THE CLOCK rung 5 o clock, legs sliding out of the bed as the cold air gave her her goosebumps. School, it was her first day back to school since last school year and 2 months of the new one. For the past weeks & weeks she's been doing online school since rehab, but now the time has came, she was ready to go back to school.

Her floor boards creaked as she entered her bathroom, rubbing a dry hand over her eyes rubbing them in circular motions, turning on the cold water.

The lights flickered as she rinsed her face with water, bending down to open her cabinet grabbing her facial care basket. Ripping open her lip mask and eye bag mask, playing it gently onto her skin.

Leaving everything on her counter not caring, grabbing her gua shau pressing it hardly against her jaw, motioning it up as her skin began to turn red from the harsh movements.

Valentine obsessed over the fact that she had to look good for coming back to school, her reputation was already bad enough from rehab. So she refused to enter the suffocating building looking a mess.

Throwing the gua shau in the sink, slippers slapping against the floor as she entered her room, the moon still out as she grabbed the corners of her sheets raising them upward. Making her bed up sloppily.

Scratching her scalp through her bonnet, sitting down in front of her vanity pressing the light straining her eyes. Letting out a wet cough, opening up her drawer putting on the Korean moisturizer. Using the tips of her fingers rubbing it into her skin.

Sliding off the eye masks and lip one, using one last drop of the moisturizer using it under her eyelids. Her sisters alarm rang through the thin walls, the house slowly beginning to wake up after her.

coughing once again grabbing her concealer stick rubbing it on the middle of her forehead, upwards on her cheek, and on her chin.

"Val," her sister grumbled opening up her door slowly, peaking through the room rubbing her eyes lightly.

"yes?" She responded back, rubbing her fingers over her contour stick. Pressing dots around her hairline, jaw, & cheeks. Blending it all together with her brown sponge, watching her sister with the reflection of her mirror sit on her bed.

"Do you have that uhm...elephant whatever tan stick?"

"Oh my gosh, Jasmine I swore I gave it to you," she groaned, unrolling her concealer placing it in triangles on the under of her eyes and inner, making straight lines on the side of her nose.

"oh my gosh you're so stupid, I just remembered  you gave it to Lexi? Why would you even give it to her isn't her sister like a beauty guru?" attitude was laced in her tone, Valentine rolling her eyes as she blended in everything with her brush.

"How is that stupid...like what?" She mumbled back, grabbing her rare beauty blush pressing it upwards on her cheekbones blending it in. Ignoring Jasmine as she dug through her makeup, grabbing the James Charles pallet without permission.

"Close the door behind you!" She called out to her sister.

she didn't close the door.

Grabbing her setting power rubbing it onto both sides of her nose rubbing it upwards, powder falling down onto her pajama shirt and vanity. Setting it down without closing it, grabbing her eyebrow definer brushing it upwards, then coloring in between some of her lighter hairs.

Scratching her head once again digging into her drawer grabbing her lip liner coloring it lightly on her Cupid's bow, then lower lip. Raising up the pencil in between her fingers drawing lightly in between some of the creases of her lip.
