It was Saturday, and unlike everyone else in this house, I woke up early. I valued my peace in the morning when I used to live alone, so this small sacrifice of waking up early was very necessary.
I took a long shower to start the day off fresh and rejuvenated. Completing my skincare and hair routine, I threw on a black ensemble to run errands in. To allow my hair to penetrate with the hair mask, I wrapped my hair in a coral pink scarf.
I basked in the silence making a pot of coffee. I always found this action so relaxing—pure bliss.
Maybe it was the coffee addiction talking but it is what it is.
Lounging in my couch, I stared out the window watching the snowmelt. The seasons would be changing soon—coincidence with my own.
Queen—royalty—spectators—obligations—
It all made my head spin.
" Good morning," Mack asked as he entered the kitchen with sweatpants and a t-shirt.
"Morning"
" What you have planned for today?"
"Running errands since you all eat like animals"
"Well, there is a lot of us here—but we're here to help you with—packing and you're house"
"Yeah yeah, spare me the dramatics"
" Fine, but I'll come with you"
" Why?"
"Because Sebastian obviously wouldn't expect us all to be here to help without actually keeping you safe"
"I don't need your protection. I'm perfectly capable of taking care of myself"
"I'm still coming with you"
"Fine" I sighed.
" I'll come too" Anthony announced as he tumbled into the kitchen, almost falling in the process.
Great, my me time was officially over. The one thing that brought me pure solace was far away now.
" Well then—we should leave before anyone else invites themselves"
" Come on, you know you love me, Toni"
" I love Sebastian—don't get it twisted. You know he has minor anger issues"
