Ashlyn walked into the house and placed her keys on the hall table. Her parents had gifted her the house for her high school graduation.  She waited a moment and then hung up her sweater before speaking out loud<br/><br/>"hey Emiko, I'm home!"  she shouted a bit before kicking off her shoes.  She had a special surprise set up for her friend later.  She had invited a few friends over and she hoped Emiko enjoyed.<br/><br/>She made her way into the living room and plopped down on the sofa trying to remember what she needed to do to have everything ready.  That and she needed to tell Emiko of her plans.
