The first time that I met Edward I was helping my dad, Charlie, clean up our garden. My mom, Renee was in the kitchen making our dinner for that night and well my sister, Angela, was reading and stuck in her own world. I mean Angela was really a recluse at the age of 14. I really felt bad for her, but how was I supposed to break her shell. I was at the time only 9 years old. I loved her and admired her, but she never made friends easily and would shy away.
Therefore, to escape the boredom in my house I decided to help Charlie. We were putting the tools away when we saw a moving van and a Mercedes Benz park in front of the house next door. We watched as a husband and wife directed their two children and the movers to the front door and the garage. That was the day that I met Edward and his sister Alice. My dad made small talk with Carlisle and Esme Cullen while I just gazed at Edward not saying a single word. Renee soon called Charlie and me to dinner so we parted ways with the Cullens and rushed inside our house.
Now you might wonder why I started my story with how I met Edward, but was so shy and did not say a damn word to him. How could I know him in the end? Well let us fast forward to the present.
Today, I am still living next door to Edward and he and I are twenty-one years old and still living with our parents. We are both unemployed and I suspect he is doing drugs and hanging out with the wrong crowds. Moreover, guess what we do not talk to one another. Why? Well a lot changed when we started talking and we had a friendship, albeit a secret one at that since I was unpopular, and we liked to talk to one another about our secrets, but we had a fight at the end of 9th grade and since then have not been comfortable in one another's presence. Oh yea and I was in love him all through those years and I suspect that I might still have feelings for him, even though I left for college out of state to get away from them.
Oh shit now what am I going to do to rekindle Edward's friendship with me? I would like to tell you more about our friendship and how it went downhill and how I have come up with a plan to win Edward and make him a better person and myself of course. I am Bella and I am going to make myself feel confident and outgoing within myself. I hope that Edward can too and I am not too late.
