Monday, 15th of September

"So, you moved here from New York?"  Jason asked while walking along side me, and as a gentleman he was, he carried the bag of mail for me.

"Yeah, Long Island." I replied, thinking of my mom and her husband.. and Estelle.

He hummed thoughtfully. "Thats not super far, couple hours right?"

"Little over 4 I think." I shrugged.
By car it was at least. However I took busses so it took me a long time.

"Not bad." He shrugged.

"Yeah, I suppose." I agreed.

We shuffled down the sidewalk casually, sometimes in peaceful silence, other times talking about random things, especially books, which tended to be the main part of the leading factor in our relationship.

"What's your favorite part of Anne of Green Gables?" He asked with a grin.

"Oh gods. Uh.. I think the part where Anne's boat sinks while she's reenacting the Lady of Shallot scene.." 

He laughs, and because he laughed I started laughing along with him.

"That's one of my favorites too." He finally said. "The movie really makes it so much better too. My favorite part of that is her friends frantically running around thinking Anne has drowned." He grinned.

My eyes widened. "The movie?" There was a movie!!

Of course there's a movie, seaweed brain.

"Yeah, my favorite adaptation is the BBC, but there's quite a few out there.. have you not seen them?" He raised an eyebrow suspiciously.

"No.. I didn't grow up with a tv." Technically.

"That's.. unfortunate. But I hope you have one now..?" He asked hopefully, and I shook my head.

"No. I don't even have a laptop. I'm just kinda living off what May is kind enough to give me for cheap." I admitted with a shrug.

I honestly don't know how much money I have in my bank account yet. I've set up my card but I always forget to use my phone for the banking app, to which I haven't downloaded..
to be fair my usage of my phone has been under 30 minutes a day, in worry that any prolonged amount of time will be too much of a temptation for monsters to try their luck in breaking through.

But I do need to download that app.

"Ah, there it is." I looked up as Jason pointed out a small shop with a little mail logo on top.

"Finally." I joke. "Only took us hours.."

He huffed sarcastically. "So many hours.."

(It was only 15 minutes)

I opened the door for him, and yes, I know ordinarily the guy opens the door for the lady, but let's be honest, he had no hands right now.
