When we entered La Push I saw the saddest thing ever... the sky. The sky was covered in heavy grey rain clouds, there wasn't even one dot of blue sky.
The air was worse though. I rolled down the window to gulp a huge breath of cool fresh rain air, but then I got a gulp of thick musky hard to breath in air. I can tell that maybe if the rain clears up, the air will probably get more fresh. So fresh that I will be able to smell every single tree in this woodsy environment.
I closed my eyes and sunk back into my seat, imagining the smell.
I saw the house first, it was probably the hugest house in La Push. Even though I saw some pretty big houses, this one was a huge old log house, I hated it.
I know that you are all probably thinking that I'm crazy for not loving the fact that I'm going to live in a mansion. But bigger houses means more sounds and more sounds mean more confusinf vibrations.
Well since I can't hear sounds I use the feeling of vibrations, but I can only make out at least one or two vibrations at a time.
When we entered the house my mom smiled at me and said or in my case signed, "Wave, you can pick out any room in this house, and make a wise decision, I want you to be comfortable in this new house."
Yep that's my mom, she wants me to feel comfortable by bringing me out of my natural silent and still home, into a new habitat that is filled with uncomfortable vibrations.
Instead of signing back I spoke for practice in case I met my mom's old friends. "T-t-thank you, m-mom, I will do t-that n-now." My mom looked at me in surprise because I'm usually so silent, then she smiled warmly at me and singed for me to go up the stairs.
I walked up the stairs slowly not knowing what to expect. All the doors on the second floor were made of dark wood except for the one at the end of the hall that one was my favorite color. A perfect lime green.
I instantly picked up the pace of my walking. I was excited to open the door to that room, and when I did I almost cried.
The room was perfect and small. There was a twin sized on the left side of the room against the wall, a small desk with a computer and phone across the room, and a nice green rug. It was absolutly perfect.
There were two other doors in the room too and when I opened them the smile on my face grew wider. Behind one of the doors was a small but spacy closet, and behind the other one was a nice bathroom, complete with yellow cabinets a green sink, a toliet, a shower, and a tiled floor.
I absolutly felt comfortable in this room, it just made me feel at home. I felt someone come up behind be, I stiffened but turned around to see the smiling face of my mom.
Instead of signing to me my mom spoke slowly in order for me to read her lips.
"Honey, how do you like your room? I had one of my old friend's son decorate it. So... do you like it?"
I nodded, but my mom shook her head and motioned for me to speak. I took a deap breath and said very slowly, "Thank y-you, mom. I r-really love this r-room."
My mom smiled at me then walked out of my room, leaving me to stare in awe at my new room. But what I was really wondering is how did my mom get enough money to afford a house like this.
Ten minutes later I felt a vibration in my pocket. I pulled out my phone and read, Honey come down stairs I would like you to meet some people.
I ran down the stairs excited for company, but yet... I was afraid of what they would think about me.
I entered the kitchen to see my mom talking to a nice looking women and two teens, one a boy and one a girl. But they were both tall and muscular. I wonder if steroids are illegal in La Push.
My mom turned towards me and signed, Honey these people are going to be living with us. This woman, she signed pointing to the woman, Is Sue Clearwater, and the teens next to her are Seth and Leah, Seth is about your age so I bet you guys will be great frieinds. This was the only way I could afford this house, by people living with us.
I nodded and waved my hand in greeting, but when I met Seth's eyes we both froze.
