I walked to the lady and introduced myself.
"Hi! I'm Emerald. I live three houses down from you guys and I thought I'd come and see if you'd like some to help unpacking."
"That'd be lovely, Emerald. Is your mother home?"
"No, she's gone to the boardwalk."
"Ok, well I wouldn't want you out here all by yourself. How old are you?"
"I'm 16!"

I set the box down and walk up to the two boys.

"Hi, I'm Emerald. You must be Michael and Sam. Welcome to Santa Carla, murder capital of the world. Don't take the last part too seriously. I live three houses down from you and I'm always around to show you guys the town. Just give me a call or come down and ask for a tour."
"Nice to meet you. How busy does the boardwalk get at night?"
"I don't really know. How about you Sam? Got any questions?"
