Ok. So a few days ago my mum tells me that the son of a distant cousin of hers has a job for tree weeks in the town we live in. And he needs somewhere to stay during that time.
The long and the short of it: He's staying with us.
He's almost 17 and he's interested in reptiles and photography. That's what I know up to now.
He arrived with his parents this afternoon and of course there was the awkward introduction.
Then we had some cake and coffee and our parents started talking for hours. And he and I just sat there and didn't say a lot. Very awkward.
And then our parents decided to talk about depressing stuff like all the people they know of who recently died, illnesses, money and stuff... yeah. *sigh*
My mum then showed the guy the room he'd be staying in and he got settled in which gave me the opportunity to disappear in my room.
I dunno... awkwardness didn't change much during dinner, now that his parents have left. There was a little more conversation, I think.
Yeah, so here's two only children trying to get used to not being alone.
I want to be alone again. This is so strange. I feel like I can do nothing without anyone seeing.
