Waking up on a Sunday morning feels like stepping into a spa for my soul. Today was no different—I emerged from my cocoon of blankets feeling rejuvenated and ready to conquer the day. Stretching my arms, I relished in the peaceful start, the gentle morning light filtering through the curtains.
After making my bed with satisfying smoothness, I selected my favourite upbeat song, its lively melody perfectly matching my mood. The music filled the air as I made my way to the bathroom, enjoying the cool tiles beneath my feet contrasting with the warmth of the morning.
Turning on the shower, hot water cascaded over me like a waterfall, washing away any lingering traces of sleep. The steam rose around me, creating a cozy cocoon of warmth. I reached for my trusty shower gel, a zesty blend of eucalyptus and mint that never fails to wake me up. Squeezing some into my hand, the invigorating scent sliced through the steam, making me feel like I'd just stepped into a spa for my senses.
The gel transformed into a rich, luxurious foam as I smoothed it onto my skin, the mint creating a refreshing, tingling sensation that played against the warmth of the water. With each inhale, the eucalyptus cleared my thoughts, awakening my senses. Massaging the lather into my muscles, I felt the week's tension melt away, replaced by a peaceful sense of calm. I ended up spending more time than intended under the water, but it left me feeling clean and refreshed.
Stepping out I wrapped myself in a towel and cleared the steam from the mirror, revealing a refreshed reflection that spoke volumes about the rejuvenating effects of a satisfying shower.
In the kitchen, the rich aroma of tea mingled with the lingering scent of my shower gel, creating a comforting blend. Having toasted a bagel, spreading cream cheese on it, I relished the simplicity of my breakfast. Sitting by the window, I savoured each bite, feeling a deep sense of contentment wash over me.
With my tea still warm in my hands and the towel wrapped around me, I made mental notes of the day ahead: a leisurely walk in the park, diving into a good book, perhaps ending with a cozy movie night.
As the clock struck six in the evening, I found myself in a contemplative mood. The sun gently began its descent, casting a warm, golden glow over everything in sight. I sat on my bed pondering whether to venture out for a walk in the park or to stay indoors.
Closing the book I had been engrossed in, I rose from the bed, my glasses perched on my nose. Curiosity led me to the balcony, a place I rarely visited.
Standing in that familiar spot, memories of my teenage years flooded back, when I used to sneak out here to smoke, hiding from my dad. The pang of missing him hit me as I reminisced about those moments.
Noticing the balcony chair slightly out of place, a small detail that always bothered me, I took a moment to set it right. The act felt oddly satisfying.
With a mix of nostalgia and contemplation, I closed the sliding door and returned indoors. I decided to stay indoors and settled on my couch, turning on the TV.
The movie turned out to be boring, and just as I was contemplating ordering food, the doorbell rang.
Rising from the couch, I opened the door and my heart skipped a beat in surprise. I adjusted my glasses on my nose, trying to hide my astonishment.
"Hi!" Maya greeted me with a warm smile, which always had a way of getting to me.
"Hi," I replied, noticing the pack of beer she held in her hand.
"I got this today at work, but I don't drink, so I thought I'd give it to you," she explained.
A flurry of questions flooded my mind, but I chose to ask the most pressing one at the moment.
