"Arghhhhh!! This table is huge dad! I can't take this by myself!" I was trying to get our table out of the trailer, but it wouldn't move an inch.
"Don't worry, I'll get it later," dad replied. I sighed. Later probably meant about a few days.
"Dad, if you really want to move in quicker, you have to stop procrastinating."
"I know Iris. I know. I just.. well.. I'm just nervous. Do you like the house?"
"Of course I do, dad. It's going to be a wonderful house. I know it," I say, giving him a bear hug. "Now let's get working!"

It took us a month, but we got the job done. Our house was the best house I ever saw. It's now February 1st and I'm sooooo excited to finally explore! We arrived in the driveway of our officially new house. I stepped in the doorway.
The living room looked like it belonged to one of Donald Trumps mansions! Well, almost. Still, it was gorgeous! I've never lived in such a house. The spiral staircase stood proudly.
"Go explore Iris!" Dad whispers in my ear, his warm breath against my cheek. I run down a long hallway and open the nearest door. It flung open when I reached for the handle. Weird I thought. Inside of the door was a room that I'd never seen before. Although I've been working in this house for a month, I've never seen this room.
This room was like a mix of a bedroom and a living room. It had a bed, a closet, some dressers, and a bookshelf. It also had a fireplace on one end and two recliners. I immediately fell in love with this room. Though the sheets on the bed were old looking, and the wall needed some new wallpaper, it was livable. I ran out back to dad.
"Dad!! I think I found which room I want my bedroom in!!" I said excitedly.
"But we already packed your stuff in another room," dad said confused. I was probably more confused than him.
"Dad, you said I could pick my bedroom," I said.
"You already did. It's upstairs. Remember?" I didn't remember. I wanted that room, and that room only. I was going to do whatever it takes to get that room for myself. Why? Because it has something to it that was full of mystery. I needed to figure out what it was.
