The bus came and she got on giving the money to the machine next to the bus driver. She took a few steps and sat on the bench the bus jerked forward and was making some horrible sounds as it moved. Not to look out of place Miso watched the other passengers for the time she should worry. She was in a dress and sneakers holding the umbrella and three bags. NASA gave the time to arrival and where she was on a transparent map in her peripheral vision. With NASA Miso felt safe. It would always be there for her. A few stops and then it would be her turn. She felt the bumps and jostling of the bus as she rode. The passengers all seemed to accept it. The sky was blue and bright. She couldn't wait to see her ancient home in Tokyo. The bus stopped and NASA flashed the signal for her to leave. She stood up and got off the bus.

She walked through the gate that was open and looked at the structure. It was mostly wood and some stone like exterior. The sign in the yard read for sale. She kicked it over. When she approached the door it didn't open. There was no interface panel. No electronic eye. No Holographic butler. Just a door. Setting the bags and umbrella down she examined the door. It was a metal compost hollow and worked on a hing instead of a magnetic rail. the thing that seemed to h=old it shut was a round metal handle and a second metal disk above it. She pressed her thumb to the disk. Nothing happened. She touched the knob with just the tips of her fingers which also did nothing. she put her hand over the metal disk and sent NASA to investigate this. Maybe it just needed power. NASA sent back the image it was a mechanical device. The three dimensional image showed the device was to simply push and pull a meta bar into the doors outer frame. "Wow..." That is all they used to secure their belongings. She had the nanites turn into a key and in turn open the lock. The door still didn't open so after getting more information she discovered the metal knob was a simple device that required some turning to operate. These were primitive people.  

she walked in and shut the door behind her. If the technology in constructing the door was any indication Msio suspected the rest of the house would be just as lacking in technology. She was right. Why did this building have so many rooms? what was the white bowl for in the floor? She went into every room they were empty. All of them empty. There was nothing in it. Miso laughed. "At least that is one thing that stayed the same." The future girl sat in the largest room spread out her bags and sat staring at the videos NASA was playing. 

They were from signals in the area. She had discovered wireless routers and hacked into them. Putting the five screens on the wall she sat and watched everything. topic of most discussions was no different then the future. It was all about romance. Most of them very detailed. They even had images and videos. She wanted to watch them but Miso was getting hungry. She focused on five different topics of research and had NASA help. They were money, home furnishing, food delivery options, computer technology, and home ownership. She spent over three hours and in that time upped her bank limit. She discovered just how many specialty service providers there were. Normally in her time when you got a place it was a single unit and all the utilities became active as you registered with the security A.I. not here here you had to contact several different web locations and tell them to reconnect the utilities all in advance. This was astonishingly inefficient. How people got anything done in this age was shocking. She ordered food, tools, cooking pot, a few knives, forks, and spoons, something called a fridge, several monitors, a bed, electronics , a bike to get around, washer, dryer, a hair dryer, some hair products, a lot of sun screen, and the utilities to turn on. She paid for the the fastest delivery option. There was a numerical sequence needed for all of this. Miso searched the data base for an unused number and handed it over to NASA. She wrote in some lines of code to have NASA always scramble her location and to never accept incoming communication until told to. The address linked to the number was to be unknown in all searches. Just a name. Miso M. All records of purchases in vendor data bases was set to self erase after a few months. In a hour their was a knock at the door. 

 It was three delivery guys. Each with food. A take out place for authentic local food. Vegetables and canned vegetables with soup cans and packages of dried noodles. A thing called a pizza as seen in the video. Lots of people were either talking about it and eating it. She wanted to try it. After getting everything in and noticing a few looks Miso shut the door and locked it. She sat on the floor first eating the noodles and the steamed vegetables with the chopsticks after getting a tutorial video on how to use them. while eating that, she tried a slice of pizza. It was mostly organic and smelled good. She bit into it and loved it! It was the best thing she had ever tasted. She ate and put the rest in the cabinet. She fell asleep on the floor.

In the morning it was just as bright as it had been before. She sat up and watched more videos on the local customs and current events around her. It was amazing! She had to be a part of it! Sh got an alert from her number the deliveries were on the way. "Damn" She had to stay. She looked up home information. The area she was in was a living room. She discovered what each room was named and what the white bowl was for. "Gross."The fact that it traveled into a pipe and through the city was so dangerous. Why didn't the city just pick it up and use it? She went to the cabinet to get some food but there were these things on it crawling through it. They were roaches from what the internet showed. They came after food when it wasn't properly put away. Miso rolled her eyes. "More shopping. How do people in this time get any work done?" She ordered containers and found out people liked to eat food on a serving dish. She chose to skip that. Just out of curiosity she totaled up her current spending. The total came to 72,860,497 yen.
