Author's Note:

Just to make things clear, Zoey became a YouTuber at the age of 15. She became financially stable at the age of 17. She bought the house at the age of 18 since you legally can't obtain a house under your name until your of age, (at least that's what most countries say.)

And yes it is possible to become financially stable by doing YouTube. And mind you she doesn't only rely on YouTube, she's also a dance teacher which per person can already be $10-$15 per class (depends on the class and duration). So she basically makes $100 per class she teaches. Also, she has 2 YouTube channels which means double the income from YouTube. And she's also a social media influencer on Instagram which she gains money off of promotions and collaborations with big brands.

Okay, got it? So it's possible to become stable after 2 years of YouTube. If you still think it's unrealistic, then reality check it's fanfiction (nothing teal anyways, these scenarios aren't real). But it's definitely possible for all of this to happen irl as long as you work hard for it. Okay, now continue reading.

It's been a week since the funeral and I've been feeling down the past few days. I've only been able to do a few work-related things ever since the day she passed, so I was never able to clean the house properly.

It's cleaning day here in my household. I woke up early this morning to get started on cleaning, 7 am to be exact. I want to make sure I clean the house properly and make it dust-free. Living in a household with 2 people who have sinus problems, dust isn't our best companion.

"Zoey! Can you bring the rags that are in the laundry room?" Caro yells from upstairs.

"Okay!" I yell back and I go to the basement.

Caro did the laundry yesterday night and she left the rags on top of the dryer. That reminds me, that I need to wash the floor mats today since she forgot about them.

I grab the rags and bring them back upstairs. I already see Henry cleaning the mess in the living room. There were bowls, food, cans, pillows, and blankets scattered across the living room.

We had a movie night last night and we were too lazy to clean up. I wasn't in the spirit to clean the house last night.

I walk to the kitchen to start washing the dishes. I like to start with cleaning the kitchen and then working my way through the rest of the house. The kitchen is basically the place where I spend most of my time. It's either ill be cooking or eating.

"Are you gonna do the kitchen?" Caro asks as she walks past me to get some rags.

"Yeah, what are you gonna start with?" I glance at her.

"The garage. We have too many boxes that we need to get rid of." She makes a sour face as she thinks about the mess in there.

"That's true, and the ones that we don't really need but we need to keep, put them in the attic," I say as I start the water.

"Okay, I'll ask Henry to help me open the attic later. I really hope there aren't any raccoons in there!" She shivers at the thought.

I am disgusted by that. "Eww! I really don't want to deal with that."

"Same." She says.

"Okay, now go get started, we got a lot to do still."

"Yeah, bye!" She says before running off to the garage.

I glance at Henry and he seems to be doing just fine. "Henry, your gonna do this floor right?" I ask him.

"Yep, I'll do everything on this floor. You guys can do the rest. Ohh and ill also do the backyard and front yard." He says as he continues to clean.

"Okay and Henry, I'm gonna play some music. Is it okay?"

"Yeah sure, play your 2000's throwbacks playlist. I want something I could dance to." He says as he continues to clean.

"Okay," I say before grabbing my speaker.

I have this playlist on Spotify with my favourite 2000's throwback songs. The sound of my speaker connecting to my phone scares me since it just randomly pings. I start playing one of my fav songs, "Classic" by MKTO.

Henry starts singing along and dancing as he cleans. I do the same as I start to wash the dishes. I'm swaying my hips side to side as I wash. The music-making the vibes in here much better. We both yell the lyrics to the chorus as we dance.

Our house is pretty big, actually, it's very big. Too big for three people honestly. We have 3 living rooms/common areas (one on each floor), 8 bedrooms (3 on upper floor, 1 on the main floor, and 4 in basement), 5 bathrooms, 1 kitchen, large front yard and backyard, pool, home gym/dance studio, 1 recording studio, 1 office, 1 meeting room, movie theatre, and the rooftop. Our house pretty much has 4 floors. It's a mix of Spanish style and cottage style. It kinda looks like a mansion because it's very big in terms of square meters and height.

After washing dishes, I open the fridge to go clean it but then I realize there's nothing much to clean. It's pretty much empty, just a few old veggies laying around. Using a rag, I just wipe it down and throw away the old food. I make a mental note to myself to go buy groceries.

After cleaning the whole kitchen, I go around the house and start opening the windows. The dust particles in here are making my sinus all clogged and it's not good. I can barely breathe in here!

It's now time to go clean my room. My room isn't very messy when you look at it, but the dust in here and the floor isn't very clean. I grab the vacuum and a duster and start cleaning.

First I open the windows and I open the curtains. Caro washed the curtains yesterday so I don't need to worry about it. I start off by cleaning all the surfaces by taking off the stuff on them then wiping it down.

The dust is crazy! I can barely breathe through the large cloud of dust that's formed around me. After that, I vacuum the floor and make sure to get under my bed. My sheets are also just washed so I don't need to do that either.

I have a pretty large room with my own walk-in closet and bathroom. I have a double bed in here which is by the wall to the right. Besides it, I have my desk which is in front of the window. Then I have my bathroom and closet to the left. My vanity and another wardrobe beside it/in front of my bed. That leaves a big space in the middle of the room for walking around.

I then vacuum inside my closet and in my bathroom. I quickly fix up my room, moving things around to make it look cleaner.

Now I move on to the rest of the bathroom. I need to clean the mirror and the glass shower divider. As well as the toilet and sink, and my counter. This doesn't take me long since it's not very dirty. After cleaning my room, bathroom, and closet, I also vacuum the hallway upstairs.

