Chapter 2 New neighbor

It already dark and the street light brighten up the street and we are able to see the road clearly, I stare at the building which doesn't looks likes anyone lives there.

"Isn't it weird here?"I asks Jenny.

"Yeah, it doesn't looks like people live here at all"She replied.

She ring the door bell while I carry the food bod with my two hands. There was any response after waiting for few hours so I asks her to ring it again. "Seriously, no one can get the door"I can hear a woman scold her children.

"Wow!"I breathe in, the cold hit my bare shoulder back. I was putting on an armless singlet and a short with a slippers stupid me. I didn't know it will be this cold in Georgia and more cold in the night.

The door squeak open and a woman in her early thirties walk out with apron round her waste and a messy hair.

"Good evening ma"Jenny greet, she was staring at us weirdly probably because she hasn't seen our faces before.

"Hi, how may I help you?"

"Oh we are your new neighbors and my mom asks us to bring this for you as a welcome...."She didn't even allow me to finish my statement before she fling the door open properly and a smile tug on her lips.

I exchange glance with Jenny who doesn't know what to do either.

"Come in girls, it so nice to meet you"She giggled and in a secs her attitude change towards us.

We took step in and I was amaze at our beautiful the house looks like in the Inside. It almost the same as ours but it looks like some little changes were made.

I look at the living room and a little girl and guy who look so much alike are playing games and didn't even steal a glance at the stranger in the house.

"Why are you standing there, come sit"She grab the food box from my hand and take it to the kitchen while we just stand there wondering what we should do.

"Alexandra and Alexander can you both quit the game and serve our guest a juice"she shout from the kitchen.

"Same name with me" I thought aloud to myself"That won't be necessary because we need to go back"

"Really?"She peeped from the kitchen.

"Yes, it so nice to meet you but we need to head back now"I said.

"Will you just shut up"Jenny pinch me as she whisper words to me.

"What?"I hit her.

"Hi big boys and girls"Jenny walk to the kids and it seems to catch their attention. The best way to make a kid like you is calling the big and matured because they hate been treated like a kid.

"I guess your sister wants to stay"She shrug as head back to the kitchen.

"Jenny it late we need to go back"I said to her.

"Why do you bother when our house is just beside theirs"She roll her eye playing the stupid game with the kids and my fist clenched.

"So what your name my new friends"She said to the kids ignoring me.

"Alexandra" the girl answered while she gave me this that's your namesake eyes, "is this necessary?" I whispered to her.

"Alexander"the boy said happily and I shake my head in disappointment.

"Why are you just standing there"the woman walk back to the kitchen with our empty food box.

She must have put them in the fridge for future eat probably.

"I...."

"Where is Tom?"She asks her kids taking off the apron round her waist.

"I don't know?"the cute guy shrug.

"Who is Tom?"I thought.

"My son, you can call me Rose"She replied, did I just say that aloud?.

"So What your names?"

"I am Jenny and she is Alexander" Jenny replied fast, while Mrs Rose gave me the same look Jenny gave when one of the twins said her name. "Wow I love your name"She hit my shoulder.

"Thanks ma'am"I replied.

"No call me Rose"She giggles.

Why is she giggling?.

"Oh..."I am not always comfortable calling my elderly ones names but I guess I don't have a choice with this woman.

"Thanks for having us ma....I mean Rose we will take our leaves now"I address.

"It so nice to meet you"She smiled.

I take Jenny's hand in mine and drag her with me.

"Mom, I am going out"I head a thick masculine voice just as I close the door.

"Do you hear that?"Jenny said.

"Let go home"I pull her hand and drag her out of the place.

"What is your problem"I yelled at her immediately we walk into the house fighting.

"What is wrong with you two?"Mom Interrupted

"She is the one"Jenny point at me fast.

"What a liar"I frown.

"I won't let you two stress me tonight because you know how do your thing"She walk away and my jaws drops.

My mom literally knows we fight a lot but one thing always remember is that we are best friends and should know how to settle things.

"Did she just...."I asks in disbelief but Jenny burst into laughter.

"Oh!"I cross my hand round my chest.

"Comm'n you are only over reacting I am just trying to be nice in the front of our neighbors especially now that I know there is probably an handsome guy lurking around the street and we are resuming school tomorrow"

"That is not an excuse"I frown and walk away but she jump on my back unaware and I end up laughing as I try to free myself from her.

"Don't break my furniture"Mom yelled and we both laugh harder.

"Comm'n good night"I ran up the stairs but she ran up to me and we fight for space till we got to our various rooms.

"Good night girlfriend"She blew me kiss, I roll my eye as I close the door on her face which simply means I don't want her kiss.

I sigh deeply as I slump down on my bed feeling so tired and exhausted. I drifted to my dream land after setting my alarm. I don't want to be late for school on my first day.

Around two o'clock in the midnight the breeze seems to be getting in because she had forgotten to close to her window before going to bed. She roll from one side to another feeling so cold, she groaned and sit up with a squeeze face.

"Not the right time"She angrily stand up and head to close her door but her eye caught something. "What that?"She asks herself wiping her face off to be sure she isn't dreaming.

What the hell?! her eye widened.

"Is he sneaking out by this time of the night"She muttered with her eye widened but she quickly bend down when she almost got caught staring by the guy.

Seriously?!
