What did you just say?, chapter 2
"These are our neighbours, Mr and Mrs Armstrong. Say hi to them," Mom said nicely.
"Hi Mr and Mrs Armstrong, I'm Ingrid. It's nice to finally meet you," I said sweetly.
"It's very nice to meet you too, Ingrid. We were just wondering, but only if she wants to, could Ingrid look after Jakob tonight while Adie and I are out? Joey is also going out but he will be back later," Billie Joe asked.
"Yeah, okay. Is that alright with you Ingrid?" Mom asked me politely.
"Sure!"
"Okay then. Come over at 5:30 this afternoon. That's when we leave," Adie said.
"Thanks Mr and Mrs Armstrong," I said.
"Oh Ingrid, you don't have to call us that if you don't want to. It makes us sound old. Just call us by our first names, okay Ingrid? You seem to know who we are anyway," Billie Joe said.
"Sure, okay. By Billie, bye Adie!" I yelled as they walked next door.
"See ya later Ingrid." And with that, they went inside.
At 5:00pm
I decided that I would leave a little early so that I could get to know Billie and Adie better. Mom was out, probably hooking up with some ass-licker. 'Stupid Dyke' I thought. 'She always abandons me for some random guy' There was no point leaving a note for her, so I just left. I walked past the fence that kept the houses apart from each other. I walked up to the front door and rang the doorbell. A very handsome Billie Joe answered the door. He was wearing a black shirt with a red necktie, black pants with a black studded belt and black shiny shoes. Lets just say what he wears on TV but neater.
"You look very handsome, Billie Joe," I commented.
"Why thank you Ingrid," he said.
"So... ..can I come in?" I asked politely.
"Sure thing." And I followed him inside, only to be greeted by a very beautiful Adrienne. She was wearing a sparkly black dress with silver sequins at the bottom and at the top of the dress. It was just below her knees. She had her hair down and she was wearing ankle height silver heels.
"You look... ... ..gorgeous Adie," I said in awe.
"Thanks Ingrid," she smiled back. She walked over to the stairs and yelled for Jakob to come downstairs. I saw a 12 year old boy race down the stairs.
"Do you need any numbers?" Adie asked.
"Um... ... ..no. I think I'll be fine." I said.
"Jakey, this is Ingrid. She's our new neighbour and she'll be looking after you tonight."
"Hi Ingrid!" He yelled.
"Hi Jakob!" I yelled back, making Billie and Adrienne laugh.
"Okay, well we'd better get going. By Ingrid! By Jakey!" Billie yelled as he walked out of the house.
"By Jakey and Ingrid! Be back at or around 2 okay?" Adie yelled as she hopped into the car.
"See ya Mom! Bye Dad!" Jakob yelled back.
"Bye Adie and Billie Joe!" I screamed
"Make sure he's in bed by 11 okay?" Adie yelled as the car pulled out of the driveway.
"Will do!" I yelled back. The car had already pulled out of the driveway and had gone down the street. I turned to Jakob.
"So... .whaddaya wanna do?" I asked.
"Um...sit and talk. Joey's told me a bit about you and that you like Green Day and stuff. I wanna get to know you better so we can be friends."
"Okay. Let's sit at the table and talk."
We talked for about an hour and a half.
"You can play the guitar?" He asked.
"Oh yeah! Can you?"
"Not really. If I try, I don't do a very good job."
"Want me to teach you how?"
"Okay!"
"I've just gotta go home and get it, okay?"
"Alright." And so I wandered outside. I unlocked the door to my house and walked inside. I wandered up to my room, grabbed my guitar and ran back outside to Jakob's house. "Sure thing." and I followed him inside.
"Hi Mr and Mrs Armstrong, I'm Ingrid. It's nice to finally meet you," I said sweetly.
"It's very nice to meet you too, Ingrid. We were just wondering, but only if she wants to, could Ingrid look after Jakob tonight while Adie and I are out? Joey is also going out but he will be back later," Billie Joe asked.
