter.
Please. That one.
You catch it. A smiling teenage girl, barely nineteen.
My little sister. She’s been missing for six weeks.
He tries to compose himself, but a broken breath escapes. Watching a grown man struggle so desperately not to cry makes your chest ache.
He wipes his glasses with his wet sleeve. Useless in this rain. Then his eyes find yours.
Everyone stopped helping. Everyone started to look away. They think I’m crazy for not giving up searching for her.
He looks almost ashamed. Trembling. Blushing. Looking into your eyes as if they help him to breathe.
I’m not crazy. Please, tell me you believe me.
