After getting some medication from the pharmacy, the car headed for Eva's home. Reaching where he last dropped her the last time, he stopped, parking the car on the sidewalk. He then looked at her and asked,
"Are you sure you will be okay going alone from here?"
Eva pressed her lips into a thin line. She stared ahead in silence while he waited for her to reply.
"No," she shook her head.
The longer pain persisted, the more pain she experienced with each step. She would be a fool if she still insisted on going alone from here when there was a car that could take her right to her doorstep.
Smith nodded and restarted the engine. "Let me know when we get there," he said, and she gave a nod.
They drove a few more minutes before Eva pointed at her house. "Right here," she said, and he slowed down. "Thank you."
As soon as the engine went off, he exited the car and went around. He reached her side and opened the door while she was yet to unfasten her seat belt.
