Madhus pov.
 

I woke up to the sound of a vacuum. Afraid,  I got up to check what was going on. I looked and realised it wasn't even from my room. After paying a bit more attention, I realised it was her room.
 
She wasn't joking when she said the walls were thin.
 
I grunted as I tried falling back asleep, but to my luck, the sound snatched my sleep.
 
I twisted and turned, trying to sleep. Finally giving up, I grabbed my phone. I checked my notifications, and....
 
Low battery.
 
I shot up, sitting on the edge, I checked the plug, and I realised I did not pull it in.

I'm going to choke myself with the charger.
 
I tried getting up and putting my phone in charge. Walking towards the washroom, I grabbed my brush and started brushing my teeth. When,
 
YUCK!
 
I spat out, looking at the brush. I stared at it for a minute and realised I put my face cream instead of the toothpaste.
 
I closed my eyes, taking a deep breath. 
 
It's okay,

Breath, Madhu.
 
I took the brush in my hand and applied the paste aggressively. I started brushing and was finally done with that part. While doing my morning skin care, I sat on the bed, still hearing the vacuum.
 
I took my phone, still plugged in, and started scrolling. The network was painfully slow, making me more frustrated than I already was.

Why is my day going so badddd?

I mentally wailed. 

Let's make coffee!

I quickly got up and ran towards the kitchen. Once I reached my desired place, I quickly heated up some water. While waiting for it, I looked around to see where everyone was.

"Oh, you woke up?" 

I looked in the direction and saw Aunty Jeeya. I smiled and said, "Good morning."
 
"What are you making?" she asked, coming towards me.
 
"Coffee," I answered, watching the water boil.
 
"Oh, so you bought the coffee powder?" She asked, and I turned my head in her direction so fast that I almost twisted it.
 
"Huh?"

"Yesterday, Kanu was almost throwing the house over because there was no coffee powder," she said with a chuckle.
 
I quickly opened the shelf to see if there was any coffee powder. I grabbed the jar, and to my misery..... it was empty.
 
I'm going to cry
 
I held the jar as I looked at it with outmost sadness.
 
"Madhu, I wanted to inform you that I won't be here today, I have to meet some friends, and Kanu will be out too. She has some projects to work on," she revealed. 
 
"Is she here right now?" I questioned.

"I think she just left. She was in a hurry."  Aunty answered, and I nodded in understanding.
 
"Okay, then, I'm going to leave. If there is any progress, just call me or Kanu," she informed, walking out as I heard her shut the main door.
 
I walked out, and finding the house to myself felt a bit odd, but I shrugged it off. Walking towards my room, I checked my phone. 

OH MY GOD!
 
Today, the new episode of "Bad Thinking Diary" is going to drop. 

I quickly went and tapped the "Q" icon, and people were already talking about it. 
 
What?!

Kim Minji brought a toy? 

Omg, omg!
 
I ran towards my drawer. I took my laptop and turned it on. 

I opened one of those sketchy websites and tried to find the new episode. but the network was not working.

I frantically picked up the laptop, trying to move around the room to find a bit of network.

What?
 
Why is it not working?
 
I tried every nook and cranny of the room, but the strangeness was just loading.

Should I try going downstairs?
