My dreams were interrupted because of my alarm.

"I hate this thing, it rings for school and now because I work" I said while I was waking up.

I turn the light on, 7.30 am. I knew that if I didn't turn it on I would have fallen asleep again.

I spend a couple of minutes looking at the ceiling, preparing myself mentally. I stretch a little bit, then I got up from that comfortable bed. I went to the restroom and I wore the uniform. I put my make up on, I took the keys, phone and I went downstairs to have breakfast.

I came into the living room and soon enough Aurora started to talk to me.

"Good morning" she said smiling. She was so sharp, it looked like she was awake for hours.

"Good morning" I replied yawning.

"Did you sleep good?"

"Great thanks, I was pretty tired"

"Of course I understand it. Come on! Help yourself, here it's always a buffet so you can take whatever you like"

"Oh, ok thank you" I said walking away. I went to the other part of the room and I took a plate even though I wasn't sure of what to eat. Then I saw the chocolate croissant and since this are my favorite I took one. I walked near another table where behind of it there was a guy, I think he was around my age. He smiled at me and I smiled too.

"Hello" he said with a big smile.

"Hi" I replied with enthusiasm.

"What would you like to drink?"

"Uhm...a cappuccino please"

"Alright. Are you Marta?" he asked me.

I widened my eyes and I said "Ehm yeah. How do you know?"

He pointed to my jacket and I saw a tag with my name written on it.

"Oh, I didn't see it" I said laughing with him.

"Marta, the intern girl?"

"Yes, that's me" I sad smiling.

"And you are David, the coffee guy" I said looking at his jacket to read his name.

"Yup! I like how it sounds...coffee guy. I never thought about it. Here, your cappuccino is ready" he said giving me the cup.

"Thanks! I'll see you soon!" I said waving at him.

"At lunch we can eat together if you want. What time do you get off?"

"Yeah, I get off at 1 pm and I have to start again at 2.30"

"Perfect! I'll see you here then" he told me looking me right in my eyes. He was very good looking.

"Ok, have a nice day" I told him and I took a seat in one of the tables. When I finished to eat I went back in my room to brush my teeth then I looked at the clock. 8.32 am.
