Inside the house was just as beautiful.

"I'll show you around," Lori said.

"Sure," I smiled.

"Your room in next to mine, we call it 'dad's unfinished room'," she said going upstairs. "But for now you can sleep with me," she opened the door to her room.

It was a calm orange color with candles everywhere, giving the room a nice smell.

Very peaceful.

"Like it?"

"Yeah," I smiled.

"Ready for 'dad's unfinished room'?" she asked.

"Yeah," I laughed.

We walked out of her room to my room next door.

She opened it and looked around.

The tape was still on the wall, the walls were half painted and the floor cover and the ladder was still there.

"Wow,"

"It's been like this forever," she said.

"Why?"

"Don't know. On with the tour,"

Lori had me on her pull out bed, under hers.

I was already homesick and it was my first night here.

I had a dream about walking home from school with my two best friends, True and Annie. We had just come from football practice and were heading over to the bakery.

We normal would do our homework there while eating a sweet treat.

The dream felt so real to me.

I could smell the freak baked goods.

Tomorrow was my first full day in America.

When I was younger I took forever to get to the good parts.

What a silly child I was.
