Desire Of The Heart

Chapter 1

*The Move*

Paris and Mrs. Hatch moved to Baton Rouge, LA. Paris hates that they moved from Missouri. Why did we have to move mom? I had friends and I liked it there in Missouri. Look Paris you are going to have to make the best of it baby. You will make new friends, plus your aunt Pam lives around the corner. You will be able to see your cousins. Paris rolls her eyes to the thought of her cousins. Paris and her twin cousins are not close. They are mean and both are fast acting girls. And they dress like they're grown. I don't know why my aunt lets them dress like that,but what can I expect the apple don't fall to far from the tree. As we pull into the driveway I lose my train of thought as I see the house. Come on, get out Paris, I think your gonna like it. I hope so I murmur to myself. As Paris gets out of the car she looks around at the other houses. The houses were too close to each other. As Mrs. Hatch watches Paris look around she smiles to herself, cause she knows Paris is gonna love the inside and how she set up her room. As she thinks her cell phone rings and a number that she knows too well pops up. Paris okay here's the keys your room is downstairs go ahead and go inside and look around while I take this phone call. Who's that calling?Go on ahead Paris and do what I just said. Fine Paris says while going in the house. Kids these days are so nosy, she thought to herself before answering the phone.

Phone Call:
Tina : What do you want!
Tim: Aww come on Tina, why you got to be like that. I'm just calling to see how you and Paris doing.
Tina: Really Tim! Now you want to ask or even care about us. We have nothing to talk about.
Tim: Remember you the one left.
Tina: You know exactly why I left, should I remind you.
Tim: Let the pass be the pass
Tina: I got to go, Have a nice life.

Meanwhile, in the house, Paris is looking in the living room. She loves how everything is setup. Its so homey in here. She sees her room, it's nice everything is set up like she likes it. She looks over to see her laptop. Yes oh lord what would I have done without it. She runs her hand over her bed. Its neatly set up her pillows and stuff animals is all placed in the right spot. I got to give it to mom its nice so far, she smiles to herself. There's one window in her room. She walks over and pull the curtain back. She can see the house next door. As see looks out the window she sees a boy bent over. The boy looks around age. He has a white T-shirt on, that looks dirty and some tore up blue jeans. She also sees a woman standing by him. Paris closes the curtain and sits down on her bed remembering, she haven't looked at the whole house yet. Well looks like this is where we're going to be staying for now on, so I guess, I do have to make the best of it. I just hope I can make new friends, it would suck if my so called hot tail cousins, be the only people I know.

Meanwhile outside, Mrs. Hatch has ended her phone call. She hears a women's voice, Hey how are you. I see you just moving in. My name is Rona Smith. Oh hey Mrs. Smith, I'm Tina Hatch. Me and my daughter moved here from Missouri. Oh really I have some family from Troy Missouri. So u say you and your daughter moved here. Yeah she in the house looking around. Me and my son been here about three years now. He's a good boy, see look at him in my flower garden pulling weeds lol. Mrs. Hatch looks over at the young boy working in the garden.

Then y'all can meet my daughter Paris. Okay that sounds like a plan. We will be over for dinner. As the Smiths walk back to their house, next door. Mrs. Hatch goes in her house. It's been a long drive and she's tired. Paris where are you. Paris gets up off the bed and go to the front room. Yeah mom I was in my room. So how you like your room? I love it.

Paris stands their quiet just thinking about boy she saw bent over. Come on...Paris follows her mom into the kitchen. The kitchen was bigger than their previous kitchen at their old house. Paris notices a dish washer. Omg I don't have to wash dishes by hand. I'm loving this. Paris thinks to herself. Over at the Smiths house, Rona is looking in her kitchen. To see what dish she is going to bring to her new neighbors house for dinner. Keon what dish you think we should bring? Mom I don't know I'm not going over there. Why you don't want to go? This is too much like those movies. You have new neighbors and someone bring them food. And say " Welcome to the neighborhood, here is a gift. I made it for you"! He says in a woman voice. Mrs. Smith starts laughing. Boy you crazy, we didn't do that. We were invited silly boy. Now come help me make our favorite salad mix. Come on mom, can I just stay here please. No you coming so go get cleaned up. Fine, I can't win for losing. Mrs. Smith prepares a salad with an avocado sliced up and bacon bits, shredded cheese, pomegranate honey walnut nut mix and for dressing ranch dressing. Back at Mrs. Hatch house. She decides to make fried chicken with Mac n cheese. As she looks at the clock, its 6:17pm. She starts preparing the food. Paris is in her room hanging some of her clothes in her closet and lining her shoes in her closet. When she hears the
doorbell rings. Mom I got it, Paris shouts. She opens the the door to see Mrs. Smith and Keon standing at the door. How baby you must be Paris, yes ma'am I am. Paris steps back from the door to allow them to come in. Keon looks at Paris and gives a small smile. Paris smiles back. Paris closes the door. Come this way my mom is in the kitchen. I can tell it smells good in here, replies Mrs. Smith. Hey I see you made it here just put your dish on the counter over there. Paris this is Mrs. Smith and her son Keon.
