SUNNY

"Mommy, I'm going to go out with a neighbor from across the street," I told my mom who was in the kitchen unpacking the kitchen. "Con quien," she said to me opening up boxes. "Un vecino, she is the girl that lives across the street her name is Callie she gave us the box cutter," I informed her. "Ahh ok, well hurry up and get back, we have a lot to do," she told me. "Lo harè," I said to her. I gave her a kiss on the cheek and walked out to meet Callie.

CALLIE

I went inside and got dressed out of my pajamas. I texted Stef and Lena and told them that I was going out for a while. When I heard a knock at the door, I went downstairs to open it. "Hey, you can come in, I just have to grab my shoes," I said to her. "Ok, she said coming in and closing the door behind her. "Wow, this is a really nice house," Sunny said looking around. "Thanks, but I didn't none of this stuff out, since I just got here like a year ago." I grabbed my keys and cell phone, and locked up behind us as we started walking. "So, did you just move here too," she asked me as we walked up the street. "Oh, no my moms brought this house like 10 years ago, I'm adopted. Stef and Lena adopted me like a month ago." "You have two moms, that must be different," she said looking down at the ground as she walked. "Not really, I know they both love me and I love them, that is all that matters," I said smiling to myself. "Is it just you and your moms, that live in that house.. no wait you said you had a brother. Is it just you two and your moms," she asked me. "Well no, my brother that is in the band is one of my mom's son from a previous marriage, and then there is Mariana and Jesus who they adopted when they were 5, there 15 now. And my little brother Jude who is my brother by blood, so there is a lot of us, just nobody is home right now," I informed her. "They left you alone on a Saturday, that must suck," she said chuckling a little. "I'm glad they did or else I would of never meet you," she said with a half smile staring at me. "Being the only single one in the house, and no friends, and your off of work, you just sit around," I said to her. "Why don't you have any friends," she asked me, "I just don't have any. I mean there is this girl that I work with, but I really hang out with anybody unless it is my family. "Well, I'm here now, you can hang out with me." "I guess you are the only one." Me and Sunny just made small talk. She was a nice girl, she seemed to be acting awkward around me. I made the assumption that she was socially awkward. When we got to the restaurants she decided to get her family some chinese food. I showed her around to some of the other stores, and restaurants. While we was waiting for her food to be made. I tried to talk to her more. "So what do you like to do," I asked her. "Well I love to play sports. I play basketball and sometime football, but I am more of a basketball lover. I like to eat food, I like to try new things. I like to model. I'm real good at taking pictures. I'm pretty chill to hang around. I hate school though, I think it is a waste of time. I speak a lot of spanish also. My mom can speak english ok, but we speak spanish a lot," she said smiling and playing with her fingers while she talked. "Well, I love to write in my journal about all my feelings. It's a good way to release for me. I love to take pictures, I'm really into photography." "You should really like take my pictures, like that would be tan impresionante, which means so awesome," she said getting excited. "Ok, I am not a professional. Taking pictures is just my hobby," I said trying to calm her down. "I don't care, you should still take some for me. Just for fun," she said rubbing my leg. "I will see into it," I said to her. When the food was ready, we walked back we were silent for awhile. Until she spoke up.

SUNNY

I realized that I was acting anti social around her. I was acting shy and I was far from shy. I wanted Callie to see the real me. Callie was beautiful and so down to earth. I had to find out if she was gay. I wanted to tell her that I was a lesbian. I just didn't know how. "So, why are you single, I mean you are really pretty, I just don't know how you can be single," I said to her. "Well, thank you for the compliment, but I just broke up with my ex boyfriend, but haven't really dated in my life. "Same here, it's hard for me to date too," I said to her. "Why," she asked me. "It just is, but dating is a struggle for me," she spoke to me. "Dating can be hard," I told her. "You just have to find the right one." When we got to our street, I saw a latino boy out front shooting some hoops, and I got real happy to see a basketball hoop.. "He saw Callie and he waves.." "I thought you went out with Hayley today," Callie asked him. "Well you can imagine how that went since I am home so early," he said shooting the basketball in the hoop. "I keep telling you to break up with her, but um. Jesus this Sunny, she just moved across the street. Sunny this is my brother Jesus." "Hola, cómo estás," I asked him. "Estoy bien," he said to me shooting the basket in the hoop "How about a little one on one," I said to him. "Juegas," he asked me. "Si, just give me a second and let me drop this food in the house," I said running to my house. I gave the food to my mother and told her I was going to shoot some hoops. I went back outside and grabbed the ball from Jesus and made a shot. Me and Jesus played for about 30 minutes, Callie was sitting on the curb watching. I made sure I was extra good so I can impress her. She seemed to be enjoying it. I was sweating and was getting tired. "Wow you are good," he told me. "Gracias, I have been playing since I was cinco años de edad, so that is 11 years." "Well usted es bueno," he said. "Maybe I can take you out sometimes," he asked me with a flirty look. I laughed at him and shook my head. "Well that is not going to work because I'm  gay señor," I said to him. I looked over to Callie when I said that and her eyes got real big. And Jesus just stood there shocked. I took the ball from him and made one last shot.
