*Cassey's POV*

BEEP ! BEEP ! BEEP ! Ergh, time to get up. Trust me to buy the worst alarm in the universe. 5:30 every morning, sometimes thats just too much for a girl to handle.I sat up, maybe a little to quick as a I became lightheaded. I shook the feeling off and walk towards the bathroom. I closed the door and turned to look at myself in the mirror. I looked terrible. I wish I was one of those people who look perfect 24/7 , I wonder how they do it ? Just a case of natural beauty, something I lack.

I stepped in the shower and let the warm water take over my body. I felt so relaxed. I washed my body and my hair. I stood for sometime, thinking about the ways of life and basically anything and everything. (As you do). I stepped out and almost slipped over. God, I hated how clumsy I was. I dried off and put on my work uniform. I worked at Starbucks. I loved just about everything there and a while ago my friend, Sophie, managed to get me a job there. I tied my hair in the usual messy bun, letting a few natural curls hang by my face. I started my journey to work.

*~*~*~*~*~*~

Once I got there, it wasn't really busy. I took my place behind the counter and was greeted with the usual "Hello" 's from my work buddies. I stood waiting for the long day ahead of me.

*~*~*~*~*~*~

On my break I did what I normally did. Phoned my mum. See, she lives all the way in Florida and I rarely see her now, only when I've got the time or money. She's been a little different since my dad passed away. She loved him so much. We both did.

*Flashback*

"Is he gonna be okay ?!"

"Mrs, I'm gonna need you to sit down. The doctors will be here any minute."

"Mum, he's gonna be fine." I tried to reassure her, although there was a feeling of doubt I had to shouve(?) to the back of my mind.

*5 minutes later*

I heard footsteps. It was the doctor !

"It's good news. He's going to be fine."

We both took a huge sigh of relief.

"You can come and see him, follow me."

We followed the doctor to a large room where my father lay. We went to walk in when we heard a loud continuous beep. NO. We were pushed out the way by many doctors rushing to my fathers bedside. PLEASE. NO.

*hours later*

Me and my mum had been sat waiting for I can't even remember how long. When eventually a doctor came out and explained what had happened. She told us that my father passed away.

I thought long and hard about the memories and how my father was. He was such a loving man. He cared for everybody. If he had just met you he would love you straight away and you would become best friends. He had that kind of personality. He also had an amazing sense of humour. He would come out with the most random,hilarious jokes.

I began thinking about my last conversation with him.

His last words to me were, "I wish I could be there to walk you down the aisle."

*End Of Flashback*

"Cassey ! CASSEY !!"

I soon flipped back to reality when my mum started shouting down the phone.

"Sorry mum ! What were you saying ?"

"Doesn't matter, I'll call you later. Bye, love you"

"Love you too, mum, bye"

I walked back from the private room and returned to my previous position behind the counter.

"Everything alright, Cassey ?" Asked Scott, he was one of my work buddies, I've known him for about 2 years now. We got on really well from the start and have been close friends since.

"Yeah, thanks. Just been speaking to my mum."

"Oh, how's she doing ? Is she alright ?"

"Yeah she's good, thanks. I think she's found a nice man, that she likes..." I didn't like the thought of mum replacing dad. And I wouldn't use the term replace. But at least she's happy.

"Well at least she's moving on"

Scott had a fair point. It had been a couple of years since dad had died. It had to happen at one point, right ?

Our conversation ended when the next customer arrived.

*~*~*~*~*~*

FINALLY, work was over. I returned home, got changed out of my uniform and went straight to bed. I'd love to say I had an eventful life, but unfortunately I don't. Tomorrow will only be the same. Just another day in the life of Cassey Goulding.
