Later, dad came home, and we rushed to the mall. I told him that it was a life, or death due to boredom situation. So we started shopping immediately, and I soon forgot about my boredom. And for the first time, my dad and I, were having fun together.
*****Meanwhile*****
I stood there, pondering how we could tell Jess that she was our neighbor, since she obviously didn't know. Her letter spoke it all. Then it came to me. I rushed over to Ike and Zac who were busy playing Crash Bandikoot, and I told them my plan. Then, plan Jessica commensed.
*****Later*****
We came home from the mall with armloads of bags full of stuff. Mostly Hanson stuff. I was surprised that this town was so in love with Hanson! And I got some inflateable furniture, and some CD's. I got the new Hanson video too, The Road To Albertane.
It took us two trips to get all of my stuff into the house. I told my dad that I would get it up to my room. So I got a rusted little red wagon that was left in the backyard by the previous owners , and tied it to Gus. Then I loaded the stuff on the wagon, and Gus and I pulled up the stairs and to my room. Gus didn't even tilt the wagon! And that was a definate first. I opened the door and Gus pulled the wagon inside my room. My walked over to his bed and waited for me to unhook the rope. So I did and he layed down on his bed and went to sleep. I unloaded the wagon and took it back outside.
Then I ran back up to my room and unpacked my bags. After I was finished, I was satisfied now that the room didn't look sobig. The inflateable couch, ottoman, and chair took up a lot of room in one of the cornors of the room that was empty. Now there was a little less space, but the room was still big. But I didn't mind the rest of the space. Then I plopped down on my bed and closed my eyes. I moved my hand up towards the pillow, and I felt something soft. I opened my eyes and sat up to look at what I had touched. It was a single red rose with a letter attached to it. It said my name on the cover in nice, cursive writing. I was surprised to find this on my pillow. So I took the rose in my hand and I untied the gold ribbon that was holding the letter to it. I opened the letter and took out a piece of paper. I unfolded it and when I did, something fell into my lap. I looked at it, it was a picture. The one I had taken at the Hollywood Bowl, and had just sent the guys a little while ago. It was a picture of all five of us with our arms around each other, smiling. Then I looked at the peice of paper, it said,
Welcome to Tulsa Jess! Why don't you come and visit us sometime! We're only a minute away!
Love always,
Taylor, Isaac, and Zac Hanson.
