You wake up to the sound of your mother's rapid whispering. "Hurry, take some of those books
there. Lucien go help Maya find her suitcases. Min go wake up Ray, I'll get Serran." You then
feel a shadow over you. "Serran, wake up. It's the first day."
You open your eyes and everything is awfully blurry. You sit up and rub your eyes. "Serran
hurry, hurry. Edmund just went to the office. Go and pack some of your things. "Okay, I've
already started before." "Okay, once you're done with your stuff can you help your siblings?"
"Sure." "Okay thank you."
You hurry out of the couch and your mother hurries to fold the blankets as you run up the stairs
to your room. You go into your room and into your closet. A small walk-in-closet. On the right
wall there is a little room where you put your suitcases and bags. You pick up a big dark blue
bag with a strap that goes over the shoulder and pockets on the outside. You walk into your
room and straight to your bed. Your bed stand has drawers with stuff inside that no one has
noticed is in there, with some space in between the stand and the floor. You open one drawer,
inside there is underwear, and socks. You take half of them and put them in a mini pocket inside
of the main pocket of the bag. You open the drawer next to it, it's just full of study books and
notebooks. You open another pocket and shove them in there.
You close the drawer, then you
see a little square outline on the wall. You go and over touch it, you knock on it. It sounds
different from the rest of the wall. Then you grab the side of the square and pull. It opens and
you see a cupboard like room. Inside you see shelves filled with old looking items. On the
lowest shelf there is a box filled with accessories, earrings, rings, necklaces and more, most of
them were gifts . You take it all out. A hat,
sunglasses, a mask, a carving knife you found, an album filled with photos. You then find a little
red box with a gold like wind up handle. You open it and see a little woman in a twirling position.
She's wearing a light blue dress, with a necklace with a cross. Her hair is a beautiful shade of
red brown, her little painted eyes are a light blue. On her hands are rings, and her wrists is a
leather looking bracelet with a little cross on it. Under the woman is the accessories she is
wearing, precisely like what is on the woman. You pick up the bracelet, it's very worn out, but
that's one of the reasons that it's so attractive to the eye. You put down the box. You wonder, is the woman the past owner of the bracelet? She looks quite young, and
the box is also worn out. The rest of the things on that shelf are a journal, a pen and a bottle of
ink, a pendant and a photo album. On the shelf above is a candle, a box of matches, a bottle of
perfume or cologne, and a blanket. On the top shelf is a framed picture of what seems like a
family, a book, and a pile of papers that seem to be files of some sort. You pick up the journal
and open it.
