Dua's POV

"Dua! Have you talked to the new neighbors yet?" my mom yelled from downstairs. I was upstairs in my room drawing some things.

"No I haven't mom." I yelled back, taking my earphones out so I could hear her clearer.

"You should go meet them and help them carry the boxes. I'll welcome them later." my mom yelled back. I sighed and stood up from my bed. I walked down the stairs and out the front door.

I saw a moving van parked in front of the new neighbor's door and a woman who looked my mom's age. I walked a little closer and approached the woman.

"Hi ma'am. I'm Dua. Me and my parents live next door." I said, politely. The woman turned to me and gave me a bright smile.

"Hi! I'm Emily! It's nice to meet you Dua!" the woman said a little overexcited.

"It's nice to meet you too Emily. Can I help with the boxes?" I smiled back at her.

"That would be amazing, dear. Can you take that one and take it to the living room?" Emily pointed to a box and then to the door of their new house.

I nodded and caried the box inside. Emily came in with a box too.

"Lyndsey! Come downstairs for a minute!" Emily yelled. She went to what I think was the kitchen.

I heard a faint groan and footsteps coming down the stairs. A girl that looked my age came down the stairs. She had long blonde hair and the sides of her head were shaved. She looked so pretty. Wait? What am I thinking about? I have a boyfriend.

I noticed I was staring at her and looked down at the ground.

"Hi. I'm Lyndsey but you can call me Lynn." I heard a soft voice say. I looked up and saw that the girl was smiling at me.

I smiled back. "Hi. I'm Dua."

Lynn smiled again and I had to be careful that I wouldn't stare again.

"Are you staying over for diner Dua?" Emily walked back into the room.

"I'll first go ask my mom." I said, starting to walk to the door. I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned around again.

"Are you gonna be okay walking back home alone. It's already dark outside." Lynn said with a serious expression on her face.

"Are you serious? I literally live next door." I laughed. She started laughing too. Her laugh was the most heavenly sound I had ever heard. I walked out the door and she waved. I waved back and smiled. She's so cute.

No Dua. She's not. She's just pretty. She's just a friend. I shook my head and walked into the living room of my own house.

"Mom! The neighbors asked me if I wanted to stay over for diner. Is that alright?" I yelled, walking to the kitchen to find my mom. She was there and she didn't answer. Great. I looked at the kitchen table and saw that there was a not on it.

It said:

Hey honey,
I got a call from my boss and he asked me to come help him with something. I don't know when I'll be home. You can order some pizza for diner if you want.

Love, Mom.

Well that's just fucking great. Now I'm alone again. I can go eat diner with Lynn and Emily but after that I'm alone again. This always happens on Saturdays. Mom leaves me alone and dad is almost always on a business trip. I'm pretty sure that my mom is having and affair with her boss. Dad wouldn't know. He's always gone. Don't get me wrong, I love ny parents but I would just be better of without them.

People at school think I'm the perfect girl with the perfect grades but that's not what I am at all. My life is miserable. I am miserable. My parents don't care about me, I have a really hard time studying.

I ran upstairs to get my phone and looked through my window. Lynn was sitting on a bed in what I thought was her bedroom. Our windows were opposite of each other. Lynn had a sad look on her face.

I tapped on my window and Lynn looked up. I waved at her and she waved back with a slight smile on her face. I quickly grabbed a pen and some paper and wrote that I was going to go back to Lynn's house after I took a quick shower because I stank. I held it up for Lynn to read and she chuckled and gave me a thumbs up.

I felt like I could be myself and make the jokes I wanted to make around Lynn. She made me feel comfortable even though I only met her like 10 minutes ago. I took my shower and got dressed in a pair of ripped black jeans, a pink shirt and some old converses. I guess I'll go to Lynn's house again then.
