Very Early the next morning, there was a knock at the door
"Pat, go get the door, will you?" my mother shouted. I sighed inwardly and went to get the door.
"Hi, my name's Audrey, I'm the new neighbor " was what greeted my ear. I couldn't believe it. Audrey Walters aka Princess of the Town was on my door step "Can we be friends?" shoot me!!
I didn't mean it literally but then...…
She smiled at me, her cheeks flushing a light pink color, maybe makeup, maybe natural, all I know is that there was an Angel on the doorstep of my Home.
"Pat, who's that?" my mother's voice brought me back to reality. "Uhm..."
Do I tell her it was the Princess or an Angel?
"The Walters" I replied, even though it sounded rude in my ears. Audrey smiled, like she was impressed and I found myself wanting to impress her further.
My mother ran into the living room and for the first time, I felt ashamed of my own mother. She had flour on her. What if she got it on Audrey?
"Hey" Audrey greeted, waving at my mom like they had met before. I looked at me mom to find her blushing. Rolling my eyes, I welcomed Audrey. She simply waltzed into the room and sat on the Sofa, "Oh, it's so soft "
I kept looking at the door, half expecting it to burst open with at least ten military personnels coming in to stay with Audrey but nothing happened. Instead she replied with, "Don't worry, they won't be coming here"
"What can I get you?" my mother asked.
"Oh, I'm fine." she replied calmly.
How can she be so comfortable in a stranger's home?
My Mother came close, giving me a shove in her direction. "Go on, keep her company"
"Please, I would be back, I want to brush my teeth". I turned around, not wanting to waste her time, or maybe from embarrassment, because that sounded cringe, I could as well have told her that I wanted to poo.
She stood up, "I am coming with you". I stopped abruptly, my mom seemed to question me, her eyes darting, looking me straight in the eye. I already knew what she was asking, "Was my room clean?"
The room was silent, air tense until she spoke again, "Thats if you don't mind"
"Oh, she doesn't" my mother answered for me, pushing me up the stairs. I walked backwards all the way up, hoping she wouldn't trip or hit her leg somewhere.
When we got to my room, she quickly rushed to sit on the bed, crossing her leg in the middle of the bed. "Your mom is so cool" she said looking around . I took my time washing my mouth while glancing at her with my side eye.
"Thanks" I said wiping my mouth.
"Come, sit with me" she said patting the space beside her.
"What are you doing here?" I asked, curiosity getting the better version of me.
"I was bored at home and have seen you around, thought we could be friends . Or wouldn't you like it? "
Very much! How do I explain to her that she's made my year on earth worthwhile. I nodded instead.
"So that's your room?" I asked pointing at the drawn curtains across my window.
"Why?" she asked instead. I thought I saw a frown for a split second .
"Uhm….. whoever sleeps there is always staring at me every night".
She looked at the drawn curtains across my room window and back at me smiling, "Oh, it's just my Older brother, Charles "
Charles?? Asin Charles Walter?
That I masturbate almost every night to? Every girl's spec?. The same Charles??
Ohh, Genevieve is so going to have a fit.
