Stanley stood with his parents in front of the door, which he had already seen several times. They didn't make much impression on him, but he was curious about who lives inside. Or actually — who specifically lived inside. This boy.

The small town had it to itself that everyone knew everyone, so the appearance of new neighbors immediately aroused interest. Stanley and his parents moved into a large but cozy house in Wellsburry.

He knew that a couple in their forties lived in the neighborhood, a little girl and a teenage son. And this son... Well, Stanley saw him going out with a skateboard a few times. "Grunge emo twink" - this is how he would describe it in the simplest way. He looked intriguing and definitely had something about him that caught the eye.

A few days earlier, the boy's mother came to their house with a cake, inviting the whole family to dinner at the same time. Stanley decided that it was a great opportunity to finally get to know each other.

*When Mrs. Romano opened the door with a radiant smile, Stanley only gave him back widely and went inside without hesitation.

— "Oh, great that you are! Come on, the food is already waiting."

The house smelled warm and homely. The rest of the family was already sitting in the dining room. And that boy - up close he looked even more interesting: dark clothes, a few earrings, hair in black with thick strands of red falling on his eyes. He looked relaxed, scrolling something on his phone.

Mr. Romano was also sitting at the table - serious in features, but with a loose smile, and a little girl in a yellow polka dot dress. Stanley sat down comfortably, ready to talk and meet new people... or maybe someone a little closer. Of course, Mrs. Romano led the talk.
