HAILEY'S P.O.V

"Welcome home."  Mom opened the front door and for the very first time, I walked inside this sweet little house.

"Oh nice."  I nodded.  Okay.  I love this house.

"You like it?"  Mom giggled.  "Oh just tell me you like it because I've been dying to search for the best and end up with this."

"Hahaha I love it Mom, this is so cool.  Thank you."  I hugged her.

"Alright.  Let's unpack!" 

By Mom's command, the handyman team put the whole big furnish like the couch, fridge, and some things like that to its place.  Meanwhile Mom and I focus on the tiny stuff like family pictures, clocks, and our own suitcases.  We're done unpacking in 5 hours.  Pretty mess, but it's good already.  At least tonight I can focus on decorating my own room because the other rooms have perfectly managed.

"What about pizza?"  Mom smirked.  She put one last touch in the kitchen.  You know, flowery stuff.

"Oh yeah!"  I cheered.  "Let me make a call."

I ordered like a ton of pizza because we just realized we skip the lunch.  Hey, moving in with big furnish isn't the easy thing to do.  So there you go, spend the second day in Orlando - or practically first time in new house - by having pizza and some talks.

"So, what do you want to have for school?  What kind of school?"  She spoke.

"I think...I want the comfort one."  I sighed.  "The one I had back home was a bit too horrible."

"This is home now, honey.  No more New York.  You'll love Orlando like it's your hometown."  Mom smiled.  "I promise."

"And I'll try."  I raised my eyebrow.  "Mom..."

"Hmm?"

"Somebody...uhm, a random girl, spilled half of coffee to me at Starbucks at the beach yesterday."  I bowed my head.

"Oh shoot!  How come?  How was it happening?"  Mom suddenly sit real straight.  She's pissed.

"I was having some coffee at Starbucks when I walked along the beach.  So this girl, with her bikini whatever bumped into me and spilled the coffee all over me, and herself too.  But then she got upset at me."  I explained.

"She should never meet me or I'd kill her."  Mom replied.  But you know, in a serious tone.  "But why didn't you tell me before?"

"No, I think it's unnecessary.  Besides, there's a guy who helped me."  I murmured.

"A guy, huh?"  She smirked. 

"Mommy, it's not what I'm saying!"  I suddenly felt my cheeks were getting red.

"What?  I'm just repeating you.  And then?" 

"Yeah he held that girl's hand, stop her before she's about to slap me."  

"Whoa she's so...brave."  Mom raised her eyebrows.  "I wish I could meet her."

"Mom, chill!  Hahaha..."  I laughed so hard.  You should see her face.  Mom's on fire.

"So, about the guy, you know who he is?"

"That's...one thing I don't know.  It was real fast.  I saw his face, of course, but I didn't ask his name.  I don't know why, but now after second thought, I guess it's pretty rude that I didn't ask.  And also, he left pretty fast, soon as he knew I'm okay..." 

"How is he look like?"  

"Tall, pretty tall.  Around my age.  He wore a hat or something like that.  And a white tee, and blue jeans.  He's with other 3 or 4 guys but I didn't see them."  I answered.

"It's okay honey.  At least you know Orlando has kind people around."  Mom smiled.  "Is he that good looking?"

"Moooooom!"  I groaned.  No.  Please no.  Never.

"Hahaha..."  Mom waved her hand.  Yeah, we're too cool.  We're mother and daughter but hey we acted like friends.  For that, you never know when your Mom would tease you over some guys.

"It's nothing."  I shook my head.

"Sheesh, alright!  Alright no more teasing.  Go sleep honey.  It's late night already.  Sweet dream."  Mom kissed me good night and went to her room.

Since this house is only one level house, we shared the same floor.  But I'm glad because I got a pretty big room.  Big enough for a piano and guitar, a medium-size bed, a dresser, and bathroom.  So we're fine.  I put my big white valance above my bed and some additional lights around it.  I  also put on my white bedsheet.  Everything's white because I love it.  The last one, I managed my album on a small table next my bed.  Yay perfect.  Until tomorrow, Orlando.
