AMARA
I wake up early against my will I pull my covers away exposing my bare legs after taking off the jeans i wore yesterday in the middle of the night feeling uncomfortable to sleep in themI stare at the roof for about a minute and decide to get up and take a shower before work I leave my room and come face to face with my mum coming from Sally's room. she was my little sister but she died 1month into the world. And in that month she brought so much joy. I was completely heart broken but I pushed through it for mum
she smiles brightly with her perfect teeth saying goodmorning and walks awayNothing is good about the morning. yes I'm one of those people that hate the morning because why be happy about waking up from peaceful dream world I honestly could live in my dreams forever
I smile at my thoughtI drag my feet on the ground and push myself to the bathroom I lock the door once I'm in and realization hits me. I can't play music
aaahhh, kill me, already missing my phone
I turn the shower on and wait for a few minutes for the right temperature I go in and my muscles relax under the hot pouring water. I take my vanilla and caramel scented body wash and clean myselfafter about half an hour, I'm out and getting ready for work I get dressed, and decide to carry my laptop, since its my current way of communicating with my friends and step out of my room I run downstairs already late and head out the door after saying my goodbyes
(Amara's outfit)
I don't like food in the morning, it makes me feel nauseas so I wait still 10 am or 11am
The walk to the bus stop is about 30min if, I just want to be late but on average, its about 15min or less
I get on the bus and check that my favourite spot wasn't taken right at the window, one sit.
I love it because i don't have to get up to let anyone pass the bus added sits in the middle for more customersI look out the window like they do in movies and just watch the scenery lost in thought
The bus comes to a stop after about 20min. it takes longer sometimes, with people dropping off at different stops
I get off and walk to my work place which is another 20min from the bus stop
I work in a very popular cafe that always smells like muffins and coffee. Mrs Anderson makes the best muffins, cupcakes, cookies, anything, you name it she can bake it. she's literally the best Baker I know. And I think she even became better after her husband passed.
He was the sweetest. I used to come here everyday after school and the would save me my favourite coffee just how I liked it.
Did I mention I love coffee. cuz I really do. I absolutely love coffee.
Anyway back to the Andersons,
Mr Anderson died of cancer last year, I don't know what cancer it was and its not like I could ask. I mean, I could but I feel its rude.
