Chapter 10 Interior

"Throw away all of this?" I ask. 
"Yes. All of it. I don't like this old looking furniture."
"All this furniture can still be use, Mom. All of them are still in good conditions. It's not good to waste."
I feel that there was no need to throw away all this furniture. Although it looks shabby, it can still be use. There's no need to waste all of this. When in school, teacher alwasy said that we need to recycles items. It's good for environment. 
"Are you insane? This is unacceptable. We living in this house that is big, but we need the furnitures and decorations that looking so poor and bad. There's no use to have this big house. Please try to have common sense, Aidan." Said mom.
"Yes, that's right, Aidan. It is not appropriate for us to use this furniture again. It's okay, we can just donate this furniture to other people." Intan added. What she's said there's not wrong either.
"That's right. Let me check which one that still can be use. For those one we don't one, you can make a new one, Aidan. You can create the beautiful and better one that we have.”
Mom's grinning on her face. She's and Intan then walk into each furniture and makes decisions which one can be keep, and which one can throw away.
I am still petrified by their side. I don't want to waste of all this. I look at my brush, and have a thought am I still need to do this. But by seeing how happy my mom is, I can't help to obey her. She's seeing happier than ever. I've never seen she's happy like this. 
"Hmm fine, Mom."
I have to agree on them. No matter what this is for our being. After all, this is my home too.
"Okay, Aidan. We've finished checking all the furniture that we want to keep. Now you can start to create the new one." Said Intan.
I look up surroundings. There's nothing much that has been selected to keep. Mostly all of them, has been selected to throw. I sighs.
"I want you to make all the furniture that can fill up the empty spaces. I meant every spaces, including room and every toilet." 
"Just a moment!” Mom added.
She then walk quickly towards the kitchen. A few minutes later, she's reappear from the direction of the kitchen with three magazines in her hand. 
"Well, Aidan. Take a look all the picture in this magazines. Whichever you think is beautiful, you draw. But the important things I want a cabinet and island for me to cook."
Mom grinned. She's really happy that all of her wishes now been achieved. She's even inhaling the smells of new house.
Dad also looks happy. He walked back and forth around the house smiling a knotted smile. 
Arifi and Intan had already gone upstairs. Maybe to find a room that suitable for them. I will pick any room that still empty later. 
I flipping through the magazines that my mom's had given me a while ago. A lot of styles and design can be find there. I'm confuse which styles should I pick. I want to ask for their opinion, but seems like everyone else doesn't take interest to help me. They just waiting for the outcomes.
I stops flipping for a moment and closed the magazine again. I take a deep breath while looking at the interior of the house.
Hmmmmmm….I let out a long sigh.
"What am I really doing? This is not right."
I monologues to myself. I'm is not sure what path that I have chosen.
According to the law of nature, in fact I have rejected the law. This is beyond the law. Everything is impossible without this magic brush.
But at the insistence of my family, I had to obey. 
I open back the magazine in my hand and browsing through it. I walk around the house, try to imagine how the interior will be. 
I imagin there will be a few sofas in the house, a few frames, decorations that can be fill in the living room. I choose the modern styles that suits with the exterior. 
I look at my old television which only sizes of 24 inches. Of course my parents will complain if I keeping using this size. I decided to create a new television bigger sizes that fill up the entire living room.
I then walk at the kitchen, I browsing at the magazines and to make it simple, I copy exactly whatever have in the magazines.
My body sweating a lot to finish creating all this furniture. It's really consumes a lot of my energy. All of this need a meticulous and details works.
Almost a day, I finished to furnish all the house with my creation. I am happy to the outcome and results. Now it's look like the house that always shows in television and magazines. 
I smile happily. I'm going down to the living room to tell the news to my parents. But as soon as arrive, there was no one there.
"Maybe they all in their room." My heart hissed. 
Then I'm climbing the stairs to go to their room. This is a first time that I ever living in a house with a stairs. Before this my house is only a one-stairy house. It's kind of akward when need to climb a stairs in my house.
My parents' chose a room that's on the third floor, so there were a lot of stairs I nedd to climb. 
As soon I arriving in front of my parents' room, I knocks and slowly turned the doorknob. I've take a peek inside to watch whether they in there. 
But it's no one there. There's only furnitures and decorations that created by me earlier. I try to look for them at their toilet or balcony, but still nobody there. 
I walk out of the room and goind down one floor to check on Intan and Arifi rooms. Maybe they all gather there.
But there's no single sound there. Seems like there's nobody there too. I've checked both of the rooms and it's true. No single souls in there.
"Where did they all go?"
