A sound blares. I jolt upward and clasp the edge of my bed by the deafening sound of a blow horn. The sheets on my purple bed fling off, along with the books on top of them making a clang sound by the side of my bed. My warmth flows out of me and I immediately curl into a ball. I knew my mom must've gotten up before me which means she's in a somewhat happy mood. Before I can look up my mom hugs me and practically squeezes the life out of me. I immediately slap her hand away.
"Can't I sleep for a little longer?" I say as sluggish as ever.
As Helena looks at my partly undressed body she says "You know it's your Facility Quest today, right?" I think for a second and realize she's right. She's probably thinking right now about what life will be without me, but she always acts because she wants people to be happy. Otherwise she's thinking of what present she can get me before my quest. I look around my room and find all of the things I own are strewn around my bedroom including my prized inventions.
"Well you better get ready. Find your dress and comb your hair. Oh and don't forget, it's your birthday!" The words echo in my ears as my mom excites them out of her mouth. Her jovial voice annoys me sometimes. How can she be so happy all the time? I chew my nails as I think about the quest. And don't judge me, everyone has their habits. This is the biggest day of my life, can't believe it's already today. Hopefully it will go better than expected.
