^^^ surprise this is what Anna's family house looks like where they are now, the orchard is way back there as well just not on the map
December Christmas Day 9:00 am
Waking up on christmas is a rush. Even the adults rush themselves. Its as if everybody goes on candy mode even before they get to eating it. Bluez bounced on my bed waking me up before it was even breakfast time. Ugh how annoying it is when she does that, but I love her all the time. Lu was in a blue snowflake kimono. Everytime he seemed to have a different one. It was amusing and wonderful to see all the colors. They did really look pretty on him. I wondered if I should get one myself, nah I couldn't pull it off. Plus I'm not even close to japanese.origin. Bounding down the stairs I took a premade plate along thee few other plates that remained. It was like a grand race for food around christmas. Not just my brothers were hungrily devouring food by the minute the rest of my family was as well. Which was prob why Bluez had ditched me for it. I took the waffles on the plate upstairs no doubt Bluez was there now as well. We always ate there it was quiet plus we didn't have to mind our manners around Aunt Salt and the others. Especially Aunt Salt she was annoying when it came to that.
As I predicted she was there as I cracked my door open along with Lu and Chide who were playing video games on Chide's ds systems.
Chide waved a hello to me as I sat down on my bed besides Bluez while Lu gazed at me before greeting me with a hola. What is he spanish now or something? Nvm that the events from the school were still haunting me. Mr. Denny's eyes were daunting as they looked at me for the person he so lustfully wanted and Yes we call Principal Denny, Mr Denny outside of school since he was more of a fellow neighbor friend then a Principal at times. Plus he even said he didn't mind he always thought Principal Denny was over formal.
It was Bluez hand that waved fastly in front of my face that took me from my thought.
"Hey you going to start eating the plate now you already finished your food a minute ago and are now just eating air," Bluez said which made me look mindlessly at my fort she was right. My face turned red from embarrassment. Lu and Chide were still on the floor sitting on my red pink carpet as they played pokemon and mario karts on the ds systems.
Chide just sounded out a sigh and scream of pure defeat. "Ugh that's the fifth time you beat me and pokemon and the tenth time in mario karts you ever going to let me win,,"" Chide said not frustrated just amused.
"Nah pokemon is my game it's from Japan and you keep pressing the break button as well as running into the walls on Mario karts that's why you keep losing" Lu said with a straight non sympathy face.
"at least you can say I'm a good competitor I said I wouldn't let you win easy didn't I?" Lu continue smiling as he looked at Chide to see his reaction.
By this time me and Bluez had already been watching and listening to them over a minute.
"I guess, it's more fun this way anyway, at least I know you will bring your A game each time, I love it when people don't go soft," Chide said smiling as he pressed some buttons on the ds system in his hands.
Lu looked at us suddenly I tilted my head in question.
"Hey Bluez, Anna and Chide, you want to see something," Lu said with his normal emotionless face. I gazed at him and looked at Bluez she was as clueless as I was. I reluctantly got off the bed settling the finished plate on my bedside table to take care of it later Bluez followed me. We both sat in front of Lu next to Chide as all four of us were in a circle.
"Hold out your hands all of you I'm going to show you something from a memory of mine," Lu said a very bright smile appearing on his face. It must of been a good memory to make him smile like that I thought before holding out my hand Chide and Bluez did as commanded as well.
