“Well, this
is disappointing,” huffed Mum, staring at the dreadful room. The walls were
encrusted with dirt. The estate agent was driving away, while shouting “You can
move in today!” Dad rolled his eyes. Upstairs, the house was no better. The
bathroom had horrible bright green tiles, no bath, and a trickling shower. A
cracked toilet looked like it could fall apart at any second. Jerry and
Stephanie’s rooms were exactly the same size (they were very small). Henry (the
dog) whined at the depressing, ripped-up dog bed.
The next day, after a very uncomfortable night’s sleep, Mum
and Dad set about repainting the house. Jerry and Stephanie took Henry for a
walk (they were extremely bored). While Mum and Dad were taking off the
previous paint, they discovered a secret oak-panelled door. “That’s odd…”
exclaimed Dad. They tried to open the door, but it wouldn’t budge.
When Stephanie, Jerry and Henry arrived home, Mum and Dad
showed them the door. They thought it was really suspicious, and Jerry was
terrified. Stephanie sighed, grabbed the door-handle, and pushed it. It opened
with a loud click. Gasping in wonder, they looked at the magnificence of its
contents…
The door opened into an amazing room, it was a parallel
version of their own house, only much more luxurious. There were at least
twenty diamond-encrusted phones lying on the grand table. “Wow!” screamed the
children, rushing to grab a phone each. Ancient tapestries decorated the pastel
blue walls. “I call the biggest bedroom!” shouted Stephanie and Jerry,
sprinting upstairs.
All bedrooms were the
same size (the size of the other house). “I have a pink laptop,” exclaimed
Stephanie, “And it is the latest version.” The walls were wallpapered with
light pink roses. She had her own bathroom, with hot pink towels. White shelves
held all the things she most wanted: bags full of make-up, five brand-new pairs
of high heels and one million pounds worth of jewellery.
Meanwhile, in Jerry’s bedroom, posters of Star Wars
characters hung everywhere. Even his bed had a duvet cover of a Stormtrooper. Jerry
had a dark blue laptop, with a screen cover of the Star Wars sign. In his
wardrobe was a Yoda costume designed for Henry (their husky). Gazing in wonder
at the priceless Star Wars figurines, Jerry called out to his family, “This is
the best room ever!” Mum and Dad knew at that moment, they were going to make a
lot of memories there.
