Chapter #7She makes you paint it by: PrinceS  Your mom assured you that it was red- and looking at the color on the chart that came with it- it did look red. The color was called "Watermelon Red" so you were convinced. Your mom told you to paint three of the walls that color, she was going to work on the fourth wall. She had a design in mind- she always got really excited about these things.
You started painting away, climbing up and down the ladder- reaching all of the tough spots. You looked over at your mom, who had painted the bottom half of her wall, leaving the top half white, with a small stripe. She had put down the paint brush and was hammering nails into the wall. She had painted wooden letters of your name and was planning on hanging them in a semi circle on the wall.
You went back to painting, realizing that the color still looked more pink than you wanted- you hoped it would dry better.
There was a knock on the door, so your mom left to go answer it- leaving you to painting still. She returned, but not alone. There was a man carrying the other end of a large white object. You stopped and stared at him, as he did the same to you. A woman followed behind him, carrying another part of the object- who also stared at you. You were confused why there were two strangers in your house and you were sure they were confused why there was a paint-covered teen wearing just a diaper.
Your mom broke the silence, "the bed is going to go over here" she said nodding at one of the walls that you had finished. Her and the man put their part down as the lady set down what she had as well. Your mom then told you to come help, as you followed them to the door. You threw on your flip-flops and headed down to their truck.
You guys grabbed more pieces, as you listened to your mom talk to the couple- thanking them for bringing the bed over. She talked about how you had a bunk bed before but Kylie was taking that and putting them next to each other for a king sized bed, as her and Kayla's room was the biggest. Then Kyra was taking her old bed.
The girl responded that this bed was going to be perfect. They had gotten it for their daughter when she was in school but she just wanted something bigger. As you guys had brought all of the stuff in, the man started to help your mom put it together. You realized that it was more than a bed. It was a lofted bed, like Kayla had at her college dorm- with the small guard rails. Underneath, there was a three drawer dresser and a pull out desk. There was a two-step ladder, to help get up on the bed and then two different shelves. The lady said it was a Naomi Low Study Loft Bed.
The couple then talked to your mom for a while, complimenting the room and helped bring your dresser from your old room into your closet. You went back to finishing painting. Your mom continued working on the room, after the couple left. Your mom told you to go to grab your bedding. You went back to your old room and realized those people must have helped your mom. There was a different bed in your room but you saw your bedding on the floor.
You brought it back into your new room and tried to put it on your bed. It was bigger than your bed but you put it on anyway. Your mom looked over, "I thought your old bed was a twin?" she said, "must have been a full." she started to pull your bedding back off- confirming that the bed was in fact smaller. She managed to tuck your sheets, blanket, and comforter underneath your bed... letting you know that you would get different sheets eventually.
