FREE FALLING

CHAPTER NINE
- H a n n a h ' s  P o i n t  o f  V i e w -

 Sunlight poured through the windows, waking me up immediately as it pierced my half-closed eyes. I cursed myself for forgetting to close my blinds before I went to bed, then remembered that I didn’t have any curtains on the windows yet. I glanced around my room: the white walls made me feel trapped, almost like I was in an insane asylum. Everything was so plain that it made me want to escape the room as fast as I could.
Pulling on a pair of decent jean shorts and a flowy, light grey top, I emerged from my room. I knocked on Holly’s bedroom door as I passed, knowing she would be angry at me for waking her up, before I stumbled down the long, carpeted staircase and finally touched my feet to the sun baked wooden floor of the kitchen.
Pulling out a box of Frosted Flakes, almost the only thing in our bare cupboards, I poured myself a bowl of cereal. “HANNAH!” Holly groaned, stomping her feet down the carpeted hallway at the top of the stairs. I could sense her irritated tone from thirty feet away.
“what time is it?” she asked sweetly, like the bipolar girl she was.
“11:24” I responded, reading the numbers off of my phone, “and I got a text from Logan,” I told her, opening the message. Logan had given me his number last night before he left, telling me he would text me tomorrow if the group decided to hang out. “hey, we’re hanging out today but we don’t know what to do. If you have any suggestions text me.” I read out loud, hollering up the stairs in hopes that Holly could hear me.
“okay sweet. Any suggestions?” I practically jumped when I heard her voice next to me, hadn’t she been at the top of the stairs just a second ago?
“not really. But I’m sure someone will think of something. Anyway, we seriously need to do a paint job here. My white walls are killing me,” I told her honestly, opening the door to the basement and flicking on the light. I walked down the stairs that lead me to a huge, tile covered room. The only things I could see were a tv, couch, and several other doors leading into undiscovered territory.
“do you know if we’ll have any paint cans down here?” I asked Holly, who had followed me into the basement, opening a door and hoping to find a supply room but instead finding a guest bedroom. That makes five unused bedrooms, two spoiled teenage girls, and about a million dollars down the drain, I thought to myself, still not used to the rich lifestyle we were now living.
“well there’s gotta be some somewhere. I mean, this house has everything.” Holly awed, walking into a personal fitness center, complete with treadmills, weights, ellypticals, and some other machines that I couldn’t figure out. I opened another door, a workshop of some kind, and dug around a bit before finding a closet filled to the brim with mostly unopened paint cans.
“I guess mom and dad bought a lot more paint than the painters needed,” I called to Holly, who was still inspecting the fitness room, and she came to see what I was talking about. I pulled out dark pink, sea foam green, sky blue, and light purple paint cans, ignoring the few leftover beige and white cans that the painters had obviously preferred.
“shall we?” I raised my eyebrows at Holly, who seemed excited with the aspect of painting our rooms. She had always been the artsy type, though she would never admit it.
“sure, but I think we’ll need some help,” she suggested, offering up the first good idea she had given me in a while. I pulled my phone out of my back pocket, setting up a new message.
Hey Logan, I think I have a pretty good idea for something to do today. Tell everyone to meet at my house in an hour.
