London, 1970








I had been woken up at promptly 7:00 am by my annoying alarm clock. I look outside at the sky and it's a light grey cloudy type of day. I usually get to work by 8:00 and I am usually there until 6:00pm, maybe earlier.


"Nothing like doing the same thing every day " I say to myself as I slowly make my way from under my covers and took a step onto the cold hardwood floor. It is going to be a long day, I hope it isn't going to be a shit one though. 



My flat is a decent size, theres 1 bedroom a bathroom, the kitchen , a dining area and a living room. 




As I look around my room, I go over to my record player and pick out a beatles album to have on as I get ready for my day.


Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds from The Beatles Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts club album starts to play. 




" Always a good song to wake up to" I smile, this song is fun to listen to because my name is Lucy.


I walk slowly over to my closet, kind of dancing to the music while walking over. I start to think about my day as I pick out my clothes.



I have work until 6:00 and then tonight I am going out to a pub with a friend,  I heard there is a good band playing tonight. My friend and I love going to pub shows. 



Quickly, I get into my work clothes and then head to my kitchen to put on tea. I decide to make some toast and sit down in a chair. I look out my window to see that it is just barely spitting outside but I could tell it rained all night. There were puddles everywhere and there were raindrops coming off of the tree outside of my window. I have a top flat, so I have a nice view of the city where I can see everything. I run up stairs and turn my record player off before I do anything else.

7:30



I eat my toast and bring my tea in a to go cup to work, I'll be late if I don't leave right now. I grab a jacket off of the coat rack that I have near my door, lock it and head out." I forgot an umbrella, shit " I say to myself, Damn rain, I wore the right pair of shoes though, should've looked outside.


I walk the streets of London in the early morning, dreading the work day ahead. I catch the tube and get off at my stop. " Same shit everyday" I say to myself quietly as I walk into the boutique I work in. I walk in and greet my co-workers and I see my best friend , Amelia waiting for me behind the counter. Amelia has been my best friend since we were 5l, we went to Fox Primary School together.

" Lucy!" Amelia exclaimed running over to me, she immediately pulls me into a tight hug.

I love her so much, I think to myself and smile at her.


" I cannot wait until later, I heard the band is really good and they have a new lead singer. His name is Freddie." She exclaims.

" Oh, okay sounds cool. I'm excited too!" I say and we both go behind the counter and sit down.


"The drummer is really cute, his name is Roger. I think he is around our age." Amelia says while looking down at her hands, she is fidgeting with a hanger.


" Really, what does he look like?" I ask, Amelia starts to smile and gets up putting the hanger on the counter.


" Well, I wouldn't want to ruin that for you, now would I? You are seeing him anyway tonight." She says while walking away leaving me curious and excited for later.
