The Gray house has a few old world décor but it also had a few in this century items. The hall ways seemed to go on and on the entrance is vast it seems to the enterer has to make a choice to go up the elegant stare case or go to the left or right in which upon exploring left eventually led to the kitchens and rooms I couldn’t begin to name on the right was a ball room few rooms that look like offices and I think some guest rooms and a room that looked like a ‘common room’ and another that looked like a modern day living room. Put I only went straight in those hallways.
Don’t let me get started on up stares it looked like a caravel maze that meets the different “ages” of our history wizard and muggle.

One door was called it was called The Hall of Mirrors and Hourglasses I thought it strange. I had just put my hand on the door knob when I heard.

“How are you liking the place?” Neferet asked making me jump. “Sorry I didn’t mean to scare you.”

“It’s something to be explored more.” I replied still looking at the door.

Neferet kept walking and stopped just beside me she shook her head. “Father will kill me if I’d let you in here. Mom and dad err I mean your grandparents haven’t gone over the rules with you there some places you and Sora can’t go in.”

“Yous do know that when you tell someone as young as me not to go somewhere most likely they will.”

She laughed sound a bit like how mom laugh no doubt they are sisters. “Oh you are part O’Mille if you were criouse for your own good.” She smiled down at me, “Come on everyone is in the dining room for dinner.”

I nodded and followed her.

Christmas

Christmas was in a room simply called the Living room. With a tree and lots of presents under the tree, everyone had hot coco and we went by youngest to oldest opening presents. Which was Sora first and last grandma and pa. I got more books to read, note books to write in one note book magical from grand ma and pa only I could open it and see what I written. I got punch of toys for my kitty and parrot. I got a boyish looking necklace from my uncle Colton.

“It will help you keep control you’re element your parents have been writing to me about since your father’s mother died you’ve been little off kilter.”

“Umm thanks.” And I meant it. Even if it was something like that it was cool. It was a Celtic symbol.

“It’s our family crest.” Grandpa said.

“Thank you.” I said again.

Sora got a more girly one with a small diamond in the middle it was magical because when you looked close enough you though you could see the wind.

Anyway I also got cloths, a new watch (magical and Moka and Naoki broke it that’s a long story) I got a bunch of things that were fun and meaningful.

Much later after two hot coco’s and dressed we all were in the game room playing games most of them were getting to know each other I think it was for Sora and I benefit. Though we did get to play a good game of poker and I won.

The cook Noah Oliver out did himself with over load of food and even some form back home which was decent for a non Japanese cook but the other foods were better and by the time we finished eating and 7 world desserts and I was in a comma of food overload, the alarms are going off in warning. We were all back in the living room in time for stories read by Neferet’s partner Gail she is a good and we all lost track.

A New Year’s Party

Sora and I were to dress in Victorian clothing that Grand ma picked out and the whole party was punch of rich and pure bloods mostly grownups who wanted to have fun with a Jane Austen Party. Nothing really happing and it was completely boring. No one our age came to the party there was a lot of drinking and lot of older/old people getting drunk. We weren’t allowed out of the ball room and when someone asked you to dance you were supposed to dance with them. The dances were from that period of time too which was somewhat fun but Sora and I would have had more fun with someone our age around.

3…2…1… HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone yelled we weren’t home free yet because we all ate again as we wished each other a Happy New Year. Surprisingly I was hungry and afterword we all played a short game of charades. It wasn’t short because once everyone had one turn they wanted to go again and that’s when Sora and I snuck off to bed.
