secrets beneath the surface : A tale of mystery and power

{Mia}

As I entered the house ,I noticed that it's fully furnished, I couldn't help but give my parents a weird look, wondering whose house we were staying at and why they wouldn't just tell me the truth.

I was wondering if we were at my grandparents house since I knew that they had moved .

So I turned to my mom and asked her :" mom, are you guys pranking me, are we actually staying with grandma and grandpa ?"

My mom turned to me smiling widely and said :"No sweetheart, this is our new home "

I knew my parents always tried their best not to be a burden to anyone, so I kept quiet. But a few seconds later, a thought struck me, and I felt the blood drain from my face.

I was determined to find out how they could afford all of this. We were by no means poor, but I knew we could never afford a place like this, with furniture like this.

So after my parents showed us around and we got the feel of the place ,I got to work . Luckily my sister and I had separate rooms , although they were connected they had a door to separate them from each other .

So I got my computer from my bag (which I usually use to investigate anyone suspicious in my life )and got to work .

I typed frantically for almost two hours until I was satisfied with the results. Then, I pulled out my gear from a secret compartment in my bag, carefully designed to evade airport security scanners.

I pulled them out and continued programing until I was done.

Later, I set up everything in my room, my heart racing with anticipation. Once I finished, I connected it all over the house, ensuring I had access to every corner. Whatever my parents were hiding, I was determined to uncover it.
