HUMAN WORLD
Joshua woke up, still feeling a bit dizzy. He tried to stand up and look around, back facing the main door, and he found himself in a modern luxury villa. Glass walls which made the room brighter and everything was mostly in black and white which suits Joshua, since he didn't like bright colours. There was a stairway at the centre of the building, which led to the others room. Near the middle of the living room, there were three long and large sofas, forming a U-shape. In front of them was a neither big nor small coffee table and a big screen television on the wall. He walked inside cautiously, as he was scared that he would break anything. The dining room was big enough for 10 people to have a meal together. When he reached the kitchen, there was everything, everything was prepared just like what Hoshi had said. He opened the fridge, feeling hungry. His eyes began to shine when he saw the food in the fridge, there were ice-cream, fruits, puddings, chocolates... everything he likes was there. Indeed, Hoshi knows him the best.

Suddenly, there was a sound coming from the backyard, he walked towards the backyard. His right hand was on the doorknob and his heart seemed like it was going to pop out any second. If you were to ask him whether he is scared, sure he is. Alone in a big house, with nobody, who wouldn't be afraid. When he turned the doorknob and opened the door. Something tackled him to the ground. He shouted. He slowly opened his eyes, a dog was looking at him with its round and black eyes. He sat on the ground and looked carefully at the dog, it was a Corgi puppy! He almost screamed, this is the most adorable thing he had ever seen. He patted the light brown and white fur of it, it was so soft and warm, the dog kept wagging its tail, liking the situation. Another dog came towards them, it was a Husky puppy this time, and something was in his mouth. Joshua walked towards the dog and patted his grey and white fur, the dog dropped whatever is in his mouth. Joshua picked it up and it was a letter. He opened it without thinking twice, knowing that who will be the one sending the letter.

'Hey Joshua, when you are reading this letter I assumed that you saw the two puppies at the backyard. Yup, it's me who gave you those, cute isn't it? I'm scared that you will be lonely in the house, especially it's so big, hehe. I know you will nag at me, saying that the house is too big, and you don't need it, blah blah blah... It's fine Joshua, just keep it, it's all yours. I feel bad, making you to go to the human world, knowing that the human world is so dangerous for us, plus what happened to your dad... I'm truly sorry, Joshua, but I know I can always count on you, you have never disappoint me once. This villa is a gift for you (and the puppies) to thank you for everything. Good luck, my Joshieee! Much love from your Hoshi.' Joshua smiled while reading the letter that Hoshi sent, it was heart warming.

"So, now I'm gonna name you Tom. You are called Tom from now on!" Joshua patted the Husky's head and he barked, seemed to understand it.
He turned to the Corgi and patted its head, "As for you, you are gonna be named Jerry! Jerry... hmm... it sounds good!" The Corgi barked and wagged his tailed happily.
Joshua looked around the backyard, the backyard was very pretty with all those plants and flowers. He walked around outside the house and there was a large swimming pool. His jaw dropped when he saw his villa from the outside, it was big, so much more bigger than what he had expected.

Joshua felt so tired, he wanted to sleep now, he walked inside, and lay himself on one of the couch and fell asleep soon...
