Too young.
Three years younger.
Too old for you.
For as long as she can remember she has heard those three sentences.
But what does happen when Maya and Josh have a connection?
It was about around seven, seven-thirty and Maya woke up. She didn't realize what time it was until she saw Riley was still asleep. She chuckled and then she looked over at the clock again the wall. 07:19. She smiled as she stood up out of bed. She quickly made it and then went to her closet. She picked out some shorts and a T-shirt with a pair of white sandals.

After she got dressed she brushed her hair and washed her face. She let her hair fall down and kept it like that. She left her phone in her room and then went outside. She breathed in the fresh air of California and saw that Josh was sitting on a bench not far from the house. About ten steps. She smiled as she went to him.
"Mind if I sit down?" Maya asked. "Maya. No you can sit. Why are you up?" Josh asked and Maya sat down. "Who wants to sleep while the weather is this nice? This place is beautiful," Maya said. "Yeah. It is," Josh said.
Maya leaned back in the bench and immediately got comfortable. She never thought she would be comfortable with Josh now she is.
"My niece up?" Josh asked. "How do you know her? No she's still asleep," Maya said. "Heard anything of your mom yet? She's probably worried," Josh said. "Not actually. Or I didn't realize that. She hasn't contacted me yet." "You seem a bit sad about it. What's bothering?" Josh asked. "I don't know. I guess I just hoped my mom would care about me. We haven't had a great relationship," Maya said. "How come? I mean. You're an easy girl to get along with. I don't mean... What I mean..." "I know what you mean," Maya said and sigh. "We just never did have a great relationship. Not for the last thirteen years," Maya said.
Josh could see she was a bit nerves about being out here. Where her friends weren't there to protect her and she wasn't exactly herself. Since yesterday she wasn't acting much like Maya but of course when does she act like Maya?
