Waking up in a house, where you don't feel oppressed, there are no aggressions and no people who look at you like an unpleasant bug, is the best feeling in the world, and today is that wonderful day. The sun beating down on my face, brought such a nice feeling, as if its warmth was hugging me and inviting me to be by your side, like a warm hug, the only one I could remember was Susan's hugs, her strawberry pie smell and her lavender scented perfume made me feel welcome.
I got up feeling totally energized, as I had never felt before, even though I had worked a lot yesterday, and today continuing with my housework, it wasn't even enough to make me sad. I went to the bathroom to take a nice cold shower, just to get my body as lazy as my mind was. As soon as I woke up my body, I went out wearing a baggy outfit, a pair of jeans and a purple and pink floral blouse that was very loose on me, it would be great for another day of organizing and cleaning, already feeling a little warm in the morning I tied my long hair in a ponytail.I arrived in my kitchen, still messy, opening space on the countertop and managed to use the coffee maker, I wanted it strong enough to be able to stand the morning, I took some of the cookies that Flora brought me yesterday, which were still wonderful, with an excellent flavor, it seems I had never eaten such tasty cookies in my life. I went to the front porch and bent down to sit on the two steps there to start my coffee, I know it doesn't seem very normal this kind of attitude especially in a place where people look elegant, but who really cared about that? This was now my home, my little world and that was all that mattered, just being comfortable was enough for me.The day was so beautiful that even the street was beautiful with the sun beating on the entrance of the houses, some birds singing in trees nearby left everything in harmony, I took my cup of coffee fresh to my mouth, the strong taste of coffee passed by my tongue, the feeling of the liquid down the throat was amazing and automatically felt more alert, everything was warm inside my body, I let out a groan of satisfaction, I loved to drink coffee in the morning. While sitting down I started to notice the houses around me mainly the one in front of me that had two floors, but apparently only one person lived there or I could be wrong and the neighbors just had not woken up yet, but I had not seen much movement since the day before I arrived, so the first assumption could be the most correct, but they could be traveling, well who knows? That was not even my business, I finished my coffee, I was ready to start arranging the furniture, then decided to start by the small dishes that had dirty, turned on the water feeling it cold in my warm hands, took the sponge, but suddenly the sink began to make strange noises as if it was choking, I do not know for sure were loud and in short intervals, not to mention the sudden movement it made as if it forced the water out, I began to despair trying to turn it off but the metal crosshead of the faucet had jammed and would not turn until a jet of water came to my face, then I was taken by despair after all the floor of my house was wood could be damaged if it got that wet, I tried my best to cover the water with my hands to be able to at least see, I didn't know how to make that strong jet stop, the tap was no longer in the same place, apparently it had fallen with pressure, water was splashing everywhere and wetting the entire floor of the kitchen, I saw a pot, without thinking much I decided to take it and cover where the faucet once was, I took Flora's tray and followed almost running to her house next door, three knocks were necessary for her to come to me, when she looked at my state it was clear her astonishment, probably looking like she had dived into a pool.- Miss! What happened to you, look at your state! - I said with my hands over my mouth.- My faucet exploded! Do you know who can fix it, please! My floor got all wet. - I shot up, clutching the tray in my hands just remembering the scene.- Ethan can fix it, he's very good at it! - I said, holding back a giggle.- Flora is laughing at what, I'm serious, it exploded, take your tray! Who's Ethan? - I frowned, hurrying to find this Ethan guy.- Your front-door neighbor, Ah! Ah! Sorry honey, but you're too funny, Ah! Ah! Ah!- I get it, but wait, he won't think it's bad, will he? - I asked when I realized that it was my front neighbor, whom I had not seen yesterday, and I also remembered his behavior.- Go no, he is very kind, but he is a little different! So don't be scared. - I said, making an attempt to situate that fact.- Different? How different? - I felt rejected that she had spoken this way, after all, if you think about it, he was watching through the window."He wouldn't be a psychopath, right? I guess I should be on my own. I felt pressured and the thought of letting it go was inevitable."- It's okay honey, he's not crazy, you'll understand when you see him, it's just that some people tend to get uncomfortable in front of you! - He emphasized. - Okay, so I have to go or that pan will fly, and then it won't just be the sink that I'll have to fix. - I said turning around and crossing the street.- Okay then, ah! Ah! Ah! It exploded, I've never seen this, these young people have a lot of creativity! - I could still hear their laughter and their comment.- Argh! That woman! Who ever heard of laughing at a situation like this! - I rolled my eyes and went to the entrance of the house that I had noticed that morning, a simple garden with few flowers, but they were all well taken care of and welcomed me.I stopped in front of the door, looked back remembering my sink gushing water like a waterfall, I wanted to give up and try to fix it myself but the big problem was that I didn't even know where to start, I won't deny I was nervous, I wasn't sure whether to leave my sink like that or get out of an embarrassing situation, but there was no other way, I took a deep breath, gathered all the courage I had, even if it wasn't much, knocked three times shyly on the door and waited patiently."What were you thinking! I don't even know the guy and I'm already going to ask a favor! He's going to feel uncomfortable, I'm sure," I thought to myself.I was about to turn around when I was surprised by the door being opened, and a man so tall he stood in front of me that I had to back up a few steps and raise my head a little but, and only two things that caught my attention the first thing I saw was his beautiful hair seemed so soft that I wanted to caress him, and the second was his deep and intense eyes were like the starry night, I could not catch my breath that had held, his symmetrical face contained strong features, thick eyebrows and a lip so well drawn, it was beautiful totally different from the men I knew, I got lost in some marks on his face, they were some scars that some day caused him problems, now they were nothing but deep marks, forcing his beautiful face to look strict and angry, even if it was not on purpose, noticing that if I didn't say anything it would make that first meeting strange, I gathered all the courage I could find and got ready to explain the whole situation. - Good morning sir, sorry to bother you.
