The Perfect Accident

The New Neighbor

CRASH

It was around 2:33 am when I heard it. My eyes fluttered opened and I quickly sat up to look outside my window. I saw a bunch smoke and fire, I was about to call the police but something quickly caught my eye. A spaceship..? Am I dreaming? No it can't be possible. I know I believe in aliens but this is INSANE. Is this actually real? I dropped it and just figured I was dreaming, so I went back to sleep.

BEEP BEEP BEEP

I was awoken by my alarm, angrily, I slammed down on the stop button that appeared on my phone. "Kimmie come here!" I heard my mom shout from the other side of the house "Coming!" I replied. I shot up from my bed and rummaged through my closet for some decent but comfortable clothes to put on. I decided to wear an all black t-shirt with the words 'Extraterrestrial Being' and a small ufo on the front. Then I chose to wear galaxy tights with it. I will admit, I am OBSESSED with aliens and outer space.

I made it to the kitchen and sat in one of the chairs infront of my mom. "You called?" I questioned, wondering what she could possible want. "I have some exciting news!" She said ecstatically "And what is that?" I sat up from my slouching position curiously with an eyebrow raised slightly. "We have some new neighbors who just moved in next door!" She clapped. My jaw dropped, literally. It's been so long since we had new neighbors, mainly because the part of town I live in is sketchy and weird. "I heard they have a kid your age" She teased. I scoffed "Okay mom, I'm gonna go back to my room now" As I was getting up she grabbed my arm and pushed me back onto the chair "You're not going anywhere, you're gonna go greet them and take them these cookies I baked for them." She spoke and suddenly pulled out a tray of 12 cookies from behind herself. "Well if you want me to greet them I have to go to their house, and going to their house technically means I'm going somewhere" I shrugged. "You know what I mean" She glared. I put my hands up in defense and took the tray of cookies shortly after. "Bye now" I waved while walking out the front door and to my new neighbors house.

As I was walking I noticed a strange hole in the middle of the street, it was huge compared to every other pothole in the road. It reminded me of that dream I had last night, and surprisingly it was the same shape as the spaceship I saw too. Thankfully it was just a dream, I think.

KNOCK KNOCK

I finally made it to their house and soon enough someone opened the door. It was a very kind looking woman, or so I thought. "What do you want?" She groaned, glaring down at me and stomping her foot in frustration. "Uh hello, I'm Kim and I live across the street from you. My mom made some cookies to welcome you into our neighborhood" I spoke nervously, holding the tray out in front of me. She looked down in disgust but eagerly took the tray and shooed me away. Rude..especially for a first impression. As I was walking off I noticed someone staring at me from the window. It seemed to be a..boy? Probably that mean lady's son, best not to get involved with any of the family members. I turned around and decided to go to a nearby park.

It was around 5:00 and I sat on a slide contemplating about life, right now was the time all the parents would leave to go home with their children. A couple minutes later, I was the only one left in the deserted park, atleast that's what I thought.
