Piper Olson practically fell out of her cab onto the Parisian street in the process of trying to unload herself and her three bags. The cabbie was no help at all (rude) and she nearly unloaded all of her clothes on the stone sidewalk. Yet she was there! Paris, France. Right about to walk into her very first living on her own abroad experience. A student housing situation wasn't exactly ideal, especially being a co-ed dorm, but with her scholarships only paying for her studies, Piper was on the hook for her living arrangements. Turns out trying to get an apartment in Paris was too rich for her blood.
Tucking one bag under her arm and hefting up the other two suitcases, Piper made her way to the beautiful historic chateau she was meant to spend the next few years in. Of course, the pictures of it made it seem a lot more... renovated that what she was seeing with her own eyes. The roof sported some storm damage and Piper spotted a cracked window or two. But really, who expected these one hundred plus year old homes to be in great shape? It probably survived a couple wars!
No one was there to open up the front doors for her and to help her drag her suitcases up the stairs. The inside of the place at least looked well kept, clean, and homey. Traditional old furniture was the main decor, but there were modern elements here and there too. Somewhere in the house was a television for sure, because Piper could hear the sounds of a Paris news station. (At least, she was pretty sure. How did newscasters all over the world seem to have that strange news announcer accent no matter what language they spoke?)
After dropping her bags more than once, Piper finally found her assigned room. The roman numeral VII - lucky door number 7. Easy! Her key did get a little stuck in the lock and she had to force it open with her shoulder, but once she was in she was...
Underwhelmed. Okay, there were two beds, two nightstands, and a desk. Piper kind of thought the rooms would come with a little more furnishing, but this was fair. Maybe she could get a part time job at a cafe and buy herself a few things? At least there was a closet to hang her clothes!
Wait... there was no bathroom in here. Where were the bathrooms?!
