"Hey, welcome back" Piper said as Price entered the manor. She grabbed one of Price's bags, and glanced out the front door. She saw the truck with Massachusetts plates. Price had spent the past week driving across country to tie up loose ends in Boston. "U-Haul, huh? Do you really have that much stuff?"
"I'll probably end up getting rid of a lot of it. There's some furniture in there that just won't fit anywhere in here, and it'll cost too much to put into storage" Price said. "So, are you going to help me haul all my crap up to the attic?"
"No" Piper said. She started up the stairs with Price's bag.
"No? Um, okay......" Price said, wondering if she struck a nerve somehow. She followed Piper up the stairs.
"I have a present for you." Piper said. She led Price to Prue's old bedroom, and turned. Price joined her to find a large ribbon and a bow on the door. Piper smiled. "Happy Birthday, Open it"
Price was simply shocked. She turned the knob and found the room was totally bare. The bed had no sheets, the wallpaper had been taken down and all the furniture was cleared off. There were two cans of paint, rollers and brushes sitting on the desk.
"How did you know it was my birthday?" Price asked. She saw the slight look of pain in Piper's eyes and remembered. "Oh right, Phoebe. Twins usually have the same birthday. But still this just doesn't feel right"
"Well, I figured, if you're living here" Piper began. "You can't stay in the attic. We're always running up there, and there's absolutely no privacy. I've accepted that Prue's gone, and leaving her room the way it was just wasn't going to help any. It would have been a waste of space and a constant reminder"
"This is not the typical birthday present I'm used to" Price commented, looking around.
"Well, there's paint, and it's yours to do what you want with" Piper said Then she looked concerned. "Do you like Blue?"
"Yeah, blue's fine" Price replied. She set her bags down on the bed and approached the cans of paint. She just stared at them for a moment. Then she looked over at Piper, who was just leaning against the door watching her. "It's still so odd.....all of this"
"What do you mean?" Piper asked.
"Alicia and Rebecca were the only family I ever knew. Now I have you and Leo and we're going to get Phoebe back" Price said. "It's all so new to me"
"I keep forgetting because I'm used to having sisters," Piper said "I know how it's all supposed to be. I keep forgetting that you're flying blind"
Price smiled. "But I've got you to guide me"
Piper smiled back. "Um, actually, while we're on the subject of family, I think you need to meet our dad"
