I was taking a stroll through the neighborhood with my puppy Yuri and I had noticed that someone new had moved in next door. I've been so caught up with my new job I hadn’t noticed that the old couple had moved away.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ONu3wyyaE

After contemplating whether I should welcome them to the neighborhood for several minutes I finally gave into my impulsive thoughts and began to walk up to their door, as I’m talking up to the door I began to think of ways to introduce myself.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpL7xQoLn7

“Should I say Hi?, Welcome to the neighborhood? Maybe I should ask for his name” I thought to myself. “I think that I’m starting to overthink this, Breath Kimi Breath” Said my inner voice. Before I knew it I was already at their doorstep. I took one last breath and brought myself to knock on the door, a few seconds later a silhouette of a guy with fair skin with yellowish undertones who looked to be around 5 '10 appeared.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCCQynHO66

“Uh hi, my name is Kimiko but you can call me Kimi, I just wanted to welcome you to the neighborhood and everything. If you don’t mind me asking, what’s your name?” I said to the boy whose name I don’t know. “Well thank you for introducing yourself and welcoming me into your neighborhood, my name is Akira and I feel very welcomed” He said as he chucked to himself.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUbWMJLO7y

His light laughter allowed me to see his pearly white teeth, his adorable dimples and beautiful mesmerizing eyes. Continuing with the conversation I then asked “Is it just you living here?” “ Ahh, yes it is just me living here. I have an Asian mom so she kicked me out at the ripe age of 18.” He said with a hint of humor. “ Oh really, how old are you now?” I asked in amusement.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVCdaPIOX5
“I’m 21, how about you?” he replied. “Well I’m 20.” I said. “Hey, do you want to finish this inside? It’s not fully furnished although I have my couch and TV set up, we can talk and we snacks? “Oh sure, fun!” I said as I followed him into the partially empty house. Akira walked around the island and grabbed some snacks out of his cabinet.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP72bUg62oU

“I have Dagashi and other snacks is that fine with you?” he said. “Oh of course I’d love some!” I replied. “Do you drink? Because I have red wine?” He asked. “ I’d like some, although I do drink occasionally.” I replied. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4sz6v66H2

Make yourself at home he said whilst pointing toward the couch, I complied and sat on the couch as he placed the wine and dagashi in front of us. I grabbed Pocky sticks and Mochi while he poured our wine. “Where are you from?” he asked as I took a bite of the strawberry mochi ice cream.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmE70c4wvCs

“I’m from here although I’m Japanese-American, but most of my family are back in Japan. You know the same old boring life!” I replied as I picked up my wine glass. “Ahh, yes it’s not boring for me because in Japan it was much different than here!” he said as he took a bite of his onigiri. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1oSHejzmf

“Yeah I totally agree. My mom lives with me at the moment and I want to go back to Japan to visit my grandparents so badly!” I said while dragging out the dramatically 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWmwHkq90G
We talked for several more hours until I realized how late it was, he understood and suggested that he walk me home since it was really dark out, as we made it to my house I thanked him for walking me home and keeping me company today. 214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtxd5QHIDN
