The Neighbor

Sarah and Mark, a newlywed couple, had just settled into their new home. After spending a whole day unpacking and getting everything in order, they planned to rest during the weekend. But waking up on Saturday morning, covered in sweat, they realized that their air conditioner conked out during the night.

“Hi, I'm Jessica, I live next door.” The she said, her cherry red lips pulled back in a smile, revealing her perfect teeth. “I just came by to welcome you to the neighborhood.”

“Hi, I am Sarah .” said Sarah said. “Come on in, Jessica.”

“Thanks, it’s hot out there,” Jessica replied, holding out the gift basket. “I thought I was going to melt when I came here.”

“You just came to the only house in the neighborhood without an AC.” Sarah laughed, her bottle green eyes twinkling as she took the gift basket from Jessica. “Ours broke down last night and we can’t get anyone to repair it.”

“That’s too bad! Well, you are welcome to come by and hang out at my house, until you get somebody out here to repair your AC.”

“That sounds great.” Sarah smiled. “Let me get my husband and we will meet you there.”
