[American Entertainment] Dance out of my youth

The author has something to say:

*Finally made a move on this cute little Dutch brother!

*Childhood sweetheart, the story is purely fictitious, the details are all nonsense, and I have never been to London or Kingston, so I don't know what the neighborhood is like!

Fortunately, there were no moving cars on the road.

At noon in summer, there are not many pedestrians on the roadside.

The twin brothers Harry and Sam rushed down, yelling behind him.

Tom is 9 years old and Harry and Sam are 6 years old.

"Tom, why did you stop?" Harry and Sam didn't have their own bicycles yet, so they were very jealous of the little brother's bicycle.

"Look," Tom pointed to the truck of the moving company not far ahead, on the side of the road. "Mrs. Madison's has a new owner."

Sam asked ignorantly, "Where did Mrs. Madison go?"

"She died." Tom turned to look at his brother.The three brothers actually didn't quite know what "death" meant.

"It's a pity we won't have Mrs. Madison's honey biscuits any more," said Harry, trying to look old-fashioned.

"Want to go and see?" Tom asked.

Sam nodded, and Harry hesitated, then nodded too.

Tom got off his bike, pushed it over to what used to be Mrs. Madison's front yard, and leaned his bike against the railing.

The workers of the moving company were carrying boxes and furniture in. A white man in his 40s briefly appeared on the porch. The garage door was open. A square wooden table was placed outside the garage door. A short-haired girl stood beside the table. , was fiddling with something with his head down.

Tom hesitated, then walked over to the garage.

"Hi."

The girl looked up at him, "Hi."

"My name is Tom, Tom Holland, and we—this is my brother, Harry, Sam—we live over there." He pointed in the direction of his own house.

"Grace, Elliot." The girl looked up at the twins again.The twins followed behind the older brother, looking very well behaved.

"What's this?" Tom looked curiously at the things on the table.

"Drone."

"Wow!" Tom's eyes widened in surprise: Drones are a very new and fashionable thing now, and - very expensive!But the thing on the table is not quite like the drone he imagined, because it does not have the shape of an airplane, but an object like a propeller, which is actually more like a cross.There are two parts boxes on the table full of parts and tools.

Grace quickly put away the body and parts of the drone.Boys are bears, and she can't risk having them break her parts.

She is half a head taller than Tom, with a delicate little face, oval-shaped face, big and bright eyes, dark brown in color, dark brown in hair color, short hair reaching to the ears, revealing small ears.

The skin is not fair, not quite like the skin color of white people.

"My family just moved here. Are there any customs here in Kingston? For example, do you want to visit your neighbors?"

"I don't know, I have to go home and ask my mother." Tom answered honestly.

"What's your mother's name?"

"Nicola, everyone calls her Nikki."

"Did Nikki let you eat chocolate?"

Tom froze for a moment, and saw that Harry and Sam were already nodding vigorously.

Grace took a whole box of M&M's out of a desk drawer and gave each of the three boys a small bag.

"My house is very messy now, after a few days it will be cleaned up, you can come and play."

Sam asked, "Is there anything fun in your house?"

"I have a trampoline, and my dad will put it in the backyard, and we can play on the trampoline for a long time."

Harry's eyes lit up, "That's really great!"

Sam asked anxiously: "Can I play now?"

"Not yet. You have to know that moving is very troublesome. Mom has to clean up the house first, so that Dad can have time to install a trampoline for me." Grace said very methodically.

Sam thought for a moment, "I could wait a few days."

Grace laughed, "You're so cute." She reached out and pinched his cheek.

Sam was a little embarrassed and hurriedly hid behind his elder brother.

Summer means that the kids just have to be busy playing all day long.

The environment of the community they live in is very good, and the security is good. Almost every family has children. The children's social circle is closely related to the parents' social circle, which overlaps but not completely overlaps.

The first day the Elliots moved in, it didn't cause much trouble among the neighbors until Mrs. Elliot came in and out frequently.

Tom Holland finally knew why he had always felt that Grace didn't look very white that day: she really wasn't, she was biracial, and Mrs. Elliott was a black-haired Asian.At the dinner table, he heard his mother Nicky talking to his father Dominique about this incident, saying that Mrs. Elliott was very fair-skinned and did not look like a traditional Asian, and that she was Chinese and attended a language school in Kingston. Teaching English, the students include Chinese, Koreans, and Japanese. He also said with a smile that he only knew that not all Asians speak Japanese or Chinese.

