Short summary: Hayley and Millie come visit Olive and Caprice, and they note how Caprice has changed the look of the apartment.

“Hayley! Millie! Come in, come in!”

Olive was busy cleaning the kitchen when the knock came, so she gave Caprice a nod and let Caprice take care of things. Not like she would be unaware of what was going on in this small apartment and with Caprice’s loud cheer.

“Hi Caprice!” And it was good to hear a bright reply from Millie.

“Long time no see.” And Hayley with her usual casual quip.

“I saw you two last week!” Caprice exclaimed with a laugh.

“That’s a long time for former roommates.” Hayley said in defense, but she also laughed. Olive couldn’t help but smile at all the good cheer going around.

“Hey you two.” The kitchen was clean now, so they now joined the others in the living room area. “I dunno anything about this movie Caprice picked out, but I guess make yourselves comfortable?”

“Sounds good.” Millie sat down at one end of the couch before immediately standing back up. “Hey, wait a minute… Caprice?”

“Huh?” Caprice whipped her head so fast she almost fell off the couch.

“Are these all your…” Millie trailed off as she gestured widely at the walls.

Caprice laughed. “Guess.”

Hayley sighed. “Yep, looks like Caprice lives here alright.”

Olive rolled her eyes. It wasn’t a direct answer, but it was such a typical Hayley answer.

Millie nodded. “Yeah. This place is a lot more colorful. Although it’s not exactly all her work, is it?” Her gaze turned to Olive.

Olive shrugged. “She threatened to plaster everything with paintings of my face if I didn’t draw something myself.” They sighed. “I don’t know how I’d explain that to Mom.”

Caprice giggled as she stood up and walked over to Olive, wrapping her arms around Olive from the side. “I dunno, I think Olive should start their narcissistic arc?”

“Caprice…” Olive couldn’t help the exasperated fond smile.

Millie chuckled. “Well, it could help balance out Caprice more…”

“Hey!” Caprice turned her head to glare at Millie who responded by sticking out her tongue. “Okay, I do sometimes think I am cute but that’s life goals, so…”

As Caprice and Millie’s conversation continued, Olive couldn’t help but look over all the decorations that adorned their living room. The amateur drawings of plants next to the more polished “landscapes” (were they still landscapes if they depicted imaginary worlds?) made an odd sight, but it was also balanced evenly.

Olive smiled. She wouldn’t want it any other way.
