"Wake up!"
I open my eyes and the first thing I see, is Adam standing right next to my bed with his soccer ball in his hands, looking at me with puppy eyes.
"What do you want Adam?"
I say and sit up.
"Do you want to play with me?"
He asks.
"You know I can't figure out playing soccer, Adam"
I say looking reluctantly at him.
"That's why Im asking you"
He says smiling
"Why don't you ask Maddie?"
I say rolling my eyes.
"Maddie? She would rather buy piece of clothes from an un designerbranded store than playing soccer with me."
Adam says making a face.
"Yeah that's maybe true... fineee I'll play with you!"
I say.
"Yay!!"
"But only for 20 minutes, I was actually not done napping" I say and getting up.
Adam lights up and start running downstairs.
Since Maddie, who's the OLDEST, doesn't feel like being the responsible sister, then I guess I have to be that. I walk downstairs behind Adam.
My whole family is unpacking all the boxes in the living room.
"mom! Adam and I are playing soccer outside"
I shout on my way out
"Okay honey have fun!"
My mom says.
"I won't" I say exhausted.
"Come on you snail!"
Adam says.
"Say it again, I dare you"
I say.
"Catch me if you can snail!!!"
Adam says and run.
"Oh you're so done!" I say and start chasing him around our front yard.

Adam start warming up.
"Me against you best out of 5"
He says.
"Yea yeah whatever"
I say
Adam start running towards the ball as fast as his legs allow him. I try to save it but it slides perfectly into the goal right in the front of my eyes.
"Ahah 1/5 to me! And we haven't even played 2 minutes yet"
Adam laughs
"Fun huh?"
I say making a face at him.
I run, and kick (a little harder) to the ball than i expected..
And it flies away... right above the goal.
"What the fuck Mel?"
Adam says
"Oh no.."
I say looking at the ball landing in the garden of another house... behind a tall wooden fence.

"Shiiit!"
I say.
"Go get it before mom and dad notices"
Adam says.
"Yeah fuck your ball.."
I say and start walking back to the house.
"Melody! Go get my ball or I'm telling mom!" Adam yells.
"Jesus Christ FINEEE" I say and start walking towards the other house.
Oh my fucking god, why? This is going to be so embarrassing..
I finally reach the area of the house.
There's a small path leading to the front door.
I take a deep breath and start walking, slowly.. to the front door.

I raise my hand and knocks at the door

I raise my hand and knocks at the door.
I can hear footsteps from the inside, they're walking fast.

"Hi I'm Me-"
I don't get to say more before the woman who opens the door cuts me off.
"Hi I'm so sorry I have to leave for a meeting, Billie please come out here!"
The woman says while putting on her shoes.
"I'm sorry hi I'm Maggie, nice to meet you!"
She smiles, and hurry to the car parked in the garage.
I smile and watch her drive away.

"Who are you and what do you want?"

I hear a girls voice behind me.
It's soft and relaxed. But sounds kinda reserved and far away at the same time.
I turn around and realize that it's the same girl I saw earlier today when we arrived. She's wearing an oversized t-shirt, some shorts, not small tight shorts but oversized loose fit shorts, in a black and green pattern with some text on.

"Uhm, hi I'm Mel or Melody"
I say nervously..
"Wassup I'm Bil or Billie, I assume you're new here so welcome to my hood"
She says and reach out for a handshake.
"Hi Bil nice to meet you, yea we moved to LA from London, we arrived about 3 hours ago.."
I say starring right into her ocean blue eyes... they're so blue and a little green too because of her hair reflecting into her eyes.

"Cool, can I uhm help you?"
Billie says.

"Oh sorry! Uhmm look my brother and i were playing in the front of our house over there and.. it kinda landed in your garden.."
I say and blush.. of embarrassment.

"bro I- aight"
She says trying not to laugh.

"Sorry can't help you" she says starting to walk inside the house.

"But uhm I kinda need it because I.." she cuts me off before I get to finish my sentence

"I'm kidding princess, let's find it then" she says ice cold.
she called me princess.. but for what? is it just because i'm wearing a dress for the first time in decades because it's finally warm enough?? oh well.

"You needa help me finding it tho"
She says still half giggling.

"Sure of course and I am so sorry I promise it won't happen again!"
I say looking down.

"dude, chill it's fine"
Billie says.

*after some time*

"Here i think it's over here"
Billie says

"Is it this one?"
She says showing me the ball.

"Yes it is!"
I say and run over to get the ball.

"Thank you so much Billie and I'm sorry to bother you.."
I say.

"It's okay I wasn't doing anything interesting anyways"
She says, and a little smile shows on her lips.

"Okay bye and thank you so much!"
I say and start walking back home.

"You're welcome"
Billie says.

That was so weird, but kinda nice too, I finally got to talk to her, she seems so cool and down to earth.
I hope I'm gonna talk or see her again some time..
