//You chose.. John's House!!

Alexander's POV•

We finish our food at the diner and John leaves a $5 tip.

We then start walking to his place, as we approach the porch, he's sighs nervously.

I looked him, “Hey.. what's wrong..?” I asked, softly.

He looked at me sadly. “I'm just nervous.. my father died a few years ago and my mom hasn't been the same since..”

“Oh.. I'm so so-”

“Don't. Please don't apologise.” John mumbled, as he opened the door and let me inside.

He walked towards the kitchen and grabbed a cup from the cabinet. “Would you like some sweet tea?” He asked.

I nodded and he grabbed another cup. He then grabbed the jug that contained the sweet tea.

He filled the cups with ice and the tea and handed me one cup, with a smile.

“thank you, sweetie..” I smiled back, taking a sip of the sugary sweet tea.

“You're welcome..” John replied, taking a sip from his glass.

I heard someone come downstairs and turned to see who it was.

“Jackie..?” An older women groaned, rubbing her eyes.

“Yes, mama?” John instantly replied, setting down his cup of tea and going to the women.

“What time is it?”

“It's 4:30pm." John replied, checking the time on his phone.

“Mm. Start on dinner and bring me a beer.” The women grunted, heading upstairs.

John sighed and grabbed a beer from the fridge, then took it to his mother.

He then came back downstairs to me and sighed. “Will you help me with dinner?”

I nodded and smiled. “Of course..”

John gives me a small smile and I can't help but to smile back.

He's so precious..
