▪the day connor moves▪

"Bye Bill! By Carol! Thank you for letting me stay here and eat all your food!" I wave to them while running to Patricia's car. All my stuff was already moved.

"Bye Connor! Have a safe trip!" They both chuckled. I wave to them as we drive off. Sigh. Im gonna miss that house. Oh well.

"So, are you excited? " trish asks.

"I guess so." I mumble, looking down at my hands.

"Oh come on connor, you'll be fine I promise. I made sure of it!" She states, patting my shoulder.

"Really?" I question while looking skeptically at her.

"Of course I did!" She exclaims,"I wouldn't let you go if he was some crazy psycho killer now would I!" She yells. Smacking my head. I laugh.

"True. But then again you never know." I smirk.

"Oh shut up!" She says as she turns the radio up.

▪at the new house▪

We pull into a pretty suburban neighborhood.

"Are you ready?" Trish asks as she stops the car and takes the key ot of the ignition.

"Not really." The nervousness filling my stomach. What if he's rude? What if he's impatient? What if he doesn't like me? Oh no.

"CONNOR!"

"O-oh uh... yeah?" I stutter, trying to keep calm. She already got out and is staring at me through the window on my side.

"Come on, let's go!" She says opening my door, " he's waiting for you inside." I step out of the car. My legs are shaking a little bit from the nervousness that is running through my body. I won't be surprised if they give out before I even get to the sidewalk.

I take deep breaths with each step, trying to calm myself as we make our way to the front door to the house. As we approach it I get more and more nervous. My hands are starting to sweat. Im starting to feel lightheaded. we finally reach the door. The world aound me feels as if its going in slow motion. Just as trish is about to ring the door bell,

"Wait!" I grab her hand," I can't do this!" I cry, turning away from the door. I just can't catch my breath. I start hyperventilating.

"Hey, hey, hey! Connor calm down! You'll be fine I promise." She reassures. I start to calm down.

"Ok. I think I'm ok." Giving her a thumbs up.

"That's the spirit!" She exclaims, pulling me up so im standing and faced towards the door.

"Ready?" She asks with a hopeful look in her eyes.

"Yeah, I think so." She smiles and rings the doorbell. We wait a couple of minutes until the door finally starts to open.

Oh no.
