Dexter didn’t like making new friends, but she wouldn’t leave him alone.

Their families had a good relationship with each other. Hence, he would see her almost every day. Old Mr, Russell adored her dearly and advised Dexter, “Leanne’s family is still new to the area. We have to help them out. She’s younger than you, so be a nice older brother and take her outside to play, alright?”

“I don’t want to play with her.”

As soon as he said that, her sweet voice was heard from downstairs, “Dex, it’s time to go to school!”

Dexter covered his ears and kept silent.

Her family was busy and didn’t have time to pick her up from school. They had to rely on the Russell Family to take her home after school.

It was raining that day. Dexter ran back home by himself without waiting for her.

There was no one at home. The sky had already turned dark by the time he completed his homework. There was no noise downstairs, and the rain was still pouring heavily.
