“Mommy where are we going?” Noah asks me as I lock our house.

I hadn’t planned on this little trip, but I knew it was something that I needed to do. Nora and Theo have been calling me for days. They wanted a relationship with me, but instead I kept keeping them at arm’s length.

I decided that I was going to give them a chance. After all, how was I supposed to know if they truly loved me if I just kept pushing them away? And besides, I needed more good people in my

life.

“I want you to meet some people” I reply, taking his hand in mine as I lead him towards my car.

As we were walking towards the car, my eyes gets caught by the moving vehicle that was parked a few meters down from my house.

“Looks like someone is moving in” I tell Noah. “We’re going to have a new neighbor.”

The house has been empty for months. It was similar in structure to mine with the only

difference being it looked a bit bigger. 2

“Man, I hope they have a kid my age” Noah says in excitement. “Don’t get me wrong mom. I love

this place, but it’s full of old people”

I chuckle at that. When I picked this place, I didn’t realize we would be surrounded by elderly

people who were all up in your business. I chose this place because of the tranquility and the big

yard. The other two kids in this community were like fifteen house down from us.

“Well baby, let’s hope so” I say as I help him get in the car and buckle up.

I get in and start the car. I was nervous and we weren’t even half way to where we were going. I

was so used to getting hurt that I was skeptical and doubtful about anyone who wanted to get

close to me.

Pushing the nervousness away, I try to focus on driving.

“So, who are we going to see?” Noah breaks the silence bouncing in his seat.

One thing about Noah is that he doesn’t like being kept in suspense. A character that is just like

his father. He prefers knowing things in advance and doesn’t like anything that surprises him

which is a weird character for a kid.

“You’ll just have to wait and see” I smile at him. “They are people I currently met and they’ve been dying to meet you”

His brows pull together in a frown. Right now he reminds me so much of Rowan. Noah was an exact replica of his dad. It showed in the way he looked and behaved.
