The walk home was a bit awkward but I started to warm up to him. I told him things I like and things that were conversation starters. He also told me things he liked as well such as his favorite color he started to also talk about his family too. He told me that he was staying in an apartment. He showed me a picture of it from his phone. It was a cute blue apartment that had neatly trimmed grass and impressive neatly trimmed bushes as well. When I got to my house, he stopped and stared at it with amazement like most people do. I guess it was because it was a mansion. I started to blush and tilted my head down in embarrassment. I usually didn't like it when people gawked at my family's inheritance. I looked at him and said "Would you like to come with me? In my house? I can show you around..." He looked surprised and said "Really?!!?! Umm... If its okay with your mom-" "Uh... I don't have a mom... I am sorry I didn't mention it earlier..." "It's okay. It's probably a sore subject you don't have to talk about it." "Let's just go!" I gestured him to come where I was standing. I unlocked my gate door and then grabbed his hand and pulled him into my front yard. I started running towards my door with Jacob running from behind. He caught up with me but ran a bit faster. I then tripped and fell on him. My eyesight went a bit blurry but once it cleared up, I realized I was on him in an awkward position. I got up and so did he and I opened up my door, not once mentioning what just happened. I led him inside and he started to gasp in amazement. This time I guess I really didn't mind. I showed him my dining room and I sat down on a stool. "Come here! You can sit! It's not like the stool's gonna bite your butt or something" I giggled. Embarrassed he sat down I then said " Hey! Stay here, I'll be right back!" I went into the kitchen room and found my older sister Carmen baking some brownies next to her were a tray of fresh brownies. "Perfect!" I said. "Hey! Don't touch those! I just baked them!" "Please?? Can I have them??" "Why do you need them?" I whispered in her ear and told her my situation. My sister then picked up the tray and went into the dining room. I followed her and saw Jacob waiting with a pencil and paper. As I got closer, I noticed he drew the chandelier hanging from our ceiling. My sister then whispered in my ear and said "Oooooh! He seems hot!" My ears then turned tomato red. He saw me coming and got up. "Here let me help you with those," Jacob said and he took the tray out of my sister's hands. He then placed them on the table. "You didn't have to do this! It's okay! I'm fine, I can eat at home." he started to say. I then told him that it was nothing and he should just accept it. He reluctantly started eating one brownie then said "Wow! These are so delicious!" Carmen then said," Here I'll give you a bag so you can eat some more at home". He started to get up and said it was getting late and started to leave.Carmen handed him a bag of brownies. He started to thank her and us for having him with us. When he left the house, I followed him and then I shut the door and came outside and quickly hugged him and said "No, thank you! I don't have many friends so it felt nice to have someone come over". I then said goodbye and entered back in my house.
