The Kimura Legacy Generation 1
Since it was Halloween Day and she was in an excellent mood, Tori decided it was about time she carved those pumpkins she'd gotten from the fall festival. It would definitely help to make her little shack more cheerful, at least from the outside anyway.
She didn't get quite the design she had hoped for the first one but the second one turned out great! She didn't have enough money for a pumpkin carving kit, so she'd just done it freestyle. Good thing she was at least a passing artist or who knows what they would've ended up looking like.
She put the finished results outside her house right along side her brand new bike. Her new bike was a much needed purchase. She'd be able to get where she wanted to go without having to walk or take an expensive cab. Plus, already being the athletic type it would serve as her daily workout as well.
Despite the chill in the air, winter was obviously on it's way, her garden had actually started to come along very nicely. She spent some time that night, while waiting for trick-or-treaters, tending to her garden. She couldn't wait until her produce was ready for harvest.
She couldn't believe the dedication of some of these trick-or-treaters, it was starting to snow outside and they were still out scouring the town for candy! She only got a couple of them but it was fun handing out candy anyway. They probably thought her house was too much of an eyesore to come knock on the door!
She woke up the next day to snow blanketing the ground. Good god the seasons come on fast in this town. It seems like it went from fall to full blown in winter in one day! Tori decided to build a snowman to celebrate the coming of winter and to cheer up the outside of her house a little. (Where the hell did she get the materials to build a snowman anyway?) The snow made the town look absolutely gorgeous! I wonder what the roads will be like
Tori's next job was from some precocious little brat. She apparently wasn't happy about the way her room was decorated and was miffed her parents wouldn't do anything about it. Tori was happy to oblige the little girl (as long as she got paid) and went right to work. The little girl wanted everything decorated with unicorns and rainbows ( **barf**) but what the client wanted the client got. At least she was extremely happy with the results. When it came time to pay the little girl pulled out this ginormous wad of cash and shoved it into Tori's hands and then whispered "This is just between us got it? This job is on a need to know basis and my parents definitely DON'T need to know" Tori was a little skeptical about where the little girl had actually gotten the money, but hey she was poor and the little girl had given her almost $900! She certainly wasn't going to look a gift horse in the mouth.
She rode home that night on her bike (apparently the roads weren't too bad if you could ride your bike on them) extremely excited. With the money she had saved up and the giant wad of cash she'd gotten from the little girl (she still thought that was a tad weird) she'd be able to renovate her shack and add some much needed appliances, like you know, a stove and such.
She was actually able to afford to expand her shack, add a counter and a stove, as well as afford a book shelf. Also her bathroom was in it's own separate little room now, thank god. No more nasty toilet smell when she was trying to go to sleep.
She even felt festive enough to hang up some christmas light on her shack. At least it looked a little more festive now. (of course it was still a complete and total eyesore) She went to sleep that night dreaming of new found wealth, at least relative to what she'd become accustomed to heh.

Aww the lights on her shack is SO cute! I think that rickety door needs to go though, it does not look like it's keeping the cold out at all! BRR!
ReplyDeleteKeep an eye on that little girl ... any kid who comes up with lots of money like that is probably trouble. haha.
The lights really do make her little shack cute! Nice touch with the snowman too! I also really liked her first pumpkin, lol
ReplyDeleteI just got caught up, and I am disappointed there isn't a picture of Shawn---all of the photos were missing from the other chapters---and now I'm curious what this *hot* guy Shawn looked like! :D
Lol now I feel like a dummy, I moved all of the photos to a different album so they would be separated and then didn't realize that would screw up all the photos I had already posted XD. It's fixed now ^^b
DeleteI loved the bratty little kid with wad of cash, lol.
ReplyDeleteAww the little shack looks cute :) I think she needs a new door though, I'm surprised she's not freezing inside! She must've left the stove on as heating ;)
ReplyDeleteThe shack looks cute covered in snow and with lights on it! I love the whole thing with the little girl and the wad of cash too!
ReplyDeleteAw I like how the cute little shack is coming along. Yay Tori!
