Unfolding The Unplanned.

Chapter 02: Break Up's, Make Up's, Oh My.

(*) Lacey's Point Of View (*) – October 2016.

Placing the coat on my shoulders, I sigh as I look at myself through the big mirror that we got from a corner shop down one of the lanes in town. Seeing my body change shape over the last few months after the twins were born, my stomach nearly went back to the way it was but I still have the extra-weight that I gained from being pregnant. I don't know how many pounds I have gained but let's just say I was about 7 stone 7 pounds beforehand and now I am 8 stone 2 pounds. I know that I am not overweight but I don't look like I used to as my stomach hands over my jeans – I clearly need to get toned. Anyway, my b00bs have scrunch in size by about half a cup, they look flat and unattractive.

Beep, beep.

My phone buzzes on the side table, sending me out of my thoughts, I sigh again and rack my hands through my hair. Then I start to button my coat up as I continue to look at myself in the mirror. I really need to get fit, grabbing my phone and my bag, I quickly place other items in the bag such as: water, keys, purse and notes for university alongside pen and a notebook. Now back to my phone, I unlock it as I scan the room for another other items that I have forgotten, my brain comes up with nothing so I decide to make my way downstairs, before I step on the staircase, I check on the twins to see if they are okay – which they are as they are fast asleep.

Reading through Toby's text, I type a response back as I make my way downstairs.

Toby: (Almost there, tired as f*ck, how are the twins and you?)

Me: (I'm okay, how far are you away as got a lecture in ten so need to go soon. The twins are asleep.)

Grabbing an orange from the fruit basket, I throw it into the bag as the front door open, Toby entering the house, looking tired as hell.

The door slams shut behind me as I give him a smile. "No I can't work tonight sorry, I can work tomorrow after my lecture about 2pm as my lecture finishes at 1:20. So I can work then." He replies to the person on the phone, throwing me a smile as he dumps his black satchel onto the floor – still speaking to the person on the phone. I just him a quick kiss on the cheek and ignore the fact that he just cancelled our plans without actually informing me about it, I walk past him towards the door, opening the door, I make my way towards university.

"So I am currently walking out of my lecture, a boring two hour lecture about how film studies have been used in history. It was really boring at the start but once we got into the lecture, it was quite good." I say to the camera as I exit the university, slamming the door behind me as I start to walk home. I know I have passed my driving test but I don't want to use the car twenty four seven when it is not necessary. "We learnt about how film has evolved and it was quite interesting. It was good until we got to the point when the lecturer said about homework which consists of creating something unique. Basically we have a couple of months to create a unique project, we have to film something special for an hour."

Walking past a group of second years gossiping about god knows what, sending me strange looks, I probably looks really weird as I am talking to the camera, when I first started vlogging, it was strange and I was awkward to do it in public but as I now have done it for a couple of months, it is okay now. "Sorry about that, anyway I think I know what I am going to do. But it will be a surprise and I'll keep you informed with the progress." I say to the camera, checking the crossing before I walk over the road. "Walking home at the moment, I am hungry as hell and I think it is time for Toby to cook tonight, think he is making pasta and pesto. I can't wait to eat as I haven't eaten for about five hours and my last meal consists of ready brek. Anyway yea, I don't know what to say now so I will let you watch the scenery and my feet." I speak to the camera, letting out a chuckle, pressing the flip button on the camera, it flips so the camera lens is showing the scenery. Moving the camera around so the small viewers of the YouTube channel can see the scenery.
