July 20th, 1999.
It has been 4 days since I moved into this neighborhood, FARAWAY Town. With my grandparents of course. School hasn't started yet, but my grandparents really want me to make friends so that I don't have to be isolated again, which I'm fine with I guess. I already did kind of make friends with this blonde boy, Basil. Like the minty plant.Yesterday, Basil said that his friend named "Sunny" that his birthday was tomorrow, which is today. I asked him if we can maybe throw him a party or just take him somewhere. Basil paused and seemed uncomfortable with the idea.
"Basil? Are you okay -?" I asked
"Yes!..Yes I'm okay.." He sighed, I could notice the sadness in his voice.
"Basil, what's wrong? You can tell me anything." I look to see him as he's about to cry, poor thing is shaking. In panic I guess, he ran away.So here we are in the present, I don't know what the boy, Sunny likes. But I do know that he lives across the street from me. I've never seen really seen him besides the photos Basil had. He seems like a kind, gentle boy.
"Grandma, I'm going out to the market. I'll be right back." I say to my grandma, she's kind of half asleep but she nods yes. I kiss her forehead, get the keys and go to the market. In hopes of finding something that the boy across the street would probably enjoy.
At the market, I decided to go to the baked goods section. I spot my eyes on Fortune Cookies and Chocolate chip cookies. I'll get him those too, I think the cakes are more expensive. I go to the cash register and I hear the cashier say to me, "Hey, wanna go to the back with me after you buy your products? I have more goods in there." I try to brush it off and just buy the stuff and get a bag. The cashier seemed annoyed after I was ignoring him.
"Jesus, I was just trying to be nice."After that, I head to the boy's house, I knock at the door until a woman opened it.
"Oh! Hello, who must you be?" She says happily, she has short brown curly hair, pink dress and red lipstick.
"I'm (Y/N), your new neighbor. I heard it was your son's birthday?" I replied
"You're new here? I'm sorry I never noticed! Come in." I try not to be suspicious of her, and just go in the house. I go in and I see two pizza boxes on the table and a present.
"Sunny..! Sweetie, our new neighbor is here. Come down and see her." She sounded a bit fearful in her voice but tried to hide it with her joyful voice as she went to go knock on her son's door. She comes down as we wait for her son to come down.I see her son, Sunny. He's wearing beige trousers and a black sweatshirt, his hair is just a little bit messy and he looks like he just got out of a nap. He sees me and I see him, we make eye contact but he looks away and waves, I waved back.
"(Y/N), you're quite lucky we didn't have dinner yet, eat with us!" Sunny's mom said. I am quite hungry, and I'm pretty sure my grandparents didn't really have plans for dinner. I thank her.
"Sunny, come eat with us, you haven't really eat today." She mentioned and then grabbing her son's hand making him going to the table to eat."Our neighbor, (Y/N), even got you something for your birthday! Say thank you." Sunny's mom pleaded, Sunny then whispered a thank you and smiled, I couldn't really tell if it was an actual real smile.
We sat down, I saw 5 chairs but there was only 3 people sitting in those chairs. Me, sunny and his Mom. After we eated, she asked if I can stay for a while, which I replied with sure. We had some cake and we decided to watch a movie, we had some of the cookies for a movie snack. "Hey kids, I'll be in my room for a while. Knock on my door if you need anything, okay?" Sunny's mom said before Sunny nodded.
"Please stay with him."
She said and then walking away, Sunny probably heard. "Sunny's your actual name, right? Or is that a nickname?" I try to start a conversation with him. He looks somewhere then at me.
"No.. it's my actual name."
"Like sunny side up?"
".. You can say that, I guess."
"Hm.. wanna be friends? I've never meet anyone named Sunny." I reach out for his hand, in hoping that we can be friends and it not being awkward if he said no. He nods, as shaking my hand."Great! Um do you wanna read some fortunes?" I ask, he again nods yes. We read our fortunes, I snatch his as a jokingly manner and read his.
" There is someone trying to reconnect to you."
"Sharing a smile with someone can change your life."
" Well I'm done reading yours," I say before seeing him getting another fortune, looking at and getting his eyes widen and blushing a little bit. Then in a rush shoving it in his pocket.
"What was that?" I say at him while my hand goes to his pocket, he grabs my hand while nodding no, having his face faded with blush."Hm, fine" I then break the fortune cookie to see my fortune.
"You laugh now, wait until you go home."
Oh boy .
