Paradise Is Here

Laundromat (Elizabeth Olsen IV)

☀︎

The door knob to the shared apartment jingled when Sammy inserted the key, as soon as she got inside the woman took a deep breath and released it heavily. It felt like she could finally breathe properly again. Before she could step any further, she removed her work shoes to not dirty the carpet.

Instantly feeling hot with the summer air seeping through the open windows, she went inside her room, dropped her bag on a chair and grabbed a pair of shorts and a large basketball shirt that was a hand-me-down from her cousin.

After taking a cold shower because there was no way in hell was she going to take a hot shower in a hundred degrees weather. Sammy felt relaxed and clean, and when she was fully dressed, the woman took a big sniff of the shirt as it has become one of her habits, being able to smell the floral softener she always uses.

Her phone lit up after receiving a notification. Sammy reached for it and smiled when she saw the ID name.

Hey! How's your day?

After finishing her laundry last Sunday, Elizabeth made sure to remember to ask Sammy for her number and ever since then, she made it her mission to always check up on the young woman. Sammy, of course, the classic choice of naming Elizabeth her Marvel character, and Elizabeth picked a name that she thought would be suitable for Sammy.

🌼 Sammy The Sunny 🌼:
Same old thing, though there was a huge drama at work 😏

🌹 Wanda Maximoff 🌹:
I'm listening~

🌼 Sammy The Sunny 🌼:
One of my coworkers exploded at a lady who was being mean, then quits afterwards. Everyone was left stunned!🤣

🌹 Wanda Maximoff 🌹:
So...a Karen? Not gonna lie, I would've done the same.

🌼 Sammy The Sunny 🌼:
Me too, but since I have bills to pay and I haven't found a better job offer yet...Sammy The Sunny gotta stay sunny🥹

🌹 Wanda Maximoff 🌹:
Hahaha! Great use of the name I gave you!

"I'm home!" Sammy heard the voice of her roommate, she quickly finished up in the bathroom and gathered all her belongings, then quickly texted Elizabeth.

🌼 Sammy The Sunny 🌼:
Gotta go! Text ya in a bit😘

🌹 Wanda Maximoff 🌹:
Sure thing, lovely😍

Sammy's heart pounded for a second when she saw the little pet name Elizabeth used before her phone went off and exited the bathroom. "You're home early." Sammy stated, placing all her used clothes in the laundry basket.

"Yeah, there weren't a lot of things to do in the office today, so the boss let me off early." Macie replied. When Sammy spots the bag of food Macie had brought, her mouth starts watering, and her roommate already wants some, that's why she bought extra. "And yes, that's our dinner."

Once the key word was out, Sammy immediately hopped over to the dining table and started opening the plastic bag. "Slow down, you cavewoman! Don't rip the bag, we need that as our trash bag!"

"Jeez! Such a mom!" Though she obeyed the woman's order, she carefully took out the food, making sure not to spill anything and once everything was open and Macie was on her seat. The two of them began digging in. "Thank you for the food!" Sammy beamed before putting a spoonful of food.

Macie shook her head, "You're an absolute monster when it comes to food!"

"Food is my love language, honey!" Unlike Sammy who was downing everything, Macie ate slowly, softly blowing on the hot food, then there's the woman in front of her who didn't give a damn if the food was hot or boiling hot.
