Feel secure

A: I don't dare to go home at midnight, it's very dangerous.
B: Don't worry, I'll take you home, you'll be perfectly safe, do you feel secure now?

- Do A and B sound natural?

Thanks very much to Teachers,

They sound natural, but you need to rework the punctuation. A could be two sentences. B could be four sentences.

  • They sound natural, but you need to rework the punctuation.

  • " Beware the comma splice.
  • ", is acceptable, but I'm not sure how to justify it.

They sound natural, but you need to rework the punctuation. A could be two sentences. B could be four sentences. The question, at least, must be a separate sentence, and probably the "you'll be perfectly safe."

Beware the comma splice.

It seems like "Don't worry, I'll take you home.", is acceptable, but I'm not sure how to justify it.

Merry Christmas! - A.
