I just got off of work and was in need of music. I plugged my ear buds in and went through my playlist. I decided to play "A Change is Gonna Come" by Sam Cooke. 

I left the small bookstore, after waving bye to Mavis and Walter, the elderly couple who happen to own the shop. I started walking through the streets of London as it started to snow. I was humming to the song as I stopped at a crossing since there were cars zooming through the intersection.

Eventually the light changed and I crossed. The song changed as I stepped onto the curb and continued walking. I finally reached my apartment building.

I walked through the lobby and passed Michael, the man who sits at the front desk, and smiled twords him then continued to the elevator. I rode up nine levels and walked to my front door.

I slipped the key into the lock and twisted it till I heard a click. I heard sniffing at the door as I fiddled with the key. When it finally opened I twisted the knob and pushed the door open. "HI Bubba!" I exclaimed as my basset hound, Brutus, came bounding over since he left the door since I don't know how to work a simple key and lock.

"You look like you just woke up" I said in a high pitched voice so he'd wag his tail. I got on my knees and patted his head.

I closed the door and stood up with a sigh. I walked to my kitchen's island and set my purse and water bottle down. I scooped a cup of food for Brutus and filled his water bowl aswell. After hopping in the shower and washing my hair and body, I got out, dried myself off,  and went to the kitchen and made some food. I ate my mac and cheese while watching a football match. When Manchester won against Chelsea, I got done with my happy dance, which included Brutus running circles through the flat, I walked to my room.

I changed in to a pair of pajama shorts and a hoodie. I lifted Brutus onto the bed since he has tiny legs and can't jump high, then slid into a deep sleep, dreaming of what tomorrow could bring.
