Ellinor followed Patricia into a huge room that was airy and bright with some very chic decor, a clear display of unique artistic taste.
Everything in the room looked super fancy; it was by far the most beautiful and comfy room she had seen.
Ellinor speculated in her mind and turned to ask Patricia, "So, who in your family owns this room?"
Patricia still had a smile on her face, but there was a hint of disdain in her eyes. "This room used to belong to a woman who didn't play by the feminine rules. Everyone thinks the place where she lived is bad luck, so the room has been empty."
After listening to what Patricia said, Ellinor became more certain of her guess.
This room used to be her mom's. Her mom was an amateur painter; she was good at art, and the room was clearly decorated in her unique style.
Ellinor looked at Patricia, "This room is in the center, so it gets a lot of sunlight. It's probably the best master bedroom in your house, even better located than your parents'. I guess nobody would be allowed to stay in such a master bedroom unless they were pretty important in your family, right?"
Patricia seemed a bit ticked off by Ellinor's blunt words, and her tone became quite unfriendly.
"Ellinor, it's none of your business. I just brought you here because I thought you'd appreciate the decor. Just take a look, and that's it. Now, I'm taking you to another room, which is even more beautiful!"
Ellinor took one last deep look at the room her mom once lived in, feeling a little sentimental. The room was very uniquely decorated, with a few abstract paintings on the wall, very much in line with her mom's painting style.
But there was not a single photo in the room. Probably because someone didn't want to see them, so they were all put away.
Next, Ellinor was led by Patricia to a pink children's room. Everything in the children's room was super adorable.
