The memories to come

chp. 13

*a week later* (May 25)

Hailey's pov:

Currently, Connor and I were walking around Ikea to pick up some new furniture since I was redoing my room at home. Once we found everything I needed at Ikea, I paid for it, before we took everything out to Connor's truck. I climbed into the passenger seat, buckling myself in. After Connor got into the truck, we drove to home depot so I could pick up a gallon of compass blue and resort white paint. After paying for the gallons of paint, I put them into the bed of the truck, before Connor drove to my parents' house.  We took everything inside, putting it into the empty room that was next to mine. Once we entered my room, I started taking down the decorations that were on the wall. Connor took the furniture I currently had in my room over to the other spare room that we had, while I took my trophies that were on the shelves off.

Finally, Connor and I were able to paint after fixing the holes and taking the wall in half horizontal. I stirred up the gallon of compass blue, before pouring a bit into the paint pan. I rolled the roller into the pan, painting the bottom half of the wall, while Connor painted the top half. 

*a day later* (May 26)

Connor and I spent the night sleeping in the living room because we had to wait for the paint to dry, before doing anything else. We went into my room, making sure the wall was dry before we went to get my new furniture out of the spare room. Connor carried the box that my bed was in into the room, setting it onto the floor, opening it up. After looking through the many beds in Ikea, I decided to get the queen-sized Malm high bed frame with two storage boxes. I took the parts out of the box, helping Connor put it together. When we finished building the bed, we lifted it up, moving it to be in front of the window. I stood on top of my mattress, handing my curtains back up. 

*2 hours later*

About two hours later, we were finally finished my room. It looked absolutely great and I was so excited. Connor soon left to go home, and I was left home alone. I soon left the house, going to Wendy's to get lunch. I ordered a taco salad and a side of fries with a tropical berry lemonade. I took the food home, sitting on the back patio since it was nice outside.
