I slowly opened my eyes after a long refreshing sleep, the sun bright fully beaming through my curtains blinding me slightly. Everything was perfect. I laid there for minutes looking around , whitewashed room roasted by a beautiful summer morning. I got up and walked over to the window pulling back the curtains dramatically as I opened the doors to get to my balcony. The summer air refreshing my lungs as the sun revived my energy. This was what I'd needed for so long , finally a new start for the better. I cheerfully made my way to my kitchen to make some coffee and a sense of pride filled me as I looked around at my success and the beautiful penthouse I owned - I did it all by myself and I was the perfect example of an independent woman. After years of hard work I had become a doctor which was what I'd always wanted. As I sat down to have some coffee I picked up my iPhone and dialled my best friend Georgio's number "Girl! How are you?!" He said in his forever excited tone (Georgio had been my best friend since I we were practically babies and we've been so close as we're both only child's so we're almost like brother and sister , I was the first person he came out to and he's the cutest person I know) "I'm fine sweetie how are you?" I replied not so excited as he is "I'm good doll, I'm good - listen we need to talk - you've missed so much here!" "Yeah hon, that's why I called - so when are you flying over to Barcelona? I've missed you loads" "Milena, be ready to greet me tomorow morning at El Prat airport at 6:40am baby!, I'm packing now and God do you know how hard it is to decide which suitcase to take- I mean the Louis Vuitton one is nice but my new Gucci one is beautiful- and then there is the glamorous Dior one , oh my god stressful times" I laughed to myself as I heard my typical bestfriend stress over this nonsense. Sometimes I think Georgio should've become a fashion designer or a model instead of an architect - that boy has so much style! "Ok Geo, I'll be there to pick you up darling" "love ya baby girl , mwahh" he said as we both hung up. I sat there blankly - making the most of my lazy day. I looked in the mirror and damn I looked good , Barcelona had changed me for the best - my skin radiantly glowed as the features were perfectly kissed by the sun and my hair had that perfect tousled beach girl look. I used to find LA really stressful where everyone just loves to please everyone else but here in Barcelona people just enjoy life and have a great time - I love it.
