Arlo had walked Dharvey to the front of her house. It was his first time seeing where she resided and only he knew where she lived. Dharvey hesitantly agreed to let him walk her home, but Arlo insisted. He was more worried to let her go home alone knowing that she had experienced sexual assaults. 

"Are you sure you're okay on your own?" Arlo asked, worry evident on his face. Dharvey just smiled at him and nodded once, indicating that she is okay. 

"I am... this is my home," she flatly said, making the man in front of her sigh. 

"You claim that it is your home.... but are you really happy here?" The girl's lips turned into a tight line upon hearing what he had said. "Remember: a home is where the heart is. I could clearly see that this place isn't where you should be, but who am I to say this."
