Being alarmed at the suspicious amount of sleep i was getting, i jumped up checking the time. Turns out i snoozed my alarm twice.
Sighing as i got off the bed i put my towel around my shoulders shuddering at how cold the morning was. Mornings like these are made for staying in your bed and sleeping the day away.
Yawning i trodded to the bathroom to wash my face, i then rubbed on my charcoal mask deciding to leave it on for the next 30 minutes. In that time i went downstairs to start on something for breakfast.
Seeing my stepfather in the kitchen my stomach immediately dropped. I ignored it and went ahead to get the mayonnaise out of the fridge. Turning around i came face to face with him as he had a scowl on his face and a prominent boner.
"Yuh nuh know fi seh morning again likkle gyal?" he said through gritted teeth. Knowing how this would end i avoided his question. He eventually left the room hissing his teeth and mumbling.
Him lucky.
I'm trying to make my first day at work a great one. Lighting the stove, i put the frying pan on and a slice of bread in it. Running up the stairs for my phone i came back down flipping the bread over just in time.
I opened my phone looking at the notifications on various apps and decided to check instagram first. I had posted a picture of myself two days ago and the likes were still going up.
As for whatsapp, my aunt texted me asking how i was and a few of my cousins. Answering them , i checked imessage ignoring luke's message and shutting my phone off. Taking the bread out i smeared mayonnaise onto it with some tuna.
Going back upstairs with my food i checked the time.
6:20
The time is going by a bit fast. So i hurriedly ate and drank some water then went to wash my plate out.
After finishing that task i hurriedly went to my room to take a shower. I washed the charcoal mask off before i lathered my face with soap. I soaped my rag up and washed my body thoroughly.
Exiting the bathroom, i walked over to the mirror admiring myself. Saying my daily affirmations i exited the bathroom just in time to see my stepfather leaving with my underwear.
I didn't lock the door?
Wrapped in my towel i shouted at him as he hurriedly scurried out my room dropping the undergarment on the way out. Turns out he picked my lock.
Tears brimmed my eyes as i felt unsafe here, i would've liked to think that things would get better when i got the door but obviously his creepiness has no limit.
Sighing i decided to not let that ruin my day as i lotioned and quickly slipped into my work clothes. I had scrubs in my closet for whenever i would start working.
It's grey and i took my black crocs out the bag and wore them. Slicking my hair back i added lipgloss and gave myself a once over before packing my tote bag and headed downstairs.
