I may have mentioned before that I've been mentoring the neighbor kid. His home life sucks, he's a dork, and a major social outcast. That shit's rough when you're 10, I went through it myself.
We get along, so he hangs out at my place all the time. Mainly playing video games and watching anime. Kid's got good taste too, he's nuts about Death Note at the moment. Never mind that I'm old enough to be his dad, he keeps saying that I'm the older brother he always wanted.
Apparently having a kid come over and hang out all the time is starting to skeeve out some of the neighbors, and the goddamn trailer park rumor mill is going into effect.
So yeah. Fuck my life.
Good job. I had something similar; just after I finished high school the kid next door used to hang around my place all the time because his dad was dying of cerebral palsy and his mum was losing her mind. I felt sorry for the guy because he was the same, dorky and didn't have many friends on top of the rest... a few months after his dad died, his mum couldn't pay the mortgage and they moved away. I like to hope I helped him out a bit, but he's probably fucked up now.
fuck them if they want to call you a paedo. it might be a good idea if you leave windows and doors open when he's over though; people are less likely to suspect funny business.
You will live on inside him forever.
if it was anyone else I'd be certain they were making a joke
