Anthony's POV
I got dressed quickly, my mind still replaying the events with Jake. I changed into my house clothes and looked around my room, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness. My brother and sister weren't home yet, and the house felt unusually quiet.
As I sat on my bed, the silence was suddenly broken by a soft tapping sound. At first, I thought I was imagining things, but the sound persisted. It was coming from my window. My heart raced, and I stood up slowly, wondering who could be outside. I had never experienced something like this before.
I walked cautiously to the window and peeked through the curtains. To my surprise and relief, I saw Jake standing below, looking up at me. He had a playful grin on his face, and when he saw me, he waved.
"Open the window!"
