Chapitre 2

Austin: I am already done my morning workout.

Austin:What happened here?

Mother:Oh wiliam, i knocked over one of the paint cans ! I knew that was going to happen

Father: Honey, i have to finish painting this staircase,potential buyers need to see it. In all its glory

Mother:That won't help, let the buyers decide what to do with it.

Austin: Mom, dad, what buyers are u talking about?

I promised i'd repair the hall, and the staircase too right after.

I have to take care of the disaster first, clean up the paint and put away the can.....

....

Austin:it looks like the paint is all gone ! It a good thing the bookcase didn't get splattered, look at all this books. There's even a complete Butlers Herald collection.

Austin : Dad, don't you worry the bookcase might collapse soon? I can put in a new one.

Dad: The bookcase work just fine for me, there isn't much room, but i can put so many things on top, and on the floor next to it.

Austin: i guess chaos and messes are just part of dad's life now.

I am sure life wilk be much better once he has a new bookcase

Austin: the old wallpaper spoils the view too.. I think it was hung before i was ever born. So the wallpaper is a must. So wallpaper is a must !lets makes this hall nice and cozy so my parents will reconsider selling the room.

Dad: you ordered a new bookcase even after we talked? I told u i was fine with the old one...

Dad :Is that beech? Nice wood.. Smells good too, the shelves are spacious... And the books look great. All right ! I can stay i guess there's no point returning it's to the store

Austin: i am glad we didn't listen to my dad, the new bookcase transformed this area, and he's happy, well done by us.

We are't done yet? Something's missing here...

Of course, i say we lay a new rug in front of the armchair, so dad's feet don't get cold during the long winter nights

The wallpaper ia great,is looks good enough for magazines

We aren't finished yet, but it definetly worth half spread

Let's wallpaper the rest of the room.

So much better,huh? Now the walls looks modern and don't feel embarassed about inviting friends over.

It time to take care of the floor.

Mother : what are u going to do with the floor. ? There'is nothing wrong with this.

Dad :If u have anything to do, you can catalog my collection of toys cars or organize my business cards alphabeticaly

Austin : Mon, Dad !can't you see humongous cracks? Walking on this parquet will put u in the hospital.

Dad: Nonsense ! The floor is absolutly fine, it'll last for handred years. Let me show u...

Mom: oh, Wiliam, are u okay?

Dad : i am fine, but the floor isn't....anymore.

Austin, Mom, Dad, don't worry, i will fix the floor, trust me. The floor will never let u down again.

Fantastic, the floor 50 years younger.

You know, the floor brings back on many memories.

Something you'd go to the kitchen and hear it squeak, almost as if it was complaining about its life

And that's the board i used to hide my treasure when i was a kind, baseball cards and superbuttler comic books

The floor turned out great, even, beautiful and most important.

Dad won't be making any more holes in it.

Dad : a rug ? Why do i need one ? I've always been fine whithout one. Austin : dad, armchairs should always have a rug next to them. That's we were laught at the Institute of modern Butlers. Take a seat and enjoy.

Dad : okey, okey, but i don"t understand what it's ll change.

Dad : Not bad, soft and cozyi think i will stay here a little longer to read the paper.Austin, can u move the lamp stand a bit closer ?

Austin : oups, looks like just dead....dad don't worry, we will fix the lighting situation.let's install wall light in the book corner.

Look at dad's corners now, cozy and bright.

Dad : hear that Austin,Mike butler bought an island. In the hebrides, that s the life.

By the way where exactly is the hebride ? .

Austin: Maybe exactly next a old hebride.

Wiliam : i'll go to look it up in the encyclopedia.

Austin : We should get a globe. He loves staying on of what's going on in the word.and a globe is more interactive to an encyclepedia.

It turns out a new hebrides are near Australia. Where made me think ylthey were off thz Florida Coast ?

That's because we didn't have a globe Austin.

So in 1848, ships named the Terror were icebound near king Wiliam's island,were is it that ?

The armchair is a dinosaur and like all dinosaur, it belongs in the history books. You want to know what we'll remplace it with. Oh i thought of a gift that would be the perfect finishing touch !

No. Don t even ask me. I'm silent at the grave. Let'll be a surprise for u too.

Dad : A rocking chair ! I'm speachless , son, i've been wanting one for so long...oh u made me so happy.

Austin : wouldn't yu agree that this whole reading area is must cozier ? Maybe you w'll reconsider selling the house now ?

Dad : what.. Are u trying to bribe me with this rocking chair ? It's that's the case. I can't accept it.

Austin : how could say something like that ? The chair is my present to u. I hoped that all the changes in the hall would change your mind.

Dad : i dont know.. I feel bad selling the house. We've lived here our whole life. And now this gergeous book corner...on the other hand, one redone part doesn't fix the whole hall. So, i'm sorry son. Thanks for the rocking chair, i'll take it whith me to our new apartement when we sell the house

Austin : Such a shame ! I really thought, i could make dad change his mind.

It not over yet, i can still get the work on mom

It's so late tonight but tomorrow let's start bright and early in her favourit spot, the lounge area !

Today just flew by. Lets go to sleep.

Three hours later...

Mother : Austin, darling.. Time to wake up.

Austin : Please just five more minutes.

Mother : No my dear, the new owner is here and its time to leave. We already have everything packed up. It's just u and your parrot left.

Austin : what are u talking about ? What owner ?

Dad : you dont remember, we sold the house yesterday

Austin : this can be hapenning !!!! Nooooo
