Iris P.O.V.

I felt something gooey on my cheek and groaned at it. I wiped it with my shoulder and wondered if the air-conditioner is broken again. It is so irritating, I thought and waited for the next drop. Drop of slob!!! Again. This seems irritating, pretty irritating. I turned sides in irritation and I felt something bony underneath myself. Wait! Did I squish Rebecca. Maybe I did. I lazily removed my leg from her and changed my side again. There is something sharp and pointy here. Did the mattress just get torn. Ugh! I am so irritated to even get mad at somebody or put my mind onto it. I felt the sloby-goo on head this time and scooted away from my spot a little bi finally being able to change sides without getting Rebecca squished.

An another annoying thought hit me. I have to go to work. Gosh! The paper work is too much to do. I grudged and got up on my hands only. And snailed my way; with my eyes shut, off the bed. I wonder why the bed seems so long... wait- What does not seem long when you just wake up. Nothing is short and my feet seem to be pushing me so much. They're being mean. Life is mean and there is no Annie. I wonder why she didn't wake me up. 

A sudden chill of wind shook me and I came a little into my senses. I am not at home and what else is that it brings home. The wind of reality; it always seems to faze me. I wonder why it's so harsh. Yes, it brings reality back to me. I wonder about that thing Annie told me a long time ago. 

Forget about it Iris it's kind of haunting... 'desires are not to be put in this world' What the heck does that even mean. Annie is too much of a careful and daunted person. She believes in god more than needed. She felt the need to say no to me for it. Huh- life can be a garden. It sure can be.

I shook the crazy thoughts out of my mind and caught a grip on the bars for helping me stand. She is so stupid, but I can't help but love her for some reason. Stupid am I? Who says I am not. I ignored all the thoughts; they get my self-esteem low. I love myself too much. I guess.

Chase came and kept a hand on my shoulder and I looked back at him and smiled. This morning was so bad. I would have not thought about it in years that I can let that Annie go. I won't let her. 

His gaze was questioning me on what I was thinking I could tell and it's not that I could tell him that what I am thinking. I ignored him and walked past him to the bucket of water. 

"Don't use that it's unclean" He told me and I looked back at him and frowned. Making him chuckle at me and I just sigh. I need to wash my face.

"Ol' Hail the beauty queen" He said to me and walked over taking a napkin from his pocket and making it's way for my face. Ugh! Doesn't he know it spoils the face; there can be thousands of germs and harmful bacteria in there. I raise my hand and stop him, he frowns at me. Why is he doing that?

"Can I just not do anything like this" I asked Chase and he got hurt just by that and I don't care for if he is.  But still I have to apologize; to keep up my reputation.

"Oh! I'm sorry just don't trouble me now- am too sleepy." My mind is messing with me a great deal, I wanted to say but I didn't and walked to the bed sitting on it. I would love to have a little rest or water right now or even clean my mouth it smells bad and the taste is horrible. 

I sighed and looked out at the trees standing calmly and the rushing wing and the sound of running water. The gushing, chirping birds and that breeze. It sounds good and the fact that it's not morning yet; the sun is to be at its horizon at the ed of the mountains. The purple sky with clouds giving it that touch of blue in it. The view it beautiful but the bars ruin it all for me. The dirty bars of the color dusty black with that rough brown on it. I wish they can be broken or perhaps they can be, I wouldn't try it.
