In the morning, I went downstairs and ate breakfast. No. I didn't sleep well. All night I was tossing and turning, and I just couldn't go to sleep. I actually don't think I got sleep at all. Did I tell my parents that? No.
I am usually a heavy sleeper on the weekends. I would always sleep in till 8-9:00. Then I went back upstairs and into my room. I saw my face reflected onto the window. I had bags under my eves and I looked like a mess.
I went into the bathroom to go wash up. I splashed cold water into my face and rinsed my mouth, brushed my teeth and eventually slipped my not PJ clothes on. Then I saw the box. If I'm to tired, do I have to go practice for the mission today?
I decided to put the necklace on anyway. Not knowing what Nori would think. Then the portal appeared and I stepped in.
I took my hand up and stroked it down to make my dress appear.
"What happened to you?". Nori asked
"I didn't sleep well."
"I know why."
"Why"
"I'll tell you later. It's the mission your on that's affecting your sleep."
Nori showed my some more tricks and I eventually fell over in exhaustion.
"Nori, I don't think I can do anymore. "
"Ok. To fix this you need to rest. Go ahead, sit on the couch." Nori made a quick comfy looking couch appear.
Hours passes and I found myself back in bed, without my dress and without the necklace. PJs on as well. I was apparently more tired than I thought. Was Nori mad at me for sleeping?
I have so much to learn before my mission she always said. I couldn't help myself, with all of these questions whirling around in my head, I eventually fell asleep again.
