ChibiMercury Usagi's Twin Part 14 "Did Darien say how much for 1 year of college would cost?" "Yeah, but what's that got to do with us not having a home." whined Usagi. "Simple, meatball head, we put half the money into the accounts and use approximately 1/3 to 1/2 of the rest to rebuild you home." "Good plan" Back with the Usagi's "I've come up with a way to rebuild without it costing a lot." said Amanda. "How?" "Simple, I'll use a portion of my money to aid in rebuilding and this time, everyone will be involved in the design. Remember, try to keep it simple. Ok" "OK" "Let's start by going over the original floor plan and then extend it from there." said Kenji. "How about if I write down some suggestions and then take Usagi and Chibi-Usa to Ami's to study?" asked Amanda. "Alright" "Shingo, do you want to head over to Mika's?" "Sure" At Ami's "Do you mind if we came over, given the situation?" asked Usagi. "Not at all" "Maybe we should get everyone else here, for an impromptu study session. We haven't had one since Nov. (its early Dec. now)." suggested Amanda. "Are you sure?" asked Ami. "I've never been more sure in my life. Besides high school entrance exams are in 4 months." Said Amanda. "I know Luna's going to have a fit, but how about calling everyone on the communicators." suggested Usagi. "OK" 20 minutes later "Let's get to work." said Rei. "I'll make us a snack." offered Makoto. "Can I help?" asked Chibi-Usa. "Why not, come on Chibi-Usa." The phone rings "Not again!" whine Amanda and Usagi. "Amanda, its for you." said Ami. "Thanks. Hello." 5 minutes later "Uh-huh, uh-huh, OK, fine, thanks." "What did they want?" asked Usagi. "Your parents just got the plans approved and a local construction company has offered to build the house, while using the best materials and not charging a lot. I also told them of one of my fathers' business associates in the furniture industry." Why do we need to know someone in the furniture industry?" asked Usagi. (If you want to know, that was a very stupid question for a teenager to ask) "Rei, sometimes I wonder if Usagi can get even more ditzer than usual." commented Amanda. "To furnish the house when its completed, you meat-ball head." exclaimed Rei. "That's great news." added Makoto.
