You woke up from the sound of the chirping birds, the rustling of the trees, and the peeking sunlight from outside. As the raging wind of the sunny weather caressed your cheek from the gap of your window, your dog barked in an attempt to wake you more. Just when you softly opened your eyes to see who made you wake up so suddenly, your dog greeted you with a lick on your nose. Your canine companion jumped on your bed then hopped onto your stomach for a cuddle. You slowly hug their face after kissing their furry forehead to respond to its bark earlier. Your pet sat down beside you as you stretch your arms and legs.

Since it's weekend and you planned to take your pet for a walk, you've decided to grab a plate of eggs and fried pork sausages in the morning before taking a hot shower. You took your phone from your side-desk, scuffing next to your door while your dog follows you from behind.

You both rushed down to fill up your morning then went straight to the dining table where your mom greeted you with a beam on her face. She took a pan of pancakes from the stove, placing a small stack on your plate gently. The essence of your mother's masterpiece lured you to take over the food while your dad approached your dog to feed it. 

Your mother now placed your favorite hot beverage for you to drink in the morning.

"Thanks, Mom," you smiled, "And dad." she beamed as well.

After finishing up, you immediately told your parents that you'll be going out to take your pet to the park to relax.

"Okay honey," your mom uttered, "don't forget to be here before lunch." she and your father reminded you in unison.

As soon as you stepped out of your bathroom, the fragrance of your liquid soap wafts in your room. You scuffed in your slippers, stepping through the warmth of the breeze from the windowpane. You went to your closet in your silky bathrobe to grab an outfit. After wearing the clothes that are appropriate for the weather, you crouched down to your pet, clicking the leash to their collar. Your dog replied with soft bark, tugging you towards the doorway.

"Okay, okay. We'll leave now," you patted its head, completely walking out of your room after snatching your shoulder bag from your desk.

The buzzing of the neighbors and the zoom of all the vehicles greeted you when you stepped out off your porch. The sun and the clouds did the same too, complimenting your attire that fitted with the weather perfectly. Your sleeveless crop top and high waist shorts gained attention to all passers-by from the sidewalk. They were looking at you since the moment you skedaddled across the sidewalk with your dog. You leisurely strut away from the blocks you passed by recently, entering the large open area of a family of trees from a distance. You tugged your dog along your way as it follows you to the children fooling around the park.

"Finally, we're here," you muttered to yourself.

The ear-piercing laughter and squeal of kids; and the squeak of the see-saw and slides gave you nostalgic ambiance of the good 'ol days of youth. Despite the current atmosphere occurring between you and your companion, you decided to buy ice cream when you first came to the park.

"One (fav flavor), please." the bearded man around the age of thirties handed you a cone of (fav flavor) after scooping two tiers for you. "Thanks," you retorted with a smile.

Sometimes listening to music, and crafting stories on Wattpad became a habit when you're outside. But this time, you wanted to capture the beauty of the trees that covered the park with a satisfying natural color. You are about to grab your phone and approach a bench from a distance when your two tiers of ice cream splattered all over your outfit from a sudden collision.
