THIRTEEN

~*Becky's POV*~

I slowly wake up and roll over to find Kai asleep next to me, gently snoring away. I groan and push him off. " Kia, get out!" I grumble, still half asleep. He jumps off my bed and trots out of the room. I pick up my phone off of my bedside table to check the time. 07.13.

I'm never going to get back to sleep now...

I groggily roll out of bed and pull on my dressing gown, tying it tightly, followed by my slipper socks. I brush my hair before pulling it up into a high bun and slip my iPhone into my pocket. I walk through the house to the kitchen and pull open the fridge, inspected the contents. I decide on scrambled eggs and bacon on toast with a fresh smoothie.

I place the bread in the toaster and start on the eggs. Once they are finished, I put them in the microwave to keep them warm before placing two rashes of bacon under the grill. I dig the smoothie maker out of the cupboard and plug it in, filling it with the necessary ingredients for a mango and passion fruit smoothie. I finish up by buttering my toast, laying a bacon rash on each slice and pour the eggs over it. I then pour my smoothie into a glass.

I sit down at the dining room table with a knife and fork and get stuck in. Kai is sat under the table whining with his paw on my knee. I soon give in and throw him a piece of toast. He picks it up off the floor and trots into the utility room.  He lays down on his bed and eats it there sparingly.

I'm half way through my breakfast when I notice a folded piece of paper with my name on it and a full sized Mars bar laying on the table diagonally opposite me.

I fill my mouth with more toast and bacon before picking up and unfolding the letter.

Morning Sweetheart,

I had to be in work early this morning. I was called in earlier this morning due to there not being enough doctors in today with a full hospital. I hope you don't mind, darling...

I walked Kai before I left but didn't have time to give him his breakfast. Don't forget to feed Rex and Rhydian either. You may want to clean them out too. They haven't been done all week. And you owe me big time young lady! You know I don't do creepy crawlys!

There is plenty of Ben and Jerry's in the freezer if you get peckish. Should be home around 7. I will text if there are any changes as soon as I find out.

Love you lots, Mum xxx

I finish off my breakfast and down the reminder if my smoothie, before plodding into the kitchen to put my dirty dishes into the dish washer. I give Kai his breakfast and put my Mars bar in the fridge for later before heading back to my room to get showered and dressed.

I wash my hair and body in the shower, not spending much time in there to relax. Once out and dried, I decide on my New York Police Department t-shirt and Brad's grey joggers, that I now own. I roughly towel dry my hair before putting it into two loose French plaits to dry. I don't bother applying any make up; no one is going to see me other than mum today. That's if she's even home before I go to bed...

I apply my Simple moisturiser to my face and neck and brush my teeth.

I walk back through to the kitchen and into the utility room to retrieve the bag of sand and a plastic bag, then making my way back to my bedroom. I open the door and take an immediate right and over to the spiral staircase in the corner of my room which I have decorated with small, white fairy lights.

I climb the spiral stairs and end up in my study. I have a desk in one corner that homes the latest Apple Mac computer, but is scattered with old bits of school work and piles of notebooks. That desk could do with a tidy sometime this week..
