S.n's P.o.v

I finish packing all my stuff back to each suitcase and leave, i message the owner a bittersweet text asking him to give my money back as soon as he could, so i could at least rent a new house, Eduardo leaves in a dark green car, i just stand there, not knowing where to go

I sit on the sidewalk, i just can't believe i lost the only opportunity i had of living in a nice house around here

I feel my eyes slowly tearing up

Where the fuck am i gonna live? what will i do when night falls?

I feel a hand in my shoulder

I look back, to see his face again

— S.n?

— Edd!?

Edd sits beside me

— What are you doing here? and what's wrong? – Edd asks in a very gentle manner

— Well i just... lost the only house i could've rented here...

— Oh! so you were the next door neighbor who moved in recently?

— Oh...? you were...actually my neighbor this whole time? — I say

— Heh...ironic isn't it? — Edd says, looking at me

— Eh...Well...not anymore! i just got kicked out anyways... i have nowhere to go... — I start choking back my tears again

— Hey! i have an idea! why don't you come live with me? At least until you find a new house, i have a spare room there

— Uhm... thats a good idea but...im not sure... — i get apprehensive, why is he so kind?

— Don't worry, i know it's weird but- i really don't want you roaming around homeless, i'm not a sexist fuck you know?  i just don't want anyone with bad intentions reaching you before i could

....

— I... kinda know what you're feeling, i was kicked out before... i think you are actually pretty cool and i wanted to help... of course, if you feel comfortable! — Edd says playing with his hands 

I feel more comfortable just for the fact he asked if i was comfortable

— Heh... it's cool to hear that you want to help!

He smiles gently

— So... what can you do to make me trust you? — We get up from the side walk

— Well... i can give you a shovel and if you feel uncomfortable, you knock me out!

I chuckle

— Okay then

I give him a friendly shoulder punch

I don't wanna be kidnaped in Canada, But he seems genuine enough, and i have no other way out of this

— I know you've answered it before, just making sure, You're 17, right? — Edd asks me
