I woke up by 8:15 am in the morning. I was feeling dizzy and my body felt tired. I went to the bathroom, changed myself into a formal grey shirt with jeans. I decided to tie my hair in a ponytail but as I twisted my hair in a bun all day, my ponytail was very messy and wavy. I changed my plan and tied them into a bun. Then I wrapped the scarf around my neck.

'This will keep you protected. ' my mother used to say.
She was right I supposed.

I grabbed my document folder, mobile phone and my bike keys. I wasn't a big fan of purses and handbags so I avoid them.
It was already 8:42 am so I skipped the breakfast as the interview was at sharp 9:00 am.
I stepped out of my room. The lounge was peaceful. I switched off the little lounge light and stepped towards the main door of the apartment.

......

The interview went beyond my expectations and I was told that I'll be informed by an acceptance call the next day. I was glad that everything went smooth.

Then I drove to the office where I applied for the job.
"Ms.Wordsworth, you should be knowing that you aren't illegible for the job since we are hiring qualified people so you shouldn't have wasted your and our time." An elderly man was sitting in front of me who was in his late 50's.

"Sir, I'll do my best and prove you that I'm illegible for this job. I promise." I tried to convince him.
"Young lady, we need skills and qualifications, not promises and swears." He said in a tone which was louder than before.

"I'm very dedicated to work for you. I'll bring out the best results for your company." I said
"Do you think you could do that while keeping up with your studies? No madam you can't." He said and put my document file in front of me indicating me it was a clear refusal.
I tried every way to convince him but then gave up. I left the office and ran to different several buildings but  either got a clear NO or doubted YES.

I know I didn't know anything about advanced digital art but I could learn the graphics once I tried to work for some organization.

Once I was done from all the offices I called the restaurant where I applied for a job. I know this would not be enough for my bills and stuff but something less was good than nothing.

When I called the reception I got to know that somebody else was given the job I applied for. This gave me further heartbreak.
'A very unlucky day. ' I thought.

I was too exhausted and my stomach growled and my head ached. I parked my bike near the pavement and sat on the bench which was actually the bus stand. I felt something was missing at that hour of day.
'Kara' the name crossed my mind.
I took out the phone from my pocket and texted my best friend.

Me: Hey Panda!
I used to call her panda as she has small height, her cheeks were cubby and her nose was round and adorable.

Me: Your bamboo wants to see ya.

She used to call me her bamboo as I was tall and slim and we both can't survive without each other.
I switched off the cellphone and drove back to the apartment.

.....

As I opened the apartment door I heard sounds of TV program going on.
'Looks like Tristan is home. '  I thought

I went straight to my room without acknowledging his presence in the lounge.
I took a shower and changed myself into green PJs.
'I hope this refreshing color will brighten up my mood or at least make me calm. ' I thought.

I was tired and didn't want to prepare food but my stomach was growling very badly. On the other hand, I need to stop my stupid brain for sending me signals that I was hungry.
I walked passed the lounge ignoring Tristan again. I didn't want to get into any conversation with anyone except Kara but unfortunately it wasn't my day.

As I started to spread peanut butter on bread I felt Tristan's gaze at my back. Soon his mouth opened and he said "Hi"
"Hi" I replied back in stern tone.

I started to see him from corner of my eye.
He was wearing red colored shirt on which Nike was imprinted in black.
He was in his shorts which perfectly matched his shirt.
'He has good taste of fashion. ' I realized.

"You can examine me from your hazel eyes rather than peeping from the corner." He said
"Excuse me?" I said harshly.

Understanding my rough attitude he said abruptly changing the topic "You should pay me to using my refrigerator."
I tried to speak softly "I'll do as soon as I found a job."

"I have another idea. You can cook food for me instead of paying and I'll help you with the groceries.
That will help me a lot." He said
Before I would say a word he started again "I'm sick of eating scrambled egg sandwich and coffee and fast food."

"Okay." I said agreeing to his idea.
"If you are hungry right now have butter and bread." I told him

"No I'm allergic to peanut butter." He said. "You can have it." He said smiling.

'He looked cuter when he smiled with his teeth little bit out. '

As soon as my sandwich was ready I took a bite and felt relieved. The peanut butter just melted inside my mouth and it was everything right now.
As soon as I finished enjoying my bite I lifted my face to see Tristan who was looking at me with his deep blue eyes continuously.
"Looks like you are very hungry." He said.
I felt a little embarrassed.
At the moment, my phone beeped telling me that I had a notification. I grabbed my phone from the counter and looked at the screen.

The message pinched me hard in my heart.

Panda: I can't come over tomorrow. A little busy Bella.

Again a notification popped on my screen.
Panda: will meet you on the weekend.

Today was Thursday and there were three days for Kara to come to me. I just needed a warm hug right now, one that Kara gives.

Tears started to fill my eyes and before the sea would fall, I nearly ran to my room and locked it.
My hunger was no more there and I didn't care what would Tristan think on my behaviour. I was just done with this day and everything seems so wrecked.
