KELANI PARKER
hey you! don't be a silent reader:)

I check the GPS making sure I'm at the right place. 

My parent's new house.

Let's just say it's been a while since I've last seen my parents new house, I grew up in New York but whenever I left to go to Yark, my mom and dad moved.

I take a deep breath and grab my things, I look over at the house and see my Mom talking to a lady around her age.

I step out of my car and close the door behind me, walking up to them.

"Hey mom." I greet her. Fuck it's been a while.

My mom turns to me "Oh hey honey!" She says hugging me. "How have you been?" She hugs me even tighter.

She finally let's go of me after a while. "I've been good." I tell her.

I take a glance at the lady she was talking to a minute ago.

Familiar eyes. but I can't point out where I've seen them before.

"Oh Kelani, this is Mrs. Cristina our neighbor!" My mom tells me.

"Hi i'm Kelani!" I extend my hand for her to shake, smiling at her.

She smiles at me and shakes my hand "Yes, I've heard so much about you! Your even prettier in person."

I smile at her comment, "Thank you so much!"

"Of course Honey!" Mrs. Cristina says.

After a bit of chatting, I can see a young girl running towards us.

"Mommy mommy!" A small girl with pigtails and the same pair of blue eyes that Cristina, yells out. "Christian won't play with me!"

Christian?

No there's so many Christian's in this world. But the eyes, no one has those eyes except for the lady in front of me and the little girl beside her.

Mrs. Cristina looks down "Okay, I'll be there in a minute Cleo."

Cleo, Cleo, Cleo. I've heard that name before.

The woman in front of my mom and me turns towards us while picking up her daughter. "Would ya'll like to come inside? I'm making cookies." She asks us.

I turn to my mom for an answer. "Oh sure, if we're not a bother." My mom says.

Mrs. Cristina giggle a bit "Oh not at all!" she says waving her hand.

All four of us walk inside this huge house. I mean it's like huge! Mrs. Cristina leads mom and I towards the kitchen. 

All I can think of right now is Christian. Am I in the house where Christian grew up in? Did I just meet his mom and sister?

I shake off those thoughts that are absolutely non-sense and ask Cristina where the bathroom is.

"Go down that hall." She points at the hallway, "second door on your left."

I nod and make my way over there.

As I finish my business, I wash my hands and dry them. Turning off the light.

when I open the door I see someone standing against the wall.

Christian.

"you stalking me partner?" He cocks his head smirking.

Oh I fucking knew it.
