After school, Mina and his brother Chalky carpooled back home with their older brother Sparky and sister Sapphire. On the drive home, Mina talked to his siblings about his day and revealed to them that his class took a field trip to his house and had painted the walls in their bedrooms, which surprised his siblings.
As they entered back to the house, Mina gave his siblings a tour of their rooms and by how colorful they have since become. The first room they went to was Mina and Sparky's.
"Wow, just what we expected," said Sparky.
"Yup," said Mina. "A nice flare of a color gives us the warmth we need."
Then they moved on to Sapphire's room.
"Amazing," said Sapphire. "This color matches how I set up my room, and even matches my bed and other things. I always like everything blue and beautiful."
And finally, they moved on to Chalky and Rocky's room.
"Wow!" said Chalky. "That looks like just the room for little brothers."
"Indeed it is," Mina replied. "And now that the paint is dry, let's get to work unpacking and decorating our walls."
So Mina and his siblings then worked together finishing up with the decorations to their rooms. Their rooms finally had posters and picture frames and other things to make their rooms stand out. Then they surprised their mother to their rooms and then when the father came home later at 6:00 PM, he became amazed at their rooms being painted and decorated.
Later, Mina invited his neighbor Phoebe over to check out the rooms having been all finished.
"I have a surprise for you," said Mina.
"What is it?" she asked.
"That's a secret," he said. "Just keep your eyes closed and walk with me and I'll show you."
So Phoebe kept her eyes closed as Mina promised her to do and led he the way.
As they went up the stairs in his house, he took Phoebe to his and Sparky's room.
"All right," said Mina. "Now you may open your eyes."
Phoebe opened her eyes and gasped with delight.
"Wow!" said Phoebe. "You certainly have the nicest bedroom of all."
"Thanks," said Mina. "I'm glad you enjoyed. We couldn't have gotten the job done without our class."
"And it wasn't as stressful painting as I thought it would be," said Phoebe.
"Not at all," said Mina. "I can't wait to tell the Friz tomorrow about what wonderful bedrooms we have now."
And then on the next day, Mina gave a speech in front of the class about their field trip to the house and how he and his siblings finally finished decorating their rooms after the paint job had been done. When he was done, the entire class gave a round of applause. Plus the rest of his classmates couldn't wait to see his house once he would invite them each to spend time.
THE END
