Chapter 1
It was a sunny day in Los Angeles. Me, my brother and his girlfriend have just moved in our new house in one of the peacefull neighbourhoods, and i can't wait to go see the city. I forgot to mention that my name is Katherina, I'm 18 and I was born in Bulgaria. My parents died in a car accident when I was 5 and since then my brother has been taking care of me. He is an IT specialist and he was offered a job, here in America, and he just couldn't say no.
- Kat, take these boxes and put them inside - my brother said interrupting my thoughts
The house itself was pretty big with three floors and a big garden. When you enter the house on the left, there is a big kitchen with a counter in the middle, and on the right there is the living room with a window from the top to the bottom of the wall, a grey sofa next to it and a big tv past the room. My brother and his girlfriend are on the second floor just across the guest room, whereas I'm on the third floor which is more like an attic. To be honest i did not think that it would look that good. The room was bigger than i thought, with wooden floor and walls, there was also a window with a bench to sit on. Right next to the window there was a desk, a vanity and a king size bed in the middle of the room. There was also a dressing room near the bed and a tv on the wall. Everything was perfect - it just needed a little bit of my magic. After I unpacked the last box I couldn't wait to just take a shower and go to bed, when Elena came in my room with a glass of champagne...
- Let's drink for the new house and Alexe's job. Cheers !
Elena is from NY but her mother is bulgarian and that's why she spent most of her life in Bulgaria, where she met my brother. Most of the time we speak English but sometimes we mix both languages
- Kat, just to let you know, tonight we are invited to dinner at the Dawson's, our new neighbours. So start getting ready soon !
- Uugh ! Do I need to come to. Can't I just stay here and sleep ?
- Sorry but you can bare a dinner with the neighbours and you're also gonna meet new people which is good for you.
- Okay, okay I'll come - knowing that I wanted to stay in and watch a movie rather than a dinner with the neighbours, but I was a bit curious about them.
After I took a shower, I streightened my hair and put a little bit of mascara. Personaly I love makeup but I thought that just mascara will be fine. I quickly put a pair of blue jeans and a Metallica white t-shirt, and went downstairs.
- Don't you think you're dressed too formal ? - I asked El judjing by her tight fitting red dress, her curly hair and the makeup that she had put so thoroughly.
- Don't you think you're wearing too everyday outfit ?
- Touche ! We are just going to a dinner and I didn't feel like dressing up.
- You could have at leas put the leather skirt and the red shirt you bought, unless you want them to sit in your wardrobe and collect dust.
- Leave her alone El, she is fine like that. Now let's go because we are already late.
I thanked my brother for saving me from the upcoming war with El, and went towards the Dawson's house.
