SCARLETT POV

beep~beep~beep~be

'ughh, yeah just shut up already.' Every morning this alarm clock irritates me. Why can't it just be quiet for a single day. 

Every day I wake up at 5am, but this actually became one of my habits since the day I started my startup. But if anyone would have asked about my daily routine 5 years ago, I would be categorized as a nocturnal animal. 

  Getting up from my bed I brushed my teeth and took a small shower and wore my gym clothes. My nearby gym which is just 10mins walking distance from my penthouse opens at 5am. Without wasting my any time, I reached ground floor through the elevator with my Tommy (my golden retriever). We walked to the gym and Tommy went to the park beside with other dogs. Today, is Friday and its legs day (gosh! I hate this day). For 1hr I did my intense workout. 

When I saw myself in the gym mirror, I could see I have light lines in my abdomen area telling me that abs are starting to build

When I saw myself in the gym mirror, I could see I have light lines in my abdomen area telling me that abs are starting to build. I can't tell for how long I have been smiling like a creep, but I can't help I have wanted this ever since I was a teenager.

With this golden achievement I walked out of the gym and called Tommy so we could go to my home. After reaching, I filled my tub with warm water and dropped few drops of lavender oil. Gosh! It smells so heavenly. Then pulling myself out from the sweaty outfit and relaxed myself in the warm water. So relaxing. 

After 20 minutes of bathing, I came out of my bathroom and changed into normal clothes and went to my kitchen to make some breakfast. I don't have any cook because I love to cook and after all every morning I have too much time before going to office so why not make breakfast on my own.

Making some pancakes, I ate it and drank a glass of fruit juice and no, I didn't forget to give my tom his dog food. Then, I got ready for office, gave a flying kiss to my dog and went to my car.

My driver drove me to my company. As, I stepped out of my car as usual my head went slightly up to see the name of this empire.

My empire 'Pixel Grace'. My teenage dream to become rich to have my own tech company is now true. I also ranked in 15th position as richest in the world. Just by looking at this name drives me to work harder and achieve more. 

I went inside and was greeted by my receptionist with a soft smile. 'Good morning, Ms. Knights.'

'Good morning, Amber.' I greeted her in same way. Then I went to my elevator and pressed button for 40th floor. My company has 45 floors. Soon I reached my floor and was greeted by my secretary Clara. 'Good morning, ma'am.' I greeted her the same. Then I entered my office and was met by an enormous amount of work just like every day.

Today, is Friday and tomorrow is my favorite day not because it's off but because there is something that is very close to my heart and I love to do. Pulling myself out of my thoughts there was a knock on the door ''come in''. My secretary was there. ''Ma'am you asked me to remind you something regarding a personal assistant.'' She spoke placing my coffee on my table. 

Ah yes, a PA. I need a PA, there is always so much to do. "Yes, just make a job description regarding this and post it on the company website and recruitment platforms and make sure to mention candidate's age between 20 to 35." "Sure ma'am, anything else I can do."

"No, you are dismissed." With this she went away, and I stood up from my chair grabbing my coffee and standing in front of my office window giving me a wide view of New York city. Taking a sip of my coffee I got lost in my thoughts of what I don't know but I got zoned out. But just looking everything around me which is built of my hard work and determination & nothing else makes me feel what even I don't know. 

All I know is life couldn't be more pretty than this, I still remember all those bitter failures, taunts and what not but that's why today these all feel sweeter than it should have been.

'Uhm, you know what I am happy for you but seriously can you pls start working we have a lot to do today.'

UGH!! my own Conzy can never see me happy. But still, she is true. With that I sat on my chair and worked my ass off for the whole day. 

It's 5pm now, I decided to go home, greeting goodbye to my secretary and receptionist I went home. As soon as I opened the door I was met with an overly excited Tom. Seriously, in the world full of fake ones seeing someone who gets excited to see you every day like it's been so long we met each other is just heart melting. It's not that I don't have anyone I have my brother Lucas and my sweet grandparents, but I don't live with them so yeah seeing Tom like this is very adorable. 

I pecked his forehead and took a short shower and rested in my living room's couch with Tommy on my lap. But not too long because like every day he wants to go out for a walk and there is no choice. 

We went for a walk, and I also bought some groceries for dinner. Reaching home, I made lasagna and had my dinner.  Then I did my night routine and worked on my laptop for an hour and by 10pm I went to bed.

And today, I was more excited to sleep, I was eager for this night to went by and to start tomorrow's morning. Tomorrow is one of my favorite days.

"Good night, Tommy." and in return I was met by 

"Woof!!"

With a smile on my face, I drifted to sleep.
