"Well, I'm going to you guys a cookie. I'm sure they have cooled down now."
"Thanks mom."
"Thank you ma'am."
"I have to go into work for a little today, Megan will you get the extra blankets and pillows out of my closet while I'm gone please. I'll pick up some chicken and corn from the store on my way home as well."
"Ok mom."
"Also can you wash the dishes while I'm gone, your uncle and his friend will be coming in tomorrow so make sure the second room bedroom is clean and get the extra bed out for him. You and Hunter will have to stay out in the living room while they are here, and I told them that you would be here so they are staying until Wednesday. Also you and them are going to go out to practice and it would be nice if you would go help at the school with the lacrosse and gymnastics team, they haven't been working together well and are having a workshop on Monday and Wednesday. Hunter could go along and help if he would want."
"Ok mom, I'll think about going."
"Megan my bosses daughter is on the teams."
"Ok then I'll be there and see what I can do, if you want I can work with her tomorrow since uncle is renting out the area by the beach." I really didn't want to do train someone, but I know that if I do then my mom would be on good terms and have her bosses favor for a while if I could help.
"Thank you darling I'll let my boss know, I'm going to head off to work now though."
"Okay, love you mom. See you when you get home."
"You kids stay out of trouble."
"No worries ma'am, I'll keep her out of trouble." My mom smiled. And grabbed her stuff and left the house.
Hunter just seemed to go along with it and I was surprised how respectful he was knowing that my mom was way below him, but I guess it makes sense because he always let me speak as I wanted without an repercussions. Not caring about my status is how I know that he's real and we have real trust and I can at least say that he isn't using me for anything because as far as he's concerned there isn't anything I can actually give him because I don't have any score and I'm a low-tier. He is the only one I have at school, otherwise I'm alone, but what if there is something he wants from me and I just don't know about it. I guess just hope for the best right, because that's all I can do.
We sat in silence for a while eating the cookies and I washed the dishes and dried them off and then put them where they needed to be. I went into my moms room and got into the closet. At the top of her closet she had 4 extra pillows and 6 extra blankets. I brought them out to the living room and set the on the futon. Then went into my old room. It was smaller than my mother's room and there was one twin bed that was my old bed against the wall and in my closet there was a foldable roll away bed that I pulled out and set up. I then went into the top of my closet and get the 2 extra pillow and the fitted sheet out, along with my 2 extra comforters. I made the roll away bed and made sure my old bed was made. On my old bed I had a body pillow and 4 regular pillows. My sheets and comforter were light grey, my older comforters were both light blue I brought one of them out to the living room and used the other to finish making the roll away bed in my room. I did the chores my mom wanted me to do. In my closet my old lacrosse stuff was leaning against its back wall and my gymnastics uniform and practice outfit were hanging up. I didn't have much stuff in my room because everything I wore and needed were in my dorm back at school or in my little duffel bag next to the futon. I'd like to call that area the living room but really the kitchen and dinning room and living room were all connected and just one room. Off that room the left wall had 3 doors the one farthest to my left lead to my moms room, the on farthest right was my old room that now was a guest room and the door in the middle was the bath room. The bathroom had a small shower at the very end of it and a sink and toilet, it wasn't a very big space but it worked and we were lucky to have our own bathroom and two bedrooms. A lot of the other buildings had communal bathrooms and showers and were only one bedroom apartments that were half the size of ours and were in way worse condition then ours, for the most part there was also normally more than 1 or two people living in the small space. There was no doubt that me and my mom were lucky.
