"luke calm down, it'll be okay. it'll just take a few minutes," i heard a woman's voice say. i looked up from my phone to see a lady with a boy who looks about my age. he looked like he was close to tears.

"mom i-i can't," the boy stuttered out. "i'll be in the car," the boy said, tears already escaping from his eyes. he quickly ran out of the store and towards the parking lot.

i wanted to go outside and ask him what's wrong, but it's none of my business.

i continued looking for all the items that my mom ordered me to get. we have new neighbors that just moved in today and she invited them over for dinner.

i quickly grabbed the pasta sauce, the pasta, the chicken, and all the other stuff. i also got some chips because i'm craving some right now.

i went to go the register. the lady from earlier was in front of me, talking on the phone.

"i think we should just leave him at home. yeah i know, but you know how he is. he just freaked out at the store. i just think it's best if he stays at home. okay okay bye," the lady said and hung up.

i knew i shouldn't have listened to her conversation, but i did anyways.

she quickly paid and left the store with her groceries. i paid and grabbed my bags. i unlocked my car and drove home.

"mom, i'm home," i yelled as i entered my house. i put the grocery bags down on the floor.

she quickly came downstairs.

"thanks michael. are you going to help me cook?" she asked me as started boiling water. i shook my head.

"i'm going to go shower, sorry mom," i said and she nodded.

i headed upstairs and went into my room. i grabbed my towel and outfit. i headed towards the bathroom.

i stripped off my clothes and took a nice long warm shower.

after about thirty minutes later, i turned off the water and started dying myself. i put on my boxers. i put on my blue flannel and black skinny jeans.

i exited the bathroom and went inside my room. i put on deodorant and dried my hair.

i was watching south park, until my mom called me from downstairs.

i went downstairs. she was in the kitchen and the food was ready. chicken alfredo and a nice caesar salad.

"set up the table please?" she asked me and i nodded. i put all the plates and stuff.

the door bell rang. my mom and i headed towards the door. she opened it. and there standing in front of us was the lady from the store and three boys, her sons.
