my surroundings

At number 2 lives an older woman who doesn't want anything to do with anyone. At number 4 live a man and a woman who do talk to other neighbours. At number 6 live an ageing couple who want to help everyone but don't always get the chance. At number 8 lives the youngest resident of the street. That's going well. I live at number 10 and am happy to help the others if needed. At number 12 live the ageing man and woman who don't get along with everyone, same as at number 6. They don't interact well with everyone. At number 14 live a man and woman whose children have already left home. They live there nicely. And at number 16 lives a whole family who just moved in. That's going well.
