A whole new life

Three

After a long day you finally pull up outside your house grabbing your bag making sure that your phone and pay hasn’t fallen out of your bag during the drive home with everything in your bag you took the keys closing the door walking to your front door locking the car as you took the key to open the door.

Closing the door with your foot turning to lock it before walking to the kitchen placing your hand bag down on the counter top you started preparing for dinner “hmmm chicken and salad” you spoke out loud to yourself like you normally do you don’t admit and you wont but you get lonely so you’ve been thinking of getting a pet but your not sure what pet to get as you made dinner you thought about pulling you videos and pictures on your phone to help pass the time but also help make a decision.

You looked at getting a puppy but you need a place with a garden, a kitten but what breed a fish tank maybe but having to clean it out with your busy schedule it was something you’d really have to think about but for the mean time you was going to get some plants if was something you’d always wanted to do so tomorrow its one of your days off so you thought that’s what you’d go and do get a little bit more information about what pet to get and also get some plants for you to take care of.

Once the chicken was done you cut it up placing it on the plate with the salad on the side talking your dinner into the living room you sat down on the sofa placing your plate on the coffee table taking the remote turning the tv on putting on Disney + picking one of the new films on there you ate your dinner watching the film you laughed at some parts and cried at others after you ate your dinner you paused the film going back into the kitchen placing the plate into the sink along with the chopping board the knife and the pan taking a glass you poured in orange & pineapple with some ice cubes also getting a spoon with some ice cream going back into the living room getting comfortable on the sofa pressing play watching the rest of the film as you ate some ice cream.

After an other hour of watching Disney + you turned it off walking into the kitchen placing the ice cream back in the freezer then going to do the dishes taking everything out of the sink you put the plug in turning the tap on letting the sink fill half way with hot water you also putting in washing up liquid turning the tap off you added some cold water so you don’t burn your hands in the hot water making sure the water isn’t to hot you took the pots putting them in the sink you washed the knife first so you don’t cut yourself after a few minutes you put the pots on one side to dry as you wiped the worktops down before unplugging the sink letting the water drain making sure everything is turned off and the door is locked you went to your room closing the door behind you walking into the bathroom you brushed your hair putting it up in a bun.

Then you brushed your teeth along with your nighttime skincare routine before walking back into your bedroom and getting in bed you put your phone on charge before going to bed.

The next day,

Having the day you thought about going into work seeing if they’ll let me put up a flyer for a roommate getting out of bed walking downstairs into the kitchen where my flyers are giving them one last glance over.

I grabbed a glass from the cupboard opening the fridge grabbing the fresh orange juice you poured yourself a drink putting it back in the fridge. Going into the laundry room taking a load out of the dryer then putting in another load. Looking through my cleaning supplies you took a pen and piece of paper writing a list of what needs topping up.

Its mainly the scent boosters going back upstairs looking for an outfit you picked a cropped top and shorts and flats grabbing the keys, phone & flyers turning off all the lights unlocking the front door. Walking into the heat its.. well good outfit choice locking the door you walked to the local coffee shop your manager “good morning isn’t it your day off” you “yeah it is I was wondering if I could put up a flyer on the board”.

Your manager “sure why not, what’s it for” you “I’ve moved into a new house I have room and I’d like someone to talk to” you handed over the flyer the manager “damm good deal, 200 a month” you “only if I have two roommates” your manager “help clean and help with groceries” you “great thank you for letting me put it up here, I’ll hop in later to see if anyone’s asked”.

The manager “see you later” saying bye you left going to the park to enjoy the sun checking your phone. No messages for babysitting so you have tonight off putting your phone away you caught someone out the corner of your eye.

“s**t” it was your ex with Heather, great standing up you went for a walk trying to avoid them like the plague luckily you managed to escape and not be seen by them going back to the cafe to hide out your manager “woah that’s quick”.

You “can I hide out in here for awhile” your manager “yeah sure but why” you “you know that jackass I used to date” your manager “yes i do the cheater” you “well he’s at the park with the girl he cheated on me with, which happens to be one of my bullies”. Your manager “wow what a jackass, you can hide here” you “thanks can I do anything” your manager looked around when she smiled.

“Well remember those cookies you made..” you “yeah the chocolate chip ones” your manager “they were to die for” you “want me to make some” she smiled before serving another customer. 20 minutes later, “tada I present cookies where do you want me to put them” a customer “they smell amazing” you “thank you”.

Your manager “on here” placing them down “I’ll be going into the back if you need me”.
