Next Next Door

Around the Block again

I got on my bike. This time James was going with me.

We rode past Jack and Triston. "Taylor, come here," Triston yelled at me. James looked at me confused, I told him that I had met them earlier in the day.

"Do wanna meet our siblings now? There inside. I will go get them." said Jack.
"Hold on, Jack. What are there names?" I said so I didn't embarrass myself.
"The boy is Miles and the girl is Veronica, but we call her Roni. I'll go get them."

Jack disappeared inside the house. And came out with a tall, handsome boy and a really pretty girl. "Dang," said James. I laughed.

"Hi, I'm Miles," he smiled, "so yall are new in the neighbourhood?"

"Hi, I'm Taylor. And yes we just moved here from North Carolina." I said with a smile. He is really cute. "And this is James, my older brother."

"This is Roni she is my older sister. How old are you James?"
"Seventeen. What about you, dude?" Asked James.
"I'm fifteen. but Roni is Seventeen." Said
"Can't you speak for yourself, Roni?" Asked James. He laughed

James gave Roni a look. She gave a frowned/smirked.
I was confused. Why wasn't she talking?

"Um, Roni can't talk. She can hear but not talk. She was born that way."
"Oh, I'm so sorry. I...uh....didnt know," he was red.
"We're gonna get going. Bye Miles and Roni!" I said to get out of the awkwardness.

"I feel so bad!" Said James.
"It's okay. Let's just go home."

We passed by those boys playing basketball again.

"Hey come here!" One of the boys yelled.
