I may not be the brightest crayon in the box, but I'm just as useful as any of the others.

Chapter Eight - Redecorate
Riza pulled out some soup and made something simple for them to eat. With some water, the girls had a very short, yet healthy meal. When they finished eating, Anna rushed into the living room and began surveying everything she bought, Riza joining her shortly.
"Okay, so I got you some new outfits, that should help jazz up your wardrobe. Now with the apartment. Don't worry, everything is simple and easily removable."
Anna smiled at Riza's worried expression. She began sifting through the wall decorations and pulled out some cute brown "L" shaped wall shelves which she hung on the walls in the living room. There were only four so she ordered them accordingly. After about three hours, Anna and Riza had hung up three types of shelving, set up a papasan chair, added a couple throw blankets, four wall hangings, new curtains, a bed curtain system, and some small trinkets around the apartment.
"Not bad, not bad for about three hours of work." Anna smiled.
"I'll admit, you haven't changed much. You've still got a thing for style." Riza smiled as they walked back into the living room.
There, on the tan sofa was a black and white ying-yang throw blanket draped over the back. On the mantle of the fireplace were three empty picture frames that were in funky shapes and colors. On both sides of the fire place were two "L" shaped shelves that held a vase with colorful silk flowers on two, and a candle on the other two, one thing on each side.
"The room looks good." Riza smiled as they moved into the kitchen.
The kitchen had a vase in the middle of the small table with colorful silk flowers in it. The plate were random bright colors and they matched the colorful cups. Sitting in the window was a couple little dog figurines.
"I done good." Anna smiled as she and Riza went to go view the bathroom.
A bright pink shower curtain with yellow and orange dots hung up and the towels were replaced by pink and purple and green ones. Riza laughed when she saw the radio hanging under her shower head. She remembered when she and Anna would listen to the radio 24/7. Now, here a shower radio hung in her bathroom.
"You need color and tunes girl." Anna smiled and pulled Riza into her bedroom.
Here, a purple papasan chair, which is a large circle chair, sat next to the window with a pink and orange flower throw blanket and a white fuzzy pillow on it. The curtains were short and white but a long pink and yellow sash was draped atop the window and hung longer on one side. Riza's bed was now a light pink , orange, red and yellow stripped comforter with matching sheets and pillows. A squishy black pillow shaped like a small person sat in the middle of the bed, next to two purple fuzzy pillows. Around the bed was four curtains that hung around each corner and when pulled closed, completely concealed the bed. The curtains were a pink color that faded down into an orange with a hint of yellow design all over.
"Girl, you've really changed my apartment." Riza smiled.
"Isn't it great?"
"Well, lets just say I hope no body sees it."
"Well, I want some body to see it. Or should I say some 'man' to see it."
"Anna!"
"What, come on. I think 'Roy' would like the new you."
"Anna! It's illegal."
"Point. It was illegal for your grandfather to bring us into the office when we were younger. Especially in those mini skirts we wore for school uniforms. Come on, if he got caught..."
"Okay, you've got a point there, but still, fraternization..."
"Who's gonna tell? Isn't he the Fuhrer, as in the big boss, the high up chief? No one is gonna attempt to get 'him' in trouble. Anyway, who would they tell Everyone else is lower then him."
"good point... but..."
"No buts."
Anna then walked into the closet. Hanging in the closet door was a gold and silver beaded string curtain. Anna pushed them aside and stepped into the closet. On the left side, were the uniforms. On the right side, were all the new exotic outfits.
"Girl, when I go home, I'm gonna mail you some of my old, but sexy, shoes. I don't wear them anymore, so you can have them. But we need to buy you some sexy black boots. Your work boots just wont do."
Riza rolled her eyes as they left the closet. On her dresser was a red lava lamp that was sitting on a small table runner that matched the bed sheets. Hanging next to the dresser and the window was a wall hanging that had a picture of a sexy boy on one side, and a pink and orange swirl on the other.
"The pink side is when you have company. The boy is for when your alone." Anna winked and Riza blushed. The man looked very similar to Roy, only shirtless and barefoot.
Above the bed as a wooden mantle with four candles on it. Each a different color. One pink, two red and one white.
"Light the pink one when your feeling flirty or really happy, the white when your feeling lonely or relaxed, and the red when your feeling 'sexy'..."
"Anna!"
"What. Dream big girl...dream... 'hot'." Anna winked and pointed to the boy on the wall.
"It's 'illegal'."
"You can still dream... or at least try."
"Whatever."
So they went back into the living room. In the spare room was a wall hanging of a waterfall and a rainbow and their was a shelf over the small bed that held a small lamp for light reading. Another papasan chair, this one blue, was sitting in the corner.
"Girl, We did really good. Tomorrow, we celebrate. Tonight, we sleep. But first, let's spa. I brought with me some facial creams and sented candles. I also know of a really good radio station that plays beautifully relaxing music."
"Okay."
So the girls got ready for bed and sat in the living room listening to the radio with green cream on their faces and soft relaxing music in the background. A soft sent of lavender and sage was drifting throughout the apartment.
