I carry out the box of cupcakes and knock on Mrs. Smith's door. He opens the door, "Hello sweetie! How are you?"
I smile as she lets me in, "Great! Just thought I'd stop by!" I place the cupcakes on the kitchen countertop. "Would you like some coffee, honey?" She asks while picking up a cup and placing it in the coffee machine as I nod.
I smile while sipping it.
She leans on the counter, "So, how's it going with school?"
"Pretty good, I have a big speech this Friday, it's scary." I reply
"Don't worry, you'll do good! Then you got spring break, huh?"
"Yep, going to visit my grandparents."
"That sounds great, quality time with family is always nice. I'm going to go on a trip as well. I won't be back for a while though." She says while pointing at a postcard of Hawaii.
"Wow! That's gonna be so much fun! When will you be back?"
"Probably not for a while. It was a nice talk, hon, but I gotta get packing." She says
I give her a hug and start to head back home. My other neighbor and one of my best friends, Trea, waves over, comes to me and puts his arm over my shoulder.
"Hey! What's good?" I ask.
He looks at me oddly, "Why do you always go over to Mrs. Smith's house? She died a year ago!"