There are more and more Chinese people in London every year, which is actually not very rare.

Seeing Grace again, Tom looked at her curiously: she was so beautiful that he could tell it apart even at the age of 9.Beautiful people conform to the golden ratio, although he doesn't know this yet, but beautiful people look very comfortable and can make people feel happy, which he knows instinctively.

Mrs. Elliott wasn't home, and Grace said Mama had gone to work.Mr. Elliott was at home, entertaining his daughter's little friends.

Grace took the three boys to her small backyard, where a trampoline had been installed.The twins let out a cheer at the same time, and ran over.

Mr. Elliott was on the trampoline, instructing the twins on how to push.

Grace asked, "Aren't you going to play?"

Tom had thought about it a long time ago, but he still restrained himself, "They will play first. What about you?"

"I work out with it every day."

"Exercise?" Tom asked puzzled.

She smiled, "You don't understand this."

Dominique was also on the trampoline, watching over the younger children.

Dominic is a freelancer and spends more time at home.Tom said that his mother was pregnant and didn't go to work recently, so now his father took them out to play and sent him to dance school most of the time.

"Are you learning to dance?"

"Ah."

"How do you like it?"

"I like it very much. It's just that sometimes the practice is really tiring."

"It's all like this. Dancing is 'acquisition' and physical memory, so it requires a lot of practice. I used to learn gymnastics, and gymnastics is also 'acquisition', which requires a lot of practice."

"Gymnastics? Are you still learning gymnastics?" Tom asked hurriedly.

"I don't want to learn anymore. I fell off the balance beam the year before last and broke my left wrist." She said lightly.

Tom suddenly felt pain in his wrist.Full of pity, he said, "That hurts so much!"

"It hurt so much, I cried."

"How old are you?"

"It's almost 11. What about you?"

"My birthday is in June, and I'm 6 years old." He proudly puffed out his small chest.

"My birthday is September."

The three Holland boys had a great time that day.

When Tom got home, he told Nikki that he wanted a trampoline too.

Dominic was a little hesitant, "Mom is about to give birth to a little brother or a little sister. After the baby is born, mom and dad will be very busy and don't have much time to look at you—you know that if you play on the trampoline, you need an adult to be there." Watching from the side, right?"

Tom was disappointed, but nodded obediently.

Harry comforted his brother, "It's okay, we can go to Grace's to play. Daddy, can we go to Grace's to play anytime?"

"Harry, try not to cause trouble for others. If you want to go over, Mr. Elliott will have to leave work and take care of you."

"Does Mr. Elliott work from home?" Nikki asked.

"Yes, he is a computer expert and works from home most of the time."

"There is only one child in his family?"

"Yes, there's only one child, Grace."

How many children you want is a private matter, so there is nothing to say about it.

Tom felt that Grace was really pitiful!Well, twins can be really annoying sometimes, but they're also really cute when they're cute.He also sometimes wonders what the family would be like without the twin brothers—that would be so boring!Although the younger brothers are sometimes silly, but generally speaking, it's okay!

Grace has no brothers and sisters, so she is alone!

Grace had no idea that the poor kid next door had secretly felt sorry for her for a long time.

The 3 boys are actually okay, a little naughty, but generally speaking, the tutoring is good.Tom was sometimes shy and sometimes wild and naughty, and the twins were a little more naughty, probably because they were so young.

Mom had only met the Holland brothers once.She is very busy. In addition to going to the language school, she also has some volunteer work.Dad is usually at home. Since she broke her wrist, Dad has changed jobs and is home most of the time so that he can have more time to take care of her.

Dad seemed to like the Holland brothers.However, it is of course impossible for my father to like the Holland brothers more than her, and my father is not the kind of man who likes children very much, otherwise it is impossible for her to be the only child in the family.

What the mother meant was that if there is one child, one is enough, and she can't take care of any more.My mother has several brothers and sisters. She was fed up with noise since she was a child, and she didn't like too many children.

Among her classmates, there are not many only children, usually two or three children. Grace does not envy those classmates who have several children in their families.

This is a very simple math problem. In a family, parents spend money and energy on one child, and it is definitely different from spending on several children.

As an only child, what she has is the wholehearted care and love of her parents, and she does not want to share it with other children at all.

The Holland brothers were just guests, that was different.
