"Shut up!" I shouted extending my hand to my table watch to stop it from ringing. "Well Great! Another day of mental torture."
I laid for a moment on my two pieces bed. Listening to all the early morning birds and watching lil sunlight leave shadows from my window to my table. Few minutes later I jumped off my soft sheets and made my bed before hoping into the shower. As usual I put on my cool pants, shirt and sneakers and strolled all the way to the kitchen for breakfast.
"What are you wearing" Mom asked.
"My usual clothes" I answered unbothered sipping from my coffee and taking a bite on my sandwich.
"Oh honey, No!" She screamed. "What am I gon do to make you believe that dressing good won't invite any disrespect as long as it's decent" she laid her hand on her forehead shaking her head.
"Get used to it Mom. This is who I wanna be and it's how I'm gon stay for as long as the universe wants." I stated holding in a laugh. I could tell how annoyed she was.
"Whatever! I got a meeting in 30 mins. We need to go."
As soon as I stepped into the building elevator, two of my co-workers walked in. Occupying the entire atmosphere with their Beyonce perfumes and their ten inch heels reaching for the roof. I just gushed holding in a laugh.
"New shoes" Tora questioned looking down my feet.
I just rolled my eyes and showed my self out as the lift stopped at level four. No body really knew me. They've only got to believe what I wanted them to believe. Besides I had specific people that I could only vibe with. Under all my covers and layers still lied a beautiful Cassandra but outside lays a peaceful and lonely Danielle.
"Maya, what are you doing this weekend" I queried Maya after all the crazy morning greetings.
"You know you're my only friend in this crazy new big city."
"How would you like being Cinderella's friend for the night" I smirked.
"You mean go to the ball with the most drop-dead gorgeous gowns?" she beamed.
"Uhm more like it" I chuckled
"I would be delighted! Count me in" She beamed again with excitement.
"How far are you with the project ladies" Our boss walked in.
"Almost there Sir, just a few more touches and then we'll be done." I answered clearing my throat.
"Awesome. I expect good results. And Danielle go back to your office. I pay you to work, not to sit around mouthing tales." He lectured marching to his office.
"Right away Sir"
I strolled back to my space making faces with Maya.
"You're such a dork" she shouted.
"I like that" I yelled back.
Sitting right in ma office. I started wondering about Saturday. Still contemplating if I should go or not. I looked up online shopping to see if I could find two striking dresses for myself and Maya for Saturday evening. I would have to be my old self at least just for one night In order to fit in.
How I'm going come to face with myself and make a deal with my old self for Saturday's party would be a mystery for now.
