    I woke up at eleven o'clock. It was Sunday. I was feeling released and happy. I'd rested all I had left and awoke as another person. Today was a new day.

    The first thing I did was call Becca. She didn't answer her phone so I did as usual: do my needs in the toilet, wash my face and brush my teeth, put on my flippy floppies and go to the kitchen, eat some cereal and drink some milk (in this case lunch), go upstairs again. Tomorrow I went to school onces and for all. I felt happy for that becuase I was going to see Becca again. I wanted to gather around with her today, but if that wasn't possible, then I'd see her tomorrow morning. Today I wanted to go out, live life and have fun. I had a week wasted because of my illness and now i wanted to be free. Wether the climate wasn't good, it was perfect to go to the movies or something like that. I wish Rebbekah answered her phone. And that's when I got a message from my best friend telling me sorry for not answering the portable. She also suggested chatting through Whatsapp. I nodded to myself and replyed. Our conversations are short but effective:

        "Why didn't you go to the party the other day? Are you okay?"

        "Yeah, don't worry about me. I was just sick, that all..."    

        "Oh! So you are feeling good now?" She wanted to make sure of it

        "Yes of course!" I grinned to myself. "So... What are your plans for today?"

         "Well, I was wondering the same about you!"

         "Coincidende?"

         "I don't think so..." We both shouted. Next, we laughed.

        "Actually, I thought of going to the cinema. What do you think? Want to join me?" She asked friendly.

          "Yeah, sure. A great choice for a day like this..." I added.

          "And what would you like to see?"

          "Which one's the one with Johnny Depp as the main character?"

       "Pirates of  the Caribbean." She affirmed. "I've been looking foward to see that one since last week ! Let's go watch it"

           "Okay. I'll check on the cinema's page and tell you at what time we have to be there."

           "Marvelous ! See you there."

           "Bye." We both greeted and hanged up the phone.

   I quickly changed Whatsapp to Network and searched for it. It was playing at 13 o' clock , 15.30 and six in the evening. The nearest one was the second choise because it was 14.05 at the moment. I messaged Becca and arranged she was going to fetch me up in about half an hour. Rebbekah told me to get some money to buy the ticket and, if I wanted to, a snack.

   What would I wear?

   I opened my closet. It was a cloudy day with high expectations of the sun comming out around four. Taking that last information into count, I dressed up with matching colours between the day and my skin tone. My final match of clothes was a pair of grey jeans, black boots, a blue short sleeve t-shirt with a sweater on top of it and a winter coat, just in case the weather did not change and the wind blew cold. The blue would enhance my eyes. It also matched perfectly with my tan and hair colour. I'm blonde haired. At the time I had finished my outfit, I heard the bell ring. I nearly rushed and almost fell down the stairs. I finally made my way to the door and opened. It was Becca waiting in the car. It was freezing outside. Thank God I made up my mind to take the winter coat with me that evening. If not, I'd catch a cold again.
