Welcome To Derry

The engine of your parents car purred as it accelerated down a narrow road sheltered with trees. Many hours had passed, and you were getting antsy from sitting in the car.

"How much longer?" you groaned. 

Your parents replied with fifteen minutes. 

You noticed that between the trees, as the woods got deeper that they got darker as well. The trees were chick, and healthy with vividly green leaves. Before you knew it your car whizzed passed the "Welcome To Derry" sign, and nervousness began to invade you. 

The car eventually arrived on a homey street with small and modest houses. As your parents pulled into the driveway, you began to examine this frail house. It appeared to have a 60's curb appeal including; a Dirty red roof, weathered white siding, and only one story with a concrete basement. 

Your father turned to face you "What do you think (Y/N)?". 

"It looks kinda old" you muttered.

"That's cause it is". He chuckled, while your mother smiled. 

When they bought the house, they bought a key ready home that already had furniture. So all that was left to do was bring in the boxes of memorabilia, and clothes. After everything was moved in your father sloped into the couch, and your mom began to dial a number. When you walked by her you could hear her ordering pizza. 

Your room was tiny, but nice. A cozy twin sized bed hugging the wall. Some navy blue curtains hung over the window, a chipped white dresser next to the closet, and a matted rug in the center of the floor. This was your room. 

You began to unpack your bags of clothes. They were neatly folded, which made it easy to organize and slide into the old rickety draws of the dresser. You began to faintly hear circus music from outside. Driven curious by the noise, you got up and gazed out of the window. A single red balloon was floating in the street. You began to wonder to yourself 'What poor kid lost their balloon'? Suddenly your thoughts were interrupted by your mother calling your name. The pizza had arrived.
