Thao motioned for Tiffany and Blythe to follow her up the stairs as she showed them their room, which was situated on the topmost floor of the house. As they entered their room, what came rolling into view was a comfortable, modernly furnished room with a double bed, wardrobe and mirrors. The color of the little rug on the floor perfectly matched the color of the curtains. The walls of the room was painted in an elegantly light blue color that gave the air of being at the beach. Tiffany leapt onto the bed the moment she perceived it.
"I’ll let you unpack your things and get prepared for bed," said Thao. "If you need anything, I’ll be downstairs."
"This room is lovely, Thao," answered Blythe, glancing around the room. "Thanks so much for your hospitality, it’s great….." As Blythe turned around, she perceived that Thao has already left the room, without saying goodbye.
"Looks like you've got yourself a love rival, Tiffany," said Blythe.
"Who gives a damn about that crazy Cow?" responded Tiffany. "I'm certain ma Jeffie would choose me over her any day!"
After Thao showed the girls their room, it was the boys' turn. The boys' room was less cozily furnished compared to that of the girls, but was still sufficiently comfortable. There were two single beds in the room and an empty shelf in the corner.
"Thanks, Thao! This room is awesome!" said Jeffrey.
"I'm glad you like it, Jeffie. My room's just next door if you need anything," replied Thao as she winked at Jeffrey and left the room.
"Whoa! Did she just hit on me?" said Jeffrey.
"Hmmm, what?" answered Shaun, who was not listening at all, but instead was examining the walls of the room after he sensed something odd.
After a long haul flight, the group of friends were all exhausted and decided to go to bed early. That night, both Shaun and Jeffrey were having strange dreams of bombings and war scenes.