I was buying some things that I needed however the money was not so good and was not enough for almost anything, since in addition to rent came along the bills for water, electricity and gas daily needs not to mention everything was so expensive and as I was a minor the owner of the cafeteria took the opportunity to pay me below minimum wage, Luckily I got another job as a helper in a stationery store, after working two jobs and saving money I was able to pay for my college, I won a scholarship that covered half my expenses with the help of a program for needy young people, the scholarships were only awarded to those who got the highest score among the students and the score that the program required, it was difficult, almost impossible, since they complain a lot that only a few people could get it, I studied hard to win the scholarship, and not only that but in college I had to study twice as hard to get one of the places as an apprentice in the atelier, with two other people, among s
Today will be my first day at Draven Leblanc's atelier, I'm so excited, I couldn't even close my eyes most of the night, it was really a dream, to be able to work in the area I dominated and not to mention that it was my favorite hobby, I got up before the alarm clock, got ready with the best clothes I could find in my small closet, I prepared my coffee and as soon as I was drinking it I grabbed my cell phone to call Mr. Joseph, since he assured me that I could call him, it would be easier for me to find the studio, it might be crazy, but I had never even visited the city and I didn't know where the market was if I hadn't asked Ethan - Hello! - I heard Mr. Joseph's voice on the other end. - Hi Mr. Joseph, this is Ayanne, you gave me your number two days ago. - I explained as I took a sip of my coffee. - Oh, yes, of course I remember you, how can I help you? - She asked, looking a little happier. - Well I'm going to work today, but there is a small problem, I'm not sure where the ar
- Yes, you didn't! - I spoke up in shock and turned to look behind me, seeing the man who was busy on the phone talking to me. - Did you like it? - I wasn't sure what his look meant at that moment, or if he was upset that I entered without greeting him, but he still had a slight smile on his face. - I apologize if I startled you. - He looked at me intently and at that moment his gaze became attentive. - No, I apologize. I came in quietly, not wanting to disturb you. - I said embarrassed. - I guess it's hard not to notice you coming into my humble studio. - I hoped that my blush hadn't become apparent at that moment, because I felt my face heating up, I looked at the paintings in front of me trying to disguise my embarrassment. - Yes, I loved it, the paintings are beautiful and show a lot of feeling. - I tried to cut the mood. - Sorry, I didn't even introduce myself, my name is Ayanne Reese. - I held out my mother, and he held her gently and kissed her, making me very embarrassed.
That morning, I woke up at the same time, with the sun beating on my face, and warming it up, unfortunately the day had already arrived, and I was not enjoying it. I got up, took a deep breath and went to my shower, looked at myself in the mirror seeing my tired image, my moss green eyes had deep dark circles under their eyes, denouncing my bad night's sleep, my light brown wavy hair was terribly messed up, from the several hours of tossing and turning trying to sleep. I got under the shower to get rid of that dead image and wake up, untangle my long unruly strands as I liked to call them, took a nice cold shower, got out wrapped in the towel ready to choose any outfit, I went to my closet seeing already a flowered straps dress in various shades of blue was round and hit the half of my thigh, light and cozy. I took it and laid it on my bed, moisturized my body with a rose and cherry cream, I loved this cream, its smell was so soft. I combed my hair and let it loose, put on some light
Loneliness, for many, is synonymous of emptiness, the dark, of a deadly silence, where there is nothing and no one. The loneliness for many is unpleasant, cold, suffocating, but not in my case, the loneliness for me, brought me comfort, peace where for many it would be a storm. But why? Do I think like this? When did this start? I have no answer, but I know something that is related. Should love be a choice? Should a mother's love be a choice? If a mother wanted her child, carried it for nine months and still loves it, why did mine choose not to love me, but to erase me from her life, simply discarding me, like garbage which could be thrown into a shredder and nobody would miss me, maybe I should be angry, but no, these people would not have any kind of feeling from me, I would never give this taste, the marks on my body? I am constantly reminded of this already, every moment reminding me that I am a monster, reminding me that those who should love me, have simply turned me into a frea
Compared to the fiasco that had been our breakfast, amazingly enough when we saw each other at work Draven seemed completely different when he saw me he was very gentlemanly and recognized that he had talked a lot and only when he got home he realized that we had not talked properly, I will not deny that his attitude made me very happy, and so he promised me a more inviting lunch promising to behave properly which in fact was quite funny when he said that, and here we are sitting in a small restaurant with a much more fluid and pleasant conversation. - But tell me, what did you do before you moved to this small town? - He asked, smiling. - Well, I was a waitress in a diner near the college. - I replied, annoyed by this subject. - I understand why you chose Snow College? - He said, referring to the nickname given affectionately by the students. - Well, I thought it was better to go there, because it was the college where my parents met. - It wasn't totally untrue that my adoptive p
Flora cut the cake while I went to make an orange and beet juice to refresh that hot day, it was totally natural except for the industrialized sugar, but it contained a lot of vitamin for the body, and that was what I needed the most at that moment, I put some ice cubes and put two glasses on the counter and took a smaller purple plastic glass to Megan not for fear of breaking the glass one, but for the little girl to feel more comfortable in taking the juice and holding a lighter glass in her hands. I went back to the counter and waited for Flora to put Megan's piece on the plate, and only then I could serve myself. - Did you manage to fix the faucet? - Flora, my neighbor, asked after sitting down in front of me, taking a piece of the wonderful dessert she had made. - Yes, everything worked out in the end, Mr. Black is great with these things, I didn't even have to buy another one. - I said, remembering that I didn't really change the faucet. "Will it be a problem if I leave it as
