I woke up a bit earlier than usual today. my mom wasn't up yet, so i tried going back to sleep. i don't think it helped a lot, so i stood back up and walked down.
i was on my tippy-toes, trying not to disturb my sound-sleepers of parents. i knew what floorboard creaked and what didn't, so it was possible for me to get down.
mom wasn't up yet, right? i was wrong. both of my parents were sitting at the kitchen table with some kind of map inbetween the both of them. i looked at it from the stairway before my dad noticed me.
"Oh, good morning, Mikoe. We're discussing the possibility of a new house," My dad smiled and motioned for me to come down to them. with shaky legs, i stepped down from the stairs and walked over to them.
"nonononono, i don't want a new house! i like it here! in this neighbourhood! in this school!" i thought. but i didn't say it out loud. i couldn't object if they already decided.
"so, get ready for school, honey. you still need school for now," mom finished. i stood up and walked back to my bedroom, and starting to get ready.
