Chapter 13

As soon as we entered through the door what welcomed us was a warm seating area. Grandpa along with ronny and i sat on the long couch and asked the servant to bring snacks to eat and get the lunch ready as soon as possible.

Mom and dad were chatting with grandma as i was munching on the snacks. "Baby, it's lunch time soon. Eat less or you will get a tummy ache later." remained my grandma. i nodded my head and drank some milk instead. As my eyes were observing everything around me, grandpa suggested a house tour. Mom and dad have been here before so Ron and i along with grandpa went ahead by ourselves to look around.

The first floor has a living area, dining and kitchen, a toilet and reading room full of books with a glass wall facing the garden. My grandma likes plants so she has a wonderful and lovely garden and my grandpa loves books. I guess he can see grandma while studying in this room. what a lovely couple. My grandparents room is also on the first floor as they are getting old and it's convenient to stay on the lower floor. The upper floor has 4 bedrooms and a study which was previously used by grandpa and mom. The main bedroom my grandparents used previously was cleaned up for mom and dad. The two out of three guest bedrooms were converted to our rooms.

Mine and ronny's rooms were facing the backyard.They both have balconies with little space separating them.The wall facing the balcony was completely made of glass. My room has orchid colour satin curtains and Ronn's were sky blue.my grandparents tried to replicate our rooms as much as possible. It can be seen clearly for anyone who has been to our mansion.We have attached bathrooms with dressing rooms to our respective rooms. My room has a large bed with a side table both white in colour. A bookshelf attached to a study table,still empty as i have yet to shop for school supplies. Ronny's room has a bed and side table in colour white too. The study table has a few books and a showcase full of car models is on the wall opposite to the bed.My brother is a model maniac. He has many car models and Lego building sets at our home too. He was looking at the models with hearts in his eyes.I took the chance to go explore on my own. Unlike the side garden the backyard has a swing, a clean lawn mowed recently, with white fence. It's a perfect place to play. No plants to worry about being damaged. The porch also has an outdoor dining table with wooden benches around it. The study is beside my room along with the master bedroom. they face the garden. And finally across to them are the lone guest bedroom and a seating area beside stairs leading to the terrace and first floor. The view from the terrace is not much. The house is a high end area with similar houses all around. But ours doesn't have a pool. The front yard has a garage on one side and a cement tile flooring from main entrance to gate. Maybe we can get a basketball hoop here in future.They have a gardener to help grandma take care of the plants, a cook and three houshold helpers. The house is convenient with less people around. The community also has a park for kids to play at a walkable distance.

The house was very pretty. you can see the gentle touch of a lady anywhere you see. With lovely whites and pastel colours it looked serene and peaceful.
