My eyes were puff,dried up tears on my cheeks,the tiles felt colder than usual,and for a second I wondered why I was on tiles and not on a bed,but as soon as I opened my eyes I noticed I was lying down on the bathroom ground,I must have slept off yesterday,I thought to myself as I stood up to wash myself.
I walked into the bedroom and jumped on the bed to fetch my laptop,my hair in its usual messy bun and my clothes dysfunctional,I wore flip flops this time though,nothing too eccentric just humid.I opened the window and let fresh air in,my shoulders had healed properly although the pink scar still remained,my bones stiff from sleeping on cold tiles all through the night.
I tried to think of an activity to do,I could buy a car,or clothes,or food,wait no I went to the grocery stop not too long ago,then I could visit the church,or the library, I preferred the church though since I had a lot of issues to seek a miracle from God,but knowing me the crazy lady I picked the stupid mall.
Walking like a penguin I waltzed into the mall specifically a dress shop,the shop owner didn't exactly find me worthy of her clothes until I showed her my credit card and bought one of the most expensive clothes there,her mood changed form disgust to fan girl and I couldn't help but laugh.
My phone buzzed repeatedly but I showed no concern, partly because I knew who was calling and texting,after I couldn't take the noises anymore I pulled out my phone and looked through the messages.
Am really sorry for my son's behaviour,I have been trying to call you, please pick up.
Marion :(Should I tell him to apologise.
Marion ;(I would talk to him I promise
Marion :)Juliana you're scaring me,are you okay,call me if you're okay
MarionI didn't know what made me smile,the fact that the messages were cute or that he used emojis,what a blasted man,and a great friend too,probably going to be a great father in-law but his son is just another ball game.
Soon I got another message.Um....Juliana this us Adrian, don't freak out,my dad gave me your number,I just wanted to say am sorry and I really hope you forgive me,although I didn't do anything wrong.
Unknown number.My mood quickly changed to that of anger as I shut my phone off,that crazy son of Marion would be the death of me one day.
I got back home and change my clothes to nude coloured tank top and jean shorts shorts,my reading glasses shielded my green eyes from the lighting of my laptop,I check through systems,I finally found a job vacancy, for a strange named company, I hacked the owners email and sent him a personal resume, that way he would see my resume first,I hope.
I stopped looking through the laptop when i felt a rumble in my tummy,as I stood up and walked towards the small kitchen,the hotel room was large enough to stage as an apartment that way I wouldn't need room service and pay tips,I got to saucing,flipping the pan for effect, I had already plated my food when I heard a sound at the door.
