Zoey's pov

I looked out the window she was already regretting the decision to live with her dad but her mom was working so much and it was almost like not having a parent at all. The rain kept hitting the window and the sound was somewhat soothing. I can hear my dad cooking in the kitchen, he's a good cook it's his job after all. He works in a pizzeria right now but he used to have a really fancy restaurant. I have been here for about two weeks the school sucks, still no friends and now bullied too can't a girl catch a break.

"Zoey dinner's ready" her dad called from the living room. I sighed not really feeling to eat right now but if I don't my dad will worry so it's not like I have a choice. I sat down opposite of dad and looked down at my plate with a sigh. I'm a little overweight which the kids tease me about in school. When you get called fatso and all other kinds of words all the time you really don't get to work up an appetite but whatever.

"Zoey could you do me a favor after dinner"? My dad asked I nodded. My neighbor she had ordered pizza before at work but she didn't get the right amount of change back if you could just return it for me she live just above us actually, I wouldn't care normally unless people came and realized they got wrong change back but seeing she is my neighbor and a really nice woman I feel bad for it going wrong to begin with" my dad explained.

"Sure dad but you know I'm not really hungry I can go return in now so I don't forget" I said trying to find a reason so I don't have to eat.

"Alright if you are sure you don't feel like eating now then alright" my dad said but he frowned and looked concerned. He doesn't know that I'm getting teased in school and I don't want to tell him. So I hurried out the kitchen and to the door and walked up the stairs.

Once upstairs I realized that I forgotten to ask what the neighbors name was all I know is that it's a woman. I ran back down and shouted to my dad what her name was.

"April O'Neil" he shouted back I nodded and repeated the name for myself to not forget and ran back up the stairs. It was only one with the last name O'Neil. I knocked and then I heard from the other side some people talking saying hide "no mikey not there" I frowned at that but okay. A woman opened the door.

"Are you April"? I asked feeling stupid who else would open the door but then again if she had people over maybe one of her friends opened it for her if they were closer to the door. She nodded and looked behind her.

"You ordered pizza from my dad's pizzeria before but he forgot to give the full change back I just came to return it" I said and started to fidget with my feet and looking down at them. April just gave a smile at me.

"You're jerry's daughter and you didn't need to give the change back but thanks" she said and took the money. She looked behind her again and started back herself to the door.

"He has talked about you so much that it feels like I already know you, how do you like New York"? She asked. I shrugged I don't really want to tell her that I kind of hate it.

*just say something quick* I thought.

"It's alright trying to get used to it most problem is trying to fit in at school" I said it wasn't a total lie. She gave a small smile then she held up a finger as telling me to wait she went inside and then came back with a paper.

"Here's my phone number if you feel like you want to talk to someone maybe we can one do some shopping together"she said and gave me the paper with her number on it. It felt nice to at least have someone I can talk to that isn't my dad.

I nodded and put it in my pocket when I took my hand out my asthma spray bottle fell out and rolled into her apartment.

*oh I'm sorry let me just get that" I said and rushed after it before April could say anything just when my hand reached it another hand that was green and had only three finger came on top of mine. I felt a little chocked and looked up and a green face with an orange band around its brown eyes. First we just stared at one another then he gave a huge smile.

"Hi" he said and waved with his other hand. Everything just became black and I felt someone catch me.
