is finally ready and we were moving this weekend. It was a good thing that I have some off during the week because I have been busy
the preparing the house. It was a breath of fresh air to have some space, to be away from Callan. He hasn’t spoken a word to me since our tense moment in kitchen the other night but that has unly driven me even more crazy. I had finally bought myself a pair of sweatpants and I was wearing them now as I pushed boxes around and ordered the furniture. The apartment came mostly furnished but I was making it my own.
The way the place looked was somewhat like Callan’s apartment, only without the second floor. You enter through the door, not the elevator to the large living room with a skyline view window which flooded the room with natural lights. The kitchen and dining area was in a similar location to Callan’s only a scale smaller. Our two bedrooms are opposite ends of the apartment which I kind of liked. If Bryce brings girls home, I don’t wint to know about it. My room was just off the living room and his was after the dining area.
My bedroom was painted a mushmom almost purplish gray which I liked and I brought new bedding to fit the queen size bed I have now. There were two doors, my bathroom and a walk–in closet which is perfect for all my clothes, shoes, bags and accessories. I had purchased a black light mirror for my personal bathroom which made the counter space feel more like a vanity. Everything was perfect.
loved my sweatpants with my soft haby tank and long open knit cardigan sweater. It was cozy as heck, I was casual, relaxed and alone. We were a few floors down from Callan hat he could be a million miles away if I wanted to pretend he was because I wasn’t planning on seeing him any time soon. Since the building is very secure, not just anyone can come up to our floor, I got a call from downstairs that I received a delivery which was waiting for me at the front desk. I threw some shoes on to take the elevator downstairs and I was surprised when there was a vase of beautiful flowers waiting for me. Rose and sunflower with bits of purple lavender in between, it was so beautiful that I didn’t even read the card until I got back upstairs. Something fluttered in my gut when I read the mesu
