You wake up to the peaceful sound of birds chirping and the sun shining threw the blinds of your window. You sit up straight in your bed and stretch feeling the satisfying cracks in your joints. With a quick exhale you stand up ready to start the day. Changing out of your pajamas and putting on your usual clothing you race down stairs to grab something quick to eat, brush your teeth after and head down the hall to your office. As a freelance animator you not only get to make your own hours but you can also work in the comfort of your own home, so long as you have the right equipment. Sitting down in your comfy office chair you power up your computer ready to work. Even with the events from yesterday you never let them get to you or your work. Being an animator helps you forget. you get so focus in your work that you forget that your alone in this house. With your hands busy, mind focused and music playing it doesn't feel so lonely anymore. Instead, it's refreshing.

With the scene you're working on almost finished, only needing a few tweaks here and there you take a glance at the time on the computer. 'Half past noon'. 'I guess i can take a break for now'. With that thought in mind you decide to go and make some lunch to refuel. Upon opening the fridge you find not very much inside.

"Guess i should go to the store and restock." You mumble to yourself. Looking around the kitchen you make a list of what you need folding the paper and putting it nicely in your bag. Grabbing your phone and keys you put your bag over your shoulder. Locking the door behind you make your way into town. Passing the park you hear what sounds like someone in distress. you look over to a child trying to climb a tree but having no luck whatsoever. Feeling sorry you walk over to them.

"Excuse me? Are you alright?" you ask the child. They look up at you with tears about to fall.

"M-My kite i-i-is stuck" The kid points up in the tree. You look where they are pointing to see what looks like a spaceship? 

"Here let me try and get it" You make sure that your bag is tightly attached to you before grabbing the tree branch above. Pulling on it you see if it can handle your weight. seeming fine you pull up with as much strength as you can and grab the next branch bring you up higher. Finding some footing you pull yourself up to sit next to the kite. Untangling the kite from the tree being very careful not to damage the kite.

"Ready?" you ask the kid ready to drop the kite down. The child wipes their face and opens their arms. Giving you a nod you drop the kite safely into their arms. Once you hope down from the tree you get a big hug from the child.

"Thank you so much." you smile down at them and pat their head lightly.

"it's no problem just be careful around trees okay?"  

"Okay" The kid lets go and waves good-bye before running back to the park. You wave back and continue your walk to the store with a proud smile on your face. On your way to the store you smell something heavenly. Following your nose you find yourself in a coffee shop. 'i should get something to eat first then I'll do my shopping.' with that in mind you walk up to the counter and order a ham and swiss sandwich with a small strawberry smoothie. Sitting down by a window you take a large bite of your sandwich. Looking out the window you enjoy your lunch in silence. Watching people walk by you can't stop but see the many couples walking hand in hand. Before you can think anything dark you feel your phone buzz in your pocket. Seeing who's calling you're quick to answer."hello?"

"Hey (y/n). Just wanted to check to see how you're doing?" Your friend on the other end asks.

"oh yeah i'm good. Just eating lunch then going shopping before i get back to work." You drink a bit of your smoothie. "How are you?"

"I'm alright, work has been a bit of a pain but i'll live. Anyway I wanted to know if you wanted to hangout this weekend." Taking another bite of your sandwich you think for a moment.
