Mona woke up and looked at her phone.
21st January
Friday
2:40am
She scrolled through her social media feed for a half hour and played a game on her phone for 2 and a half hours, after which she got out of bed, took a bath, brushed her teeth, had her breakfast and got ready for college.
"Someone's early." A voice came from behind her while she walked to college.
She turned to find Alexandra, her best friend since primary school walking up to her.
"Morning, Alex." She greeted as she walked by her side.
"Morning. So what's the occa- whoa you look really tired." She said.
"I tried to wake up at 6:40 but woke up a 4 hours early."
"When do you go to sleep usually?" Alex asked.
"Around 11:30pm." Mona said.
"You could just go back to sleep after waking up very early." Alex said.
"You know I can't go back to sleep once I wake up." Mona said.
"Okay but try to get a nap during the lunch break or something." Alex said.
They reached college an hour before the bell rang. Since they had time they decided to just chat about the show they watched.
"Today is the series finale. It's finally coming to a close after 7 seasons." Alex said.
"The Extraordinarian written by Eila Falak, right?" Mona said yawning.
"Yup. She said that the series was based on her sisters and their friends. It's finally coming to an end."
"She announced a sequel to that series yesterday."
"That would be based on her "The Storm After The Storm" book. It's like a continuation to the main storyline."
"I'm looking forward to it since TSATS is a fun read."
The bell rang and the teacher entered. The first period was Digital and Analogue Electronics.
After that was Maths, after which there was a 10 minute break.
"You want to walk around?" Alex asked.
"No. I'll just stay here. I want to finish this book today." Mona said
"Alright then." Alex said. "I'll go walk around. My legs are getting stiff."
10 minutes were long enough for Mona to look through the chapters.
<There were many symbols.
1st, the globe was cut diagonally.
The zigzag was the 2nd symbol.
There was symbol which looked like a wave with a line on the 5th floor.
A huge circle with an i on it.
>
The bell rang startling Mona. She closed her book and put it in her bag. The class now was Data Science. After that was System Programing followed by a 45 minute break.
"What did you bring today?" Alex asked pulling her lunch box out of her bag.
"Sandwiches, you can have them." Mona said putting her head down on her table.
"You should eat your lunch. You are a growing lady afterall." Alex said in a maternal voice.
"Okay mom." Mona said sitting up.
After having lunch, Mona fell asleep. During which she had a dream or was a vision?
In that she saw "12:$!" flashing infront of her.
"The dollar symbol, or I should say, the wave with a line in it, is 5." Mona said looking at the flashing symbol.
The symbol turned green.
"All I need to do now is wait."
Just then she was woken up by Alex.
The lunch break was over and they had a 3 hour electronics lab. Mona couldn't pay attention to what was being taught at all. During the 10 minute break that the teacher gave them, Alex brought her some coffee to keep her awake for a while.
After the lab was over, Alex and Mona walked back.
"Man that was exausting. You had it more harder than me." Alex said.
"I know." Mona said yawning.
"Get a nap once you reach home."
"I plan to. But I'll have to complete my home work before that."
"You are very diligent, my dear."
They kept talking until Mona's house came and they said their goodbyes.
"Welcome back Mona. You look tired. Rough day?" Mona's mother asked.
"I'll be fine after a nap." Mona said going to her room.
Mona spent the rest of the day completing her homework and taking a nap. After dinner she went to her room and turned her laptop on. She then waited for a half hour and finally the episode came. She watched it while lying in her bed.
Once the episode came to an end, she fell asleep.
