I sighed as I flopped down on the blue-checkered bed in Sasha's spare bedroom. Her nanna was really nice and as she let me stay, that makes her nicer in my book. She was very different from her grandaughter though, where as Sasha was bright and bubbly, she was calm and collected, but she had so much energy for someone of her age.

When we arrived at the house it was small, only having three bedrooms, a kitchen/diningroom, loungeroom, bathroom and laundry. As I looked around I thought of the multistory hotels in Bali and the beaches and pools. I tried not think of my family as I knew that I would start to get upset so I thought of something else. One Direction, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, Cher Lloyd, Little Mix.

Ok, now that thats settled I got my ipod out and looked for a place to plug it in my hub. Yes, thats right, I brought my iPod hub. I'm not even sure why, but now that I think about it, it was definately a good idea. Pressing shuffle on my favourite playlist, I start dancing as 22 by Taylor Swift comes on. The artists that I mentioned before are definitely my favourites. Especially Taylor Swift. I went to her concert in March and it was amazayn, like totally phenomenial and her voice is extrordinharry! The way she sings is fabalouis and her songs are definately brilliam.

"Tonight feels like the perfect night, to dress up like hipsters, and make fun of ur exes. uh huh, uh huh. Tonight feels like a perfect night, to have breakfast at midnight, fall in love with strangers. uh huh, uh huh. We're happy fr-"

"OMG I LOVE THAT SONG," screams Sasha as she runs into the room and jumps on the bed, interupting my singing and as an afterthought she adds, "Oh yeah, and your an amazayn singer too."

"Oh I say that too!" I scream back, though not nearly as loud.

"Hey Maddie," she says thoughtfully, "We should go busking, tomorow you know, seeing as we don't have anything planned. Have you ever been before?"

I chuckled to myself as I thought about yesterday, "Yeah Sasha, I have, yesterday.."

"OMG thats soooo cool!, you know I havn't ever been and I want to and I play the keyboard and sing and do you play any instruments?"

"I shook my head and tried to process what she said in the space of five seconds but I got out a reasonable answer, "That would be cool if you came and I play the guitar, recorder and a bit of piano. So do you want to go tomorrow?"

"Yeah, that will be like so so so so much fun! We could get like $20!"

Or more than that, I said to myself as I thought about what I had recieved earlier. "Anyway Sasha, it sounds like fun but I am really tired and Its about 10:30, so we had best get off to sleep now."

"Ok," she said degectedly, "I'll see you in the morning."

Yes, you certainly will, I said in my head as I walked over to turn the music off. Well, life certainly can't get any better while i'm in London thought. Despite Sasha's bubbliness she was a really nice person and I didn't need to talk much around her, she seemed to do enough for both of us. As I fell asleep I couldn't help but wonder where her parents were. Oh, well, I'll worry about that in the mroning.

"Wakey Wakey, eggs and bacey," someone yelled in my ear, and I had a not so sneaking suspicion to whom that was.

"Sasha go away, whats the time, I'm trying to sleep."

"Nooo, you need to wake up, it's 11:30 and we're going to go busking!"

11:30! I shot up and jumped out of bed. woah, I only wake up at 10:00, max. I must have been really tired to wake up this late. I saw Sasha standing over at my wardrobe, looking through my clothes. She was wearing high waisted denim shorts and had a white blouse tucked in with a long owl necklace hanging over her neck. Her hair was natural and down, just hanging wavily around her face, and she only had mascara on her face.

I saw that she had grabbed out a dress of mine, it came to about lower thigh and navy blue with spots on it. I liked that dress, it suited my body shape perfectly and it was rather comfortable. "Hey, put this on Maddie," she said, "It will suit the guitar nicely." I smiled and took it from her and she turned around politely to give me some privacy as I put it on.

We hopped down the corridor, coincidenatlly in sync, and we stopped at the openening to the dining room. "Sasha, Maddie, is that you?" her nanna called,

"yes," we replied.

"Maddie, I just wanted you to know, that you are welcome to stay with us for a while," she said with a warm smile, "my granddaughter has been lacking in company her own age so it's nice that you're here, now you go and have fun."

"Thankyou," I replied, "I dont really want to take advantage of your generosity, so if you need me to leave, thats ok, umm sorry, but what do you want me to call you?"

"Oh," she laughed, "you can just call me nanna, otherwise it will just get confusing."

"Thankyou,.. nanna..," I replied, it is very kind of you to take me in and all."

"Its absolutaly fine, now do you girls want lunch, or are you going out first?"

"We're going out first," said Sasha, we'll buy our lunch with the money we get."

"Ok then, now you dont go and get yourselves hurt or anything, and dont annoy anyone," she finished as we walked out the front door. As we left her house I took my time to look at the garden as I hadn't been able to see anythign the night before. It was very quaint and neat, very much like a grandma garden, it had many different flowers and trees and was quite lovely. I took note of a swing under a large willow tree and then opened the squeaky, iron gate to leave the premises.
