The boy clears his throat. \"Meredith Chevalier? Tall girl? Big, curly hair?\" Then he looks at me like I'm crazy or half deaf, like my Nana Oliphant. Nanna just smiles and shakes her head whenever I ask, \"What kind of salad dressing would you like?\" or \"Where did you put Granddad's false teeth?\" \"I'm sorry.\" He takes the smallest step away from me. \"You were going to bed.\" \"Yes! Meredith lives here. I've just spent two hours with her.\" I announce this proudly like my little brother, Seany, whenever he finds something disgusting in the yard. \"I'm Anna! I'm new here!\" Oh, [Gosh]. What. Is with. The scary enthusiasm? My cheeks catch fire, and it's all so humiliating. The beautiful boy gives an amused grin. His teeth are lovely - straight on top and crooked on the bottom, with a touch of overbite. I'm a sucker for smiles like this, due to my own lack of orthodontia. I have a gap between my front teeth the size of a raisin. \"Étienne,\" he says. \"I live one floor up.\" \"I live here.\" I point dumbly at my room while my mind whirs: French name, English accent, American school. Anna confused. He raps twice on Meredith's door. \"Well. I'll see you around then, Anna.\" Eh-t-yen says my name like this: Ah-na.”",
