That Boy Next Door - Leonetta Story

Eight

After some fast minutes his mother opens the door. She looked surprised but also confused. And I? I looked disappointed. Not because she looks bad or not nice, on the contrary, she looks great.

V: hi, mrs Vargas, is Leon home?

Lmom: How do you know my son? He didn't even go outside to go look for new friends or something.

V: sorry about that. I'm his girl next door. and that made me your neighbour... Violetta Castillo.

Lmom: aah, it's you where your parents have been talking about.

V: my parents?

Lmom: yeah they came here before dinner to say hallo and they told us about you and your brother David?

V: no it's Diego. But it's okay.

Lmom: yeah Diego. I will tell Leon that you're here. One moment.

V: yeah, I'll wait here.

Lmom: you know, come in. he's upstairs.

V: okay...

Lmom: pretend you're at home. I'll be telling Leon that you're here. Violetta was it right?

V: yeah, Violetta.

She goes upstairs while I'm looking around how it's getting to look like a home. I go sit at the bar stool. And wait there till he comes downstairs.

As I was doing the last things of my morning routine in the bathroom my mom came in.

Lmom: hi son, there is someone waiting for you downstairs.

L: ooh shit! I'm late.

Lmom: don't talk that language!

L: sorry. I have to go. Bye mom.

Lmom: it's alright. But I wanna hear later who that girl is and what you did today with her.

L: yes mom. Bye.

And I walk downstairs nervously because I am gonna meet Violetta in real life. I can shake her hand and give her a real kiss on her cheek or hold her what I wanted to do since we talked about everything and nothing. As I came in the living room I didn't saw her, so I walked to the kitchen. She sat at the bar. I slowly walked towards her to meet her finally in person.

L: hello

V: Leon! How nice to see you in person finally! Can I hug you?

L: sure!

Violetta

The minutes went by. After a few, he just walked, just like we know each other for years and see each other for the first time in 7 years again. If you know what I mean.

He just said 'Hello' to me. I think I had sad a little more if I were him.

I asked him if I could get a hug. I and he said 'Sure' in a way he wanted to do that for a really long time.

We're still in that hug now. I love it so much. He makes me feel loved or something. I don't know how to explain. It's just we have met before as I mentioned before, but it's actually our first meeting in person. That's crazy right?

As we let go of each other, we look into each other eyes. And I can assure you that his are the most beautiful I've ever seen in my whole life.

L: you have beautiful eyes, Violetta

V: funny, I was gonna say the same thing to you, Leon

L: well, thank you. shall we go?

I look at my phone what time it is and I see we need to hurry.

V: yes, we have to hurry! Come on!

L: okay. Let's go then

And we leave his house and walk a little faster than normally to be on time.
