CHAPTER 3: Moving Day
Sweat formed on her forehead as she grunted softly, letting the box drop softly on the ground. Hoshiyo sighed, wiping her forehead. Her father walked into the room, "Hoshi, finished bringing in the boxes?" Dai asked Hoshiyo, who had just sat down upon one of the sturdier boxes and nodded. "Good! You might want to unpack, since tomorrow is the first day of school!" Dai said happily, leaving the room. Hoshiyo had started to unpack.
Summer, the last day is today. Hoshiyo and her father spent the majority of summer vacation going on cruises or going to amusement parks. They had started moving earlier today at seven in the morning, driving, and they got to their new house eight hours later. It was very tiresome, and they had finally unpacked everything out of the moving trucks and into the house.
After another hour had passes, Hoshiyo had everything unpacked. Her bedroom was medium sized, not too big, not too small. Her bed was in the middle of the room, up against the wall with soft pink covers with a soft pink comforter. She had two large soft pink pillows on the bed that had turquoise hearts stitched on it with gold thread, two hot pink medium sized pillows up against the two large ones, two small turquoise pillows with pink hearts on it up against the medium ones, and one pink heart pillow in the middle of them. The four posts on the bed are a turquoise in color and reach up to the ceiling. The canopy is sunshine yellow in color with yellow tassels hanging from them. And above the two large pillows is a small mirror that actually in the shape of a sun.
The floor is just wood and the walls are somewhat of a plum color and somewhat of an orchid color. Hanging from the ceiling are yellow beads that hang down to the top of the two large pillows on her bed. Connected to the beads are purple cloths in the shape of a rectangle with light bulbs inside of them that hang at the sides of the beds. There is also a small lamp next to the bed with a weird squiggly shape for the metal pipe and for the lampshade is sunshine yellow, as usual. The lamp is planted on top of a small fuzzy pink rug. Behind the lampshade up against the wall are three boxes. The large zebra striped one on the bottom is labeled 'MOM'. The medium sized tiger striped one on top of the zebra one is labeled 'DAD'. And lastly, the smallest one on top is leopard printed with the words labeled 'ME' on it. Inside are pictures books and items that all three have used.
Up against the wall next to the door to the hallway and near the weird shaped lamp is a large bookshelf. The bookshelf is chockfull of books with little states, pictures, and items all over it.
And lastly, and strangely, is the window, which is right next to the walk-in closet. The window has turquoise curtains that are open during the day, and closed during the night. The curtains have colorful beads and fake sunflowers and other types of flowers on it. Right below the window is her stereo system with Indie, Rock, Pop, Jazz, and Alternative music. And to finish off the room, in the middle of the wall, between the bed and the window is a beautiful portrait of Hoshiyo in her Renaissance dress. And Hoshiko painted it.
