Chapter 6: Neighbors
Waiting for what he had to say I could not help the giggling that escaped from me due to what he said earlier, and the smirk on his face afterward. He did have a way to make jokes indeed. Actually, my house is just a few blocks away from the bus stop, roughly five minutes walk, he concluded.
Somehow I felt a little bit embarrassed for not asking him earlier. I did not want to be too forward with my questions since this was my first taste of friendship I chose to be content with the information he was willing to share. If only I had just asked freely it would have saved me the embarrassment.
Trying not to stand in an awkward position I quickly shipped in. It's quite a coincidence u know. My house is also a few blocks away, about five minutes walk too. We took advantage of the opportunity and walked away slowly while conversing. As we converse I got to know he has always lived in London but his parents only chose now to move back to California. That explains your accent I said to him only to get a shoulder bump from him.
The supposed five minutes walk was extended to eight minutes walk at the end of the day. We were at the front of my house when Jimmy told me the next duplex apartment is his house. I looked at him with a big smile on my face. Well, that makes us neighbors because we are standing right in front of my house, I told him. I guess so was his reply.
Well, neighbor and lab partner, we have seven weeks to finals. The sooner we come up with our research topic, the better. That way we don't have to rush things up towards the end. It's weekend already so we have some time to think about it and come up with some topics and decide on one thereafter. If you have any ideas or questions feel free to buzz my phone or drop a mail. Oh! I forgot we are neighbors so you can come next door that way we can study together and help you catch up on the three weeks lessons you have missed.
Yes, ma'am, he said trying very hard to hide the laughter about to come out. I laughed at the sight and he joined in. We said our goodbyes before I walked to the door of my house while I watched him do the same. I waved at him again before ringing the doorbell. As expected my mom has been waiting for me to come home since she opened the door immediately I rang the bell.
