More to A Home Far Away

Tiny bit more of A Home Far Away


“Hannah where are you?” my mother called.

“I am right here.” I said answering from my room.

“Come down here, you have a visitor.” She yelled happily. I quickly got ready and brushed my hair. I ran down the stairs to my visitor.

I was surprised to see that is was not Andrew or Bailee. It was someone new.
“Hey, um…so your Hannah right?” he said with a twinkle in his eye.

“Ya, and you are?” I said back.

“I’m Conner.” He said sweetly.

Ok this guy is not so bad. He looked good, talked good, can’t read minds. It’s perfect!

“So, I was wondering if you wanted to go to the movies with a couple of my friends.”

“just a sec.” I said. I ran to my mother’s room. It was a rule of my mothers. Ask before anything! I’m 17, and I still have to ask! Crazy.

“Mom can I please go to the movies with…Conner and his friends?”

“This is good! Now you’re going to have all of these new friends, and you’re going to have a blast! Sure you can go!”

I shot out of my mother’s room and back to Conner.

“Sure I can go…Is Andrew your friend?” I asked hopefully. Even though he kept secrets and all of that, I still really did like him.

Conner looked at me for a sec then said.

“Andrew, he kinda keeps to himself. He’s not really my friend.” I looked down at the ground.

“But I have a lot of other friends.” He said happily.
