ASLEEP YET AWAKE

Ame in boots

"God! Lara you hardly have anything that can fit me". Anna yelled as she raided my closet to find something to wear to work. She rummaged through my neatly arranged clothes to get her fit. I knew she must have made a mess of it but I was in no mood to get up.

"Fucking shit lara! I am getting late". She yelled again and I silently groaned. I grabbed a pillow and threw it in the direction from where I assumed her voice was coming.

"Ouch". She screamed high pitched. I guess I hit her straight. Nice shot. I comlimented myself satisfied with my skills. I pulled another pillow and covered my head with it in order to shut the light and sound of her annoying complaints.

"Atlast....". Anna sighed with relief. Happiness clearly evident in her voice. She must have found something to wear, I guessed.

Something wet and hard hit my face and this time I groaned loudly in annoyance. Anna had just thrown her wet towel on my face.

"What the heck Anna". I screamed as I slowly sat up rubbing my eyes. I could seriously do with another hour of peaceful sleeping but I guess Anna and sleep cannot exist together.

Ame jumped on me and then on the floor and then rushed to find some place quiet to probably catch her sleep.
"You too Ame. You betray me". I complained out loud still rubbing my eyes.

I opened my eyes to see Anna combing her hair. "Morning sleepy head". She giggled at me sheepishly. "Since I don't have my own I am borrowing your clothes. I am in a hurry already. Jenny can be cruel sometimes too". She told me.

"Suit yourself". I mumbled and again drowned in the blankets on my bed.

"Such a lazy person you are. Good that now you are going to have one heck of a time cleaning this place you call your room". She walked out of the room and peeped inside one last time. "I am out. Meet you soon".

I peeped from inside my blankets and she blew a kiss at me. I made a face at her and went back to sleeping.

It had hardly been five minutes that my phone rang. I cursed under my breath and face palmed myself before getting up to pick it up. I picked up the call without even checking the name of the caller.

"Hello". I shot angrily in the phone.

"It's me. Did you just snap at me Lara?" My eyes widened at the voice. Shit happens.

"Oh! Mom. How are you? There already?" I spoke immideately. At the same time mentally face palming myself.

"Just got here this morning. I called to check on you if everything was alright. But you seem to be in a bad mood. Is it time of the month?" She said.

I rolled my eyes at her question. Why does she always come up with the most random suggestions? "No mom. I was sleeping". I told her.

"Okay. Better get up now. It's already pretty late". She commanded me.

"Yeah. Just about to". I told her silently.

"Okay. Talk to you soon. Love". She said and hung up.

I tossed the phone on my mind and scanned my room. It was a true mess of clothes and whatnot scattered everywhere. I sighed at the condition of my room. It is going to be one heck of a morning.

I stood up and stretched myself. I began with picking up all the clothes that probably Anna had thrown out of my closet. Since I was running late on time so instead of arranging everything properly inside the closet I just put everything in.

I made my bed and decided to have a shower before preparing breakfast. It took me half an hour to get ready. I looked at my watch. I still had some time which means I can make myself some breakfast.
