One thing was certain; Riva’s house needed an overhaul. both a remodel and redecorate, she was tired of the raggedy furniture and the peeling wallpaper in the living room. The bedroom, especially her own, was a no-fly zone and she was always ridiculously depressed sliding open the closet door - she wanted a walk-in. She’d been questioning why she wouldn’t just get in a professional, instead of pouring over design magazines and trying to do everything herself, with limited time and skill sets. It took her way too long to remember that there was in fact, a resident designer who lived in town. She’d never met Athena but, she’d heard things about her and Riva wasn’t entirely sure what to expect, especially as she dialed the number for the office, she’d found in a YELP search.
