I hope you enjoy!

I looked at the article in the newspaper, looking as shocked as ever. My parents were killed in a car crash and they made the front page. I already knew what was going to happen, I'd have to move in with Uncle Dave, much for my luck, my horrible luck. I went up to my room and packed my bags, it would be the last time I saw my room, the house was being auctioned off later that day. When I finally got all my stuff packed I waited outside for my ride, for some reason a chauffeur would be taking me to my uncle's house, that's odd! I sat and waited, then waited some more, I was bored to death. I could finally see a black corvette pull in by the road. The window of the car pulled down. "Are you April Seville?" "Yes, yes I am." "Get in the car." I put all of the boxes in the car, they didn't all fit inside, that really concerned me. "Why am I being chauffeured to my uncle's house? Is he suddenly wealthy?" "Yes he is, dear." "How?" "The chipmunks, darling, they're his ya' know." I remembered all so suddenly, Alvin and The Chipmunks, they are a very successful chipmunk music group, I was bewildered by the fact that they were so famous, and they could talk as well. I watched as we drove out of out of my side of town, and we suddenly ended up by a mansion-ish house. I walked up to the front door and knocked, a stubborn Toby answered. "April? What are you doing here?" "My parents were killed! You idiot!" "Well, geez! I'm sorry!" "It's fine. Where's Dave?" "He's at the store, buying food, the usual." "Cool, can you help me with my stuff?" I pointed to the car, with my boxes still inside." "Sure." And he helps me carry the boxes into the house. "I heard that the chipmunks live here, is that true?" "Yes, I'll go get them." And Toby comes back with six little chipmunks, who adored me. "You must be April, nice to meet you!" They all looked at me, taking in my abnormality. I could hear the garage door open. "Dave!" and they all scatter away. "Toby? Do you know where my room is?" "Yeah, I'll help you with your stupid boxes!" "I'm sorry that my boxes are so stupid to you, Toby. I can't stand up to your standards!" "It's fine, you're giving me something to do with my day, and I'm so tired of taking care of these chipmunks! They're so high maintenance." "I can tell." He helps me with my boxes again, and this time we unpack them, and make my room just like my old one at home, with my parents. "Thank you." I went downstairs, I needed to meet mu uncle. "Dave?" "You're here already? What a surprise!" "Yeah, I saw the chipmunks already, they let me be since you were coming home." "That's good, I'm glad you're here April. Go enjoy yourself, consider this as a day off." "Thanks." I spent my day by the pool, swimming by myself, I was sure Toby would rather play video games than hang out outside, he was my cousin after all, sort of, I guess. I was called for dinner after two hours by the pool, and Dave cooked up a huge feast, which he told me was the usual, I didn't really see that, since the chipmunks couldn't eat so much, boy, was I wrong! After that I went to bed, I was tired, the chipmunks wore me out, those little rascals! My life was changed so suddenly and it has become so interesting.
