JUNE'S POV
THIS HAD TO be some seriously fancy neighborhood because from the look of the Security you could tell it wasn't just ordinary people living here, and the fact that my mom was pulling up to the front of the gate, the fact that one of the security guys, one of the serious looking gun carrying men smiled, he even nodded at her, waving us in, just like that we were in, she glanced at me with a cheeky smile as she drove in and oh my gosh I couldn't believe my eyes I could believe that this was were we were gonna be staying in one of this houses that looked like this?
I couldn't contain my excitement as she drove further into the estate, houses lined up on either side of us, with carefully lawns an short fences ,I was like a kid in a candy shop, pointing and turning craning my head to look,It was physically impossible me to stay still, I couldn't I just had to see all of it I just had to, it looked like something straight out of a movie you know how the houses line up, trees littered all over.
They looked like neatly dressed students, equal amount of space between each one, they all had similar features but looked different at the same time, there was even a pink one like a house fully painted this pretty soft pink with white trimmings like a dollhouse it was breathtaking even driving past them I was in awe at how magnificent they looked,my mom kept glancing at me her smile matching mine.
Finally she came to a stop, in front of a white two storey house, shut the engine off she got down and started offloading the car,calling out for me to help her, but I couldn't move I was too stunned I couldn't believe this is where we would be staying for the next God knows how long.
It is a white with black trimmings, windows and doors.
It is beautiful,And its our?
I got down to help my mom and couldn't keep the stupid grin off my face as we moved our stuff in, everything about it was perfect.
The inside was just how it was in the video mom showed me the other day, bright,airy, very spacious and cozy looking.I'm already in love with everything about this house and we weren't even fully moved in yet. the couches, were soft, the mattress were bouncy, and the tv was humungous.
As we carried the last of the boxes in,mom pointed to the house right next to ours telling me that was were the owners lived.
I didn't see it before because i wasn't even paying attention I was so caught up in how beautiful ours was that I barely gave it a glance it was massive ,it had a high black metal gate fence so I could see everything the was trees littered all over the compound the house stood in the middle big and brown with stony accents and wooden windows and doors a sharp contrast to ours,it was breathtaking
We moved all the boxes in It was just our clothes and some other miselanious stuff so it wasn't really that much work putting stuff away because we didn't really have a lot.
I went up to my new room there wasn't a lot to it really and I had already seen it in the video mom showed me it was decently sized well lit, white walls there was a really soft and bouncy bed in the middle (yes i checked) a bookshelf, a dresser and a wardrobe and it also had a balcony were I could sit and read or watch the sunrise or something.
After I put my clothes away in the wardrobe,organized my books on the shelf and hung up some of my paintings it was starting to feel a little more like home, look at us moving on.
I changed into more comfy clothes and went to check on my mom
She had also finished putting away her stuff when I went to her room to check up on her so we wrote a list of everything we needed to get from the grocery store and headed out.
We got some groceries, some bedsheets ,some cute pink pots and other things we needed around the house, we decided to cook.
I prepared the ingredients and mom cooked one of the best jollof spaghetti I have ever tasted paired with the moistest diced plantains I dont know if they were really that good or I was just really craving a home cooked meal or i was just insanely hungry because why was i scratching the pot trying to get the last bits of pasta out as we ended the night off with a movie, she was in the middle of making jest of me for being such a foodie as she took pictures of me pot in my lap trying to hold in her laugh when she got a call to come in for the interview tomorrow morning.
She told them she'd be there, and we rushed upstairs to go pick out an outfit for tomorrows interview we ended up deciding on a black mini dress and a matching blazer and we paired it with these really cute zebra kitten heels dad gifted her for one of her birthdays.
She told me she needed to sleep and i should too.
Pulling me in for a hug she planted a kiss on my forehead " Thank you for always being there for me I love you so much my sweet girl"
"Love you too mommy, good night" I said as I walked out of her room, i heard her whisper goodnight as I walked down the hall to my room.
I wasn't exactly sleepy even though this was typically my bedtime, so I picked up a book one of my favorite cheesy romance books that I love with all of my heart,went to the balcony and tried read for a bit but I was reading the same line over and over again I dont know why but I just couldnt concentrate for some reason so I gave up and went to sleep.
