Jimmy‘s idea to
meet before committing on a place to stay. Abby had no doubt that
they all would get along. Holly had gone home to get herself
prepared for the week ahead and to ensure all her assignments were
completed. Once Abby had written and printed the final draft of her
report for U.S. History, she started fixing up the guest room. Her
father would say that in business you needed to “assume the sale,
act as though the deal is already done,” this is what she was doing
with Jimmy’s stay. She was assuming the sale.
“ Huh…Dad’s right” she said to out loud
to herself while putting new sheets on the full size bed in the
guest room, located across the hall from hers, “That philosophy can
work in everyday life.” She even spent some time cleaning and
organizing her room. Not that anyone would agree to have him stay
in there with her, but she wanted to fix it up anyways. It wasn’t
messy, she always took pride in keeping her room clean. The powder
blue carpet was vacuumed at least every other day. She dusted the
oak dresser, computer desk and end tables once a week. The queen
size white wrought iron headboard with green ivy and pink roses
that intertwined with each other, made from the same wrought iron,
was also dusted once a week. The comforter and matching sheets were
washed every Sunday. Abby loved climbing in to a newly made bed
with freshly washed sheets. She didn’t have a lot of things on her
walls. Abby adored her wallpaper. Little pink roses and hydrangeas,
matching the powder blue in her carpet, spread across her walls. It
made Abby feel like she was inside a flower garden. Even on her
worst day she always felt better when she was in her room. When she
was 11, her mother told her that she could upgrade her room from
the current motif of brown teddy bears and white bunnies. She let
Abby pick out what she wanted on her own, reminding her, that this
will be what she has to live with while she is growing up and she
may want to choose something that won’t go out of style. Abby and
Holly combed through wallpaper sample books for weeks. With Holly’s
assistance, she had chosen the powder blue carpet, deciding that it
gave them several color options when it came to the wallpaper and
bedding. Finally, after about a month of searching and having
several patterns to choose from, they both agreed on the pink roses
and blue hydrangeas. They found the bedding and curtains in the JC
Penney catalog. It had the same colored roses and a hint of the
blue all throughout. When they were finished, Abby’s room was her
own sanctuary. It wasn’t over powering. Bright and cheery, Abby
loved it as much now as she did then.

Chapter 7
The week dragged. Abby couldn’t remember ever
having such a long week. She could barely sleep that Friday night.
Even though they had spoken to each other every day and sent at
least 50 texts back and forth she still was anxious to see him
again. When she arrived at the tiny airport, Jimmy hadn’t landed
yet. She looked at her watch, 10:25, he said he should be landing
around 10:30. Abby stood in the small waiting area. Several planes
had taken off and landed but there were still no signs of Jimmy’s
plane. He had told her he was chartering a jet from Eugene Airport,
after their concert at Oregon University. More than one tragedy was
going through her mind when the clock stuck 11:15 and there were
still no sign of him. The woman working the small counter and
confirming the incoming and outgoing flights, assured her several
times that no reports have come in, regarding any flights that have
had any serious issues and it appears the flight is just running a
bit behind schedule. This did not make Abby feel any better. What
if for some reason no one knows the plane went down, maybe they got
caught in a storm and no one knows where they are. Maybe he changed
his mind, when he called her last night he seemed fine and excited
to come but once he got on his way, what
