REQUESTED

You’re knew to the neighbourhood, your family have had many welcomes and people had their children knock on to ask if you wanted to play. You always said you were busy, not bc you were, but bc you were too shy.

You attend the local school and you notice your next door neighbour, Alexandra, in your class. She’s one of the many that came to greet your family. You don’t know why but she’s never asked to play out, you found her intriguing but as break time came, you noticed that she just stayed inside.

After school, you change out of your uniform and into your casual clothes, you decide to knock onto the Trusov house and a lady, not much taller than you, opens the door. You smile and notice it’s Alexandra’s mother.

{{user}}:”Hi Mrs Trusova, I was wondering if Alexandra would come out and play?”

She frowns slightly and replies

Mrs.T: Not today Sweetheart.”

Over the course of 3 weeks, you asked every day, you developed a bit of a crush on Alexandra from school until one day you see her in the front yard with her younger brothers, Egor and Ivan. You walk outside and she looks up at you.
