"crystal you're still not up yet?" her father walks into her bedroom, the blonde girl still fast asleep, he grabs a pillow from her chair and chucks it at her face in an attempt to wake her up, she stirs a little but goes back to sleep, "get up you lazy tart." her father laughs and walks over to her, "crystal." she stirs again but still doesn't wake up, he notices a glass of water on her bedside table and picks it up, "if you wake up now i won't pour this water on you." crystal doesn't wake up so her father just pours the water on her head.
the girl immediately wakes up, "dad!" she sits up, "what the hell?" crystal whines, "i need you to take the trash out," and with that he leaves her bedroom closing the door behind him, she quickly stands up and gets dressed into a comfy jumper and some jeans, crystal walks back over to her bed and realises that she's going to have to change the sheets, "i hate you dad." she yells, "aww love you too duck" he says back to her, his small Scottish accent peeping through that had since faded since he had came to America over 30 years ago.
crystal leaves her bedroom with her bedsheets and her blankets in her hand, "you're lucky mr bubbles didn't get wet." she gives her dad a look and places her bed sheets in a basket to deal with layer, "i think your stuffed toy will be okay." he smiles at her from the couch, she just waved him off and grabs the two trash bags, she opens the front door to the small apartment her father lived in, and she only lived in on week days because her fathers apartment is closer to her school, she makes her way down the small stairs of the apartment complex and walks over to the large trash cans.
she notices a boy that she hasn't met before and her downstairs neighbour johnny lawrence - one of her dads friends from high school - also her half brother robby's dad - "hey johnny," crystal said as she opened up the lid, of the bin, johnny just gave crystal a nod as the new boy was still speaking to him, "bottles go in the blue-." the boy said as johnny just emptied out his trash bag into the same one.
"listen,." johnny said to the boy, "i've lived in this shit hole for over ten years.. the pipes don't work, the fountains full of piss, the only good thing here is that i don't have to talk to anybody." crystal knew that wasn't true as her father and johnny always go to a bar on a Friday night when crystals gone to her mothers, "so nice knowing you." johnny finished and left the two teenagers, "bye johnny." crystal yelled, johnny just put up his hand as a way of saying bye to her.
"he's not a man of many words is he?" the boy asked crystal, "not really" she smiles at him, "i'm miguel." the boy introduces, "me and my family just moved into 109" he smiles at her, "i'm crystal and i live in the apartment above the cranky bearded man" she says, miguel laughs at little at her, "do you have problems with your water pressure." he asked her nervously, "yeah quite a lot but if you run the tap for like 30 seconds it should be fine." she continues smiling at him.
