Smoke & shadows

2

We keep driving and we starry to see houses and we get to this square it had one tree in the middle and it was surrounded by shops and cafes .

We keep driving straight and we get to turn left then right then left again. We get to this street with a dead end the houses are huge . We pull up to ours .

It looks like it has about 3 levels . I get out the car and pull out my music .
"Ava take the keys and open the house" my mum instructs me . I take them and walk up the path . There's a front garden filled with Daisy's the door is black and I put the key into the door and open it . I found it weird that such a little key opened such a big door inside it was all dark brown wood on the bottom half of the walls and the top half is patchy wallpaper must have been scrapped from there . I go to try to turn on the lights but they don't come on . I walk straight ahead through the house to the living room there's chairs and a couch left by the last people who lived here there's a fire place . I walk back out and look up the stairs I start to walk up the stairs and I hear a noise I turn back around to see Joseph laughing .

"Piss off " I say
" I'll tell mum you swore " he says laughing
" go tell her before I smack your head off a wall " I say and he goes back out side

I keep walking up the stairs and there's one straight hallway with 5 doors I look inside I pick my room .it was a square room with a big window I can already imagine where I'll put all my stuff I look out the window and it shows the back garden it has a huge tree with a swing hanging on it
" Ava come and help us bring stuff inside " my mum shouts
" okay I will " I shout back

I run down the stairs and out the front door
" take this " my dad says handing me a box

40 minutes later

I start to unpack my stuff all my books and movies I start to put up my posters on the wall to make it feel like more my room I only have a mattes tighter now the rest of my stuff is coming Tomorrow .

The door bell goes . Run down the stairs but my mum beats me to the door she opens it and there's a woman at the door with a boy . He looks about my age he's tall tanned he's got green eyes and brown hair . He's actually hot . The woman he's standing be hide I think that's his mum and she's holding a hamper filled with food .

" hello we live next door to you my names Taylor and this is my son Jason welcome to The area " she said handing to hamper to my mum
" David come here " my mum shouted to my dad and my dad took the hamper from my mum
" hi I'm Lola and this is my husband David and our son Joseph is off in his room and this is Ava " my mum says calling me over I walk down and stand next to my mum and I notice Jason looking at me I look away
" so do you want to come in for a cup of tea ? " my mum asks Taylor a look of fear comes over her face she looks scared and she takes a step back
" no , no thank you it's time for me and Jason to go we have dinner with a family friend bye " Taylor says grabbing his arm and walking away
"Bye " my mum says closing the door
" well that was weird " I say