I also make sure to dust the shelf and the paintings in there. In this hallway, it leads to my bedroom and Caro's & Henry's bedroom. And towards the end of the hall, there's a window that overlooks the neighbourhood.

Caro's room is the master bedroom aka the biggest room in the house. I didn't want that room since it's too big for me, and having a big space scares me especially at night. And yes I'm saying I'm afraid of the dark, blame it on Caro. It's her fault for being scared of the dark. They also have a bathroom and 2 separate walk-in closets. Just basically much bigger than my room.

I see Caro in the common area upstairs cleaning. Yes, we have another living room on the second floor. It's in the middle of the two hallways upstairs. In the other hallway is where the office is, the meeting room, and the last bedroom.

She's just about done. "Ohh hey, are you done cleaning your room?" She asks me as she fluffs up the pillows.

"Yeah, I just finished. Are you done moving things into the attic?"

"Yep, Henry helped me put them in there. I also cleaned all the rooms on that side." She says as she points to the other hallway. "I'm surprised that we still have a lot of room in the attic."

"Well, we don't have much to put in there anyway." I chuckle.

"Tru dat, now come on let's go clean the basement." She says as she walks downstairs.

"Okay." I follow her downstairs into the basement.

"Okay, so I'll clean all the rooms. And you can do the bathroom and the common area. Okay?"

"Yes ma'am!" I salute her. She laughs before walking off to the first of many rooms.

We have 4 guest bedrooms up here. They are all different sizes meaning some are bigger than the others. But they all have the same thing which is 1 bed (either queen or king size), 1 closet, 1 window, a vanity, and a desk. There are 2 bathrooms in the basement both with showers. There is also the gym, the movie room, and the recording studio. Yes, we have everything in this household.

The common area is what I'm gonna start with. I start by cleaning the dust off everything. We never really use this area so it's not very messy, just dust and other dirt lying around. I also vacuum and I fluff out the couch pillows. I make it look all tidy and I'm done. I'm pretty proud of how clean it looks.

Next up it the guest bathrooms, well two of the many guest bathrooms. This isn't very dirty as well since we barely use this bathroom. I just need to make everything all dust-free and shiny.

This didn't take long before I was all done. I cleaned the living space and the bathroom to perfection. It looks squeaky clean, just the way I like it.

Caro on the other hand was still in her 2nd bedroom. There are still 2 more to go. "You need help?" I say as I walk into the room she was in.

"No I'm good, you can go see what else needs to be cleaned upstairs." She says as she struggles to put on the bedsheets.

"Are you sure you don't need help?" I say as I raise an eyebrow.

"I'm sure, now go before I make you do the rest!" She shoos me away.

"Okay if you say so." I walk back upstairs chuckling.

Henry was moping the floors when I got up. "Hey don't stop there! I just moped it. Go that way!" He points for me to go the other way.

"Okay, okay, I'll go this way," I say as I walk the other way to get to the kitchen.

My kitchen is my everything! I make all of my delicious food in this very kitchen. I got a giant fridge (and by giant I really mean giant), an electric gas stove with an oven, but I also have two other ovens, we have a dishwasher, and microwave. Then we also got a giant pantry and a huge kitchen island that overlooks the living room and dining space. And then other kitchen appliances. I love this kitchen!

Anyways, I gotta list down all the stuff I need to buy. My brain isn't gonna be able to remember everything so a list would be very helpful. And mind you, we have a large list. And I mean LARGE. Yes, there are only three people living in this household, but I live with humans that eat too much for their own good. That means we buy a bunch of food that sometimes only lasts a week. Sometimes we buy 2 carts worth of food for two people and that lasts a week. Yeah, it's a problem...

I start off by doing fridge items and then pantry items. Fridge items include meats, veggies & fruits, drinks, dairy products, frozen foods, and other desserts. Pantry items include snacks, pasta, rice, cereal, canned goods, baking supplies, and other good stuff. And then of course the other stuff for a house like detergent, dishwashing soap, paper towels, toilet paper, etc. The list goes on and on.

As I'm listing down things, Caro comes in to get a glass of water. "Are you making the grocery list?" She says as she peeks over my shoulder.

"Yep, I got pretty much everything in here."

"Okay, and make sure to get some butter! Last time Henry forgot it!" She says, making sure Henry heard her.

"I was in a hurry okay!" He yells back.

"Yeah, whatever!" She says as she goes to get some water.

These two always fight over such little things, it's kinda annoying not gonna lie. Like butter, really? You gotta fight over some butter?

As I'm finishing up my list, I hear the doorbell ring. I'm about to go open it but Caro beats me to it.

"I'll get it!" Caro yells as she walks over to the door to open it.

I continue to write my list when I hear Caro gasp and ask something. "Uhm, Zoey? Can you come here real quick?!" She says frantically.

I'm thinking it was a ghost or a murder. But to my surprise, it wasn't?

Author's Note:

Ooo, who could it be? Well, actually it's already pretty obvious who it's gonna be, if you don't already know then... Keep reading I guess. It's already obvious cuz this is when we start to get into the plot.

And yes I know, the plot took so long to get into play. That's because there were a few things (more like a lot) that I wanted to happen before they moved in together. And now that those things are done, we can get into the plot.

So yeah, I hope you guys like it. And also updates are gonna be slow since my classes are starting. So good luck to me ig.

Bye for now! Chanty out!
