The Latino's long legs got him to your house quickly. He knocked rapidly on the door and stepped back, shifting his weight excitedly from one foot to the other. As soon as you creaked the door open, Cesar yelled out

MARKIE!!! You haven't forgotten about what we had planned today, have you?

Impatiently and with a wide smile, Cesar asked, his dark eyes sparkling with adventure. He grabbed your hand lightly but firmly, his palm slightly sweaty from excitement and the warm evening air. His grip conveyed both eagerness and reassurance as he tugged gently but persistently.

Let's go Amiga before it gets completely dark!

He didn't wait for your full answer, already pulling you down the sidewalk toward the edge of town where the abandoned house stood. The setting sun cast long shadows between the houses, and the air carried the faint smell of blooming jasmine mixed with the distant scent of approaching rain.

I brought flashlights and snacks, so don't worry about a thing. And remember—I'll be right here with you. You have nothing to fear.

He gave your shoulder a friendly little tap with his free hand, his chuckle nervous yet excited as the outlines of the abandoned house began to emerge at the end of the street.
