The next day, Ron had arrived early and was already putting all the boxes into the big moving van, "All set!" Ron called out hitting the ody of the van as a way of alerting the family that they were ready to move. "Alright!" Xavier responded in a loud voice.
As Ron drove out in the van, the rest sat in the car , Xavier got into the driver's seat and started the car , soon they were on the road to a new city.
Hours passed and they arrived at a very large city, New City. The city was bustling with life , even at night, the streets were well lit, alot of people could be seen walking on the pavements, the sounds of vehicles honking could be heard clearly, tall buildings stood erect towards the sky as if they were about to pierce it through, it was indeed a sight to behold.
"Whoa, this is truly amazing" Alexa who was almost drooling said as she peered out of the window, "it is really a wonderful sight" Celine chipped in. "Exquisite " Xenon said simply as she took a long glance at the view once more.
"We would be home in the next ten minutes" Xavier announced in an excited tone.
Few moments later, they arrived at a beautiful house big enough for their whole family. The house was well lit and had a neat appearance, the ground was tarred with concrete and a little flower bush was around the corner of the house.
"Welcome to our new home!" Xavier announced with his hand wide open with a smile on his bright face. "Well, this is just so lovely dear, absolutely lovely, weldone darling!" Celine said gleefully as she gave her husband a big hug. "Oh.. My.... Goshhhh...dad this is totes amazing, I love this , thank you dad!" Alexa squealed for joy as she gave her father a brief hug and ran in to inspect their new home. "Wow father, this is really amazing thank you so much" Xenon said with a faint smile on her face , she moved forward to her dad, bowed and gave him a hug. Though the scene was a little bit cringe, Celine and Xavier still loved the fact that their daughter still had love for them, they went closer and hugged her as Xavier stroked her hair gently. "Your room is upstairs dear, the one with the silver doorknob." Xavier said pointing at the stairs , though the smile had disappeared from Xenon's eyes, she just gave a slight nod and headed upstairs.
Xenon found her room, turned the doorknob and enters inside. What she saw made her eyes widen in great awe.
The room was an absolute vision of serenity and total tranquility. Every surface was spotless, not a single form of dust or dirt in sight. The walls, floor, and furniture were all a flawless white, creating a sense of unity. The bed, a sleek white platform with crisp white sheets and a plush white duvet, was made to perfection, with not a single crease on them , the pillowed were also arranged in an orderly manner.
A big white desk stood close to the mirror, it was clear of cluster only a laptop and a neat pile of books sat orderly on the table with a white chair tucked into the desk.
The wardrobe was arranged and organized with precision, the cloths were neatly folded and put in place with no hint of disorderliness .
Even the windows were spotless, allowing sunlight and moonlight to overwhelm the room and bounce off the white surfaces. The overall effect was one of serenity a space that seemed to glow with an inner light.
Despite being a teenager's room, there were no hints of rebellion or chaos. Instead, the space felt like a sanctuary, a place where one could retreat from the world and find solace in the calmness. The room seemed to whisper, "Breathe deeply, relax, and let go of your worries."
In this spotless white sanctuary, time stood still, and the world outside receded, leaving only the gentle hum of silence. It was a room that seemed to embody the phrase "inner peace," a space where one could find solace and tranquility in a chaotic world.............
'Wait what the ?.......... '
Xenon was indeed lost in a roller coaster of thoughts for a minute, oh well it was her room and her's alone . She took sone few steps into her sanctuary, she ran her hands across the crisp sheets of her bed, it felt as soft as wool , then she walked over to the mirror at the other side of the room an took a long look at her frail body and pale skin. " Perfect" she smiled at her self and soon retreated to her gloomy countenance. Then she went downstairs to get her belongings from the van.
Alexa's room on the other hand, was far different from Xenon's room; her room was more colourful then that of Xenon's, her bed was sleek with a lavender duvet on it, at the head side of the bed, eight plushies were placed neatly, her wardrobe stood gracefully and the right wing of the room. Her room gave a loud and vibrant appearance. " yayyyy! amazing" she squealed taking a quick glance at her mini palace before heading downstairs to pick up her belongings from the van.
"So we finally get separate rooms, well it's better that way at least I would be able to practice my cheerleading without you giving me the creeps " Alexa said to Xenon while they were taking the boxes which contained their separate belongings. " hmmph... I'll also have some peace of mind too" Xenon chipped in her usual indifferent tone.
"peace of mind? did you just say peace of mind? for goodness sake you always look as it you have peace of mind, do want some other sort of heaven sent peace of mind? .. well if it's that then well your head would just be so empty and become more weirder, maybe by that time mom and dad would be convinced to put you in a damn nursing home and you'd stop acting this way" Alexa responded quickly as she eyeballed her sister who was obviously not paying any attention to what Alexa was saying.
It was a bright Monday morning, the sun was rising from the east bathing the world with it's beautiful golden rays, the birds were chirping away softly in the garden, the morning breeze was soft on the skin.
Xenon had just woken up, she stretched her body and yawned, looking at the mirror, she observed her pale body which was sprawled on her white bed sheets, she scratched her messy hair and sighed.
Today was a very important day in her life , it was her first time schooling in the city, she felt a little bit nervous but immediately shrugged it off; " hmph" , she sighed and went into her bathroom to get ready for school.
Few minutes later, she was dressed in a black hoodie and black Nike joggers, she slipped her feet into a pair Nike kicks, she walked over to her desk to pick up her bag. Before leaving her room she took a quick glance at herself at the mirror the said " perfect" before leaving the room.
Alexa on the other hand was finishing up her make up, she looked so beautiful and elegant in the cropped hoodie and skinny jeans, she had a pair of Adidas shoes on , her designer bag hung on her left arm, she was looking so chic.
"Oh I see you are all set for your first at at school! Well I'm glad to tell you that your new school is totally exquisite, you'll be given new uniforms when you get there, I'm sure you'll also make a lot of friends there ". Xavier announced as they walked towards the car. Celine was on her way to a seminar for flower dealers worldwide and she was invited, it was a really big opportunity to partner with a lot of flower dealers; even the high and mighty ones . She had gotten ready to make breakfast and rush off in order to get there on time , but still said bye to her family before zooming off.
