°POV:EDITH°
"Father, we have invited the new neighbors for dinner today"I informed him as I took his coat." we got new neighbors? That is wonderful. Did you arrange everything for dinner" Father asked."yes, I did." I exclaimed. He chuckled at me and went into the kitchen.
A few hours later~
We heard the bell ring and went near the door to welcome the neighbors in. I was surprised to see that handsome boy again. "It is a pressure to meet you, Mr.Wilson," said Mr. Thompson. " It is a pleasure meeting you too Mr. Thompson. ".They shook their hands. Father led them to the kitchen. "I'm sorry, I couldn't bring anything for dinner since we moved today," said Mrs. Thompson handing the beard to Mother. "oh please! You don't have to worry about that." Mother said.
We all sat at the table. I glanced at the boy and we made eye contact. I hastily looked away. I did not dare to lift my head the whole dinner.
My father and Mother bid the neighbors while I was looking through the window, upstairs. The boy looked up and I hid as quickly as I could.
That night~
'I can't sleep. What do I do? Why do I keep thinking about him?' I tossed around the bed.
The next day~
I woke up from the bed and looked out from the window. The sunrise was so beautiful.
I got up from the bed and went in the washroom. I brush my teeth and took a bath.I choose to wear a marron dress. After doing my hair I went downstairs."Good morning mother" I said to mother and gave a kiss. "Good morning honey" My mother said "come and help me prepare breakfast." She countinued. "What are you preparing mother?" I asked. " Grilled bacon with potato slices and omelette". My mother replied.
Later~
While my Mother was sending off Father and I took off the plates from the table and kept them in the sink. I took the dishwashing liquid and started washing the dishes.
I glanced at the window and saw the boy again.'why is my heart is beating so fast?? Am I sick? Omg what do I do?? ' the boy looked at me. And I hurriedly duked down. And slowly looked through the window. I saw him get inside the house. I sighed and looked at the house.
Someone hit my head and said" stop daydream and clean the dishes properly." My mother said."I am doing it!" I protest." I am going to go to Mrs. Thompson's house and come back soon, you stay here and continue with the work. Ok?" My mother said."Alright Mother."I said.I continued to wash the dishes. After finishing the dishes I went to the living room and turned on the television and started to sweep the house.'I still need to hang the laundry, dust the cupboards,I also need to pluck the weeds.'I thought and continued to sweep.
My favourite show 'The Trials of Rosie O'Neill ' came on the television. I ran towards the living room as fast as I could and sat on the couch.
A few moments later~
I got startled by someone knocking at the door. I got up from the couch reluctantly and went to answer the door. I opened the door but no one was there, I looked around just to make sure. I shrugged and Thought it was my imagination. I went back to the living room and The boy was looking through the window and was smiling at me.
