"Shut uuuup." I groaned at my phone's alarm. I opened my eyes slightly and swiped the phone, making the dreadful noise cease.

I closed my eyes and turned around for what felt like a few seconds, only to hear the dreadful noise resume.

"Fine, I'm up- you happy?" I shot at the phone, swiping up on the phone screen aggressively.

I got out of bed and ran my hand through my hair.

Topshop was meant to be interviewing me today.

I looked at the clock to see it was 5am. The perfect time for me to complain about how early it is, but also go get ready for my interview at 7am.

I started my day by walking into the kitchen and picking up a mug, making some coffee with excess sugar inside it.

I picked that up and drank it slowly whilst scrolling through my Instagram main feed, and watching a few short TikToks.

I then went back into my room, used the bathroom, took a shower, and started doing makeup.

My makeup didn't turn out as spectacularly as yesterday's, but it still sufficed. I had done the exact same makeup, but accidentally went slightly overboard with the bronzer, and my brows had a few small differences. Either way- any normal person who would look at my face wouldn't find any flaws.

I then put on a black, long-sleeve dress made of the sort of 'business material' you would expect, pairing it with a salmon blazer. I took out a pair of silk, baby pink stilettos from my wardrobe, praying they were the same shade as the blazer. I put the stilettos on, and silently celebrated when they matched... And were so comfortable for their frightening height. 

I then brushed my hair out, feeling no need to curl it or anything, since it was still textured from yesterday.

I finished my outfit by clipping a simple silver necklace around my neck, putting on matching silver bracelets.

I put some of my belongings into the same bag as yesterday, before looking at the clock.

6:10.

Coincidentally, I heard a knock at the door.

I waltzed out of the door, slapping a pre-written sticky-note on the door explaining to Ethan that I would be outside, for the day, before opening the door to Tobi's friendly face.

"You ready to style on them hoes?" Tobi exclaimed.

"Tobi, for God's sake." I laughed, pushing him slightly as I closed the door behind me.

"I'm sorry, I had to." Tobi laughed. "Anyways, you ready to go?"

"Yep." I nodded.

...

I felt my phone buzzing in my pocket midway through the drive. I picked it up to see a new WhatsApp message.
