Jackson's POV:
I suddenly woke up and grew confused as to where I was. Then I remembered yesterday and I became upset. I want to go back home I thought to myself.

I laid in bed for a few until I finally decided to get up and get ready for the day. Today we should be getting our stuff from our old house, so that means a long day of officially moving our stuff into the new place.

I hopped into the shower and after, I changed into some clothes that I could move around in easily. When I got done, I headed downstairs and to the kitchen. When I got there my mom was already there preparing breakfast.

"Morning," my mother said to me cheerfully. "Morning," I said with a fake smile. "How did you sleep last night?" She asked me. "Good, and you?" I asked her. "Great,"she said. I walked to where she was and watched her cook.

"Will you set the table for me? The food is almost done," she asked. I nodded and went to go  set the table. "Oh and don't worry about your father. He's already at work," she called out to me. I set the table for just my mom and I.

My mother came in and put the food on the table. We sat down and ate in silence. "So, today we should be getting our things. I'm gonna need your help since your father is at work and won't be back until late," my mom said.

I put my drink down to respond, "yeah, of course. I'll help." She smiled at me until we heard a bell ring throughout the house. "I wonder who that could be?" She said as she got up to see who was at our door. As she opened the door I heard someone speak to my mom.

Jackson's Mom's POV:
I open the door to see a woman around my age and a kid around Jackson's age. "Hi, is this the Wang's residence?" She asked me. "Yes, how can I help you?" I asked her.

"Oh my husband works with your husband and he said that you might need some help moving in today since your husband couldn't be here. I brought my son along so he can help with the heavy things," she said while smiling and grabbing her son's shoulder.

"Oh well that's really nice of you two. That would be greatly appreciated. We need all the extra hands we can get. It's only my son and I right now. Come on in," I said and greeted them inside.

"You have such a beautiful home," she said to me while her and her son walked in. "Thank you, I'm Sophia by the way," I said while reaching my hand out to her. "Dorine and this is Mark," she took my hand and pushed Mark towards me.

He looked at me kind of shyly. He definitely isn't that much of a talker. Funny, my kid doesn't know how to shut up I thought to myself.

"Hi, it's really nice to meet you," he said and bowed. "Wow, such manners," I said. "How old are you?" I asked him. "I just turned eighteen ma'am," he said. "Oh you don't have to call me ma'am. Please, call me Sophia," I said.

"Yes of course," he said. "Oh and my son, Jackson, he's seventeen, almost eighteen. Let me go get him for you," I said while leaving them there to go grab him.

Jackson's POV:
I heard someone come into the dinning room and I look up to see my mom. "Honey, I have a couple of people I want you to meet," she said to me. I got up and walked to where these people were.

What I saw was a woman around my mom's age and holy shit! I thought to myself. Next to her was the most beautiful boy I have ever laid my eyes on. Wow! Is this boy even real right now, I asked myself.

I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard my mothers voice. "Jackson! Are you listening to me?" She asked me. "What?" I said as I looked at her. "I said this is Dorian and her son, Mark. They're here to help us move. Dorian's husband works with your dad," she said.

"Oh, well, thank you for the help, that's really kind of you two," I said while bowing to them. We heard the bell again indicating that someone was at the door. My mother looked down at her watch.

"Our stuff has just arrived. Let's get cracking," she said. With that we went outside and began moving our stuff into the house.
