Once my eyes were open I found myself inside a room my size. It seemed to be a bedroom with a bed, table, chair, and a gorgeous stone fireplace. The wall behind me showed a lot of greenery but I couldn't exactly make out what. To each side of the room was a wooden door. One of them lead to a tiny cozy bathroom. The other to a large kitchen filled with smaller and larger pots and an oven built into the farthest wall from the door. On top was a hole which lead outside since I could hear the wind. The walls and roof were beautifully put together with wood with no visible error insight. I suddenly noticed that there was another door in the kitchen. I walked up to it and slowly opened it up. In front of me were a garden with trees, bushes, and flowers all around. The grass had a healthy green and length but it seemed to have been placed inside recently by the looks of how uneven and soft some spots felt when I started walking on top of it.
Tears started to slowly form in my eyes as my breath became shakier. With each step, I felt more water treating to fall. There were even a small table and stool placed outside both flawlessly crafted. 
"So what do you think?" I suddenly heard him say. I looked up and found him standing up at full height as he looked down at me smiling. That smile faded when he saw my face. He quickly got down on his knees and looked at me worried. "Are you okay? Do you not like it?"
I took my time, slowly breathing in and out trying to prepare my voice so it wasn't so shaky. "Like it... Peter, I love it!" I said aloud back running up to his chin giving it a hug. He returned it by rubbing my back with his hand, while he pressed me against his face. "It's so wonderful, I really love it."

"I'm so glad because this will be your new home," he replied. 
"Really? Is this gonna be my own space?" I asked. Does he mean what I hoped he did? Was this gonna be my forever home, with him? 
"Of course if you were gonna live here, you will need your own space."
 "I love you Peter!" I almost screamed as more tears streamed out. 
"Love you too kiddo!"

"Now just explore a little while I'll pick up your cloth," he said after he hugged me for a while. He pulled his body and hand back leaving for the bedroom. While I waited I just looked around the garden admiring every little flower and plant he carefully had planted. For his size, that must have been very difficult. As my thought went further it suddenly made sense why it took him so long. Every piece of furniture had been carefully carved. In all honesty, a lot of it looked better than most of the furniture back from the farm. He did an amazing job. 
"Here you go, I'll let you have fun in there until dinner." I suddenly hear breaking my thought stream. "If you need me I will still be in the room okay?"
"Yes, thank you. Bye," I playfully said as I ran inside with the clothes in my arms. I could hear him chuckle a bit he walked off. 

I had a lot of fun exploring my new house. As outside the garden, he had left many little details and stuff for me to find. It was existing trying to memorize all the things that now belonged to me. 
As nightfall came we said our goodnight and he left for his own bedroom. Since he placed my new house in the living room that left me all alone. When I finally got to bed it was nice thinking that I wouldn't get woken up in the middle of the night, but the complete silence was kinda creepy. I was gonna miss the sound of his soft breathing but I guess it was a tradeoff I had to live with. Though eventually, I managed to fall asleep.
