After School

So… when me and Fufie were leaving the Library, her Aunt bumped into us, giving me this look…. almost like it was a surprise we were hanging out? Does this girl not have many friends…?

Anyway, her name is Tia Neesan… but people call her “Auntie” for short. Fun Facts: Auntie’s from Sao Paulo and Fufie lives with her! Found that second bit out when I asked where Fufie’s parents were. Ended up touching on a sore topic.

That’s okay though, because Auntie returned the favor by asking me where MINE were. I said it how it was; they’re not here and I was just about to walk myself home.

It was then that Auntie did something that no other adult has EVER done for me…

She invited me to her house so I can hang out more. Which… I mean… I could use some more of Fufie’s ideas, but I really needed to get back home and use the ones I’ve gotten already.

Auntie THEN offered me a ride. I guess she doesn’t like the fact that I walk past gang territories and predators. I mean I can take ‘em but I’ll take a chance in her Nissan instead.
