I stare at my horrible reflection in the mirror.. Last night was stressful,I left work late.. And now,I've got school in a few minutes.. Something tells me I'm gonna fall apart anytime from now...
I lazily get my toothbrush,I start brushing with the little strength in me.. Honestly,I want this day to go by smoothly,I don't think my body can handle stress today or I'll break down or explode.. Whatever ..
I get into the shower and I have my bath.. I slip into a blue shirt with a pair of denim jeans with my shoes.. I walk downstairs and I sit on the couch..
"Breakfast!" Mom yells startling my already tired mind..
It's just the beginning of the day and I'm like this.
I walk to the dining table..
"Morning,mom" I say
"Morning. You okay?" She asks me setting my toast in front of me
"Nope.. Not one bit.. I'm tired"
"Are you sure you wanna go to school today? Or even work?" She asks concerned
"Of course.. I mean a day missing at work is a deduction from my salary" I reply biting into my food
"I can talk to Mrs Lambert"
"Don't do that,mom.. I'll be fine"
"Ok.. If you say so.. Anyways,your dad is flying back today" she shrugs
"How many weeks has it been?" I ask
"Three"
"Okay.." I say
I eat my food till my plate is empty,I get up and I walk to my bag..
"Bye,mom" I say
"Bye!" She replies

"Morning,Jessy" a voice says dragging me out of my dose ..
"Hey.. Morning" I greet pulling my head out of my locker.. It's Amanda..
"What's wrong? You're standing in the hallway with your head in your locker,asleep"
"I'm just tired" I shrug
"Sorry.. Let's get to class"
*,*,*,*,*
Lectures were boring,ughhh.. Work..
I say goodbye to Amanda and I jump into the car,driving to work....
I start taking orders,Nathan on the other hand came here a few minutes ago and he has ordered a medium espresso.. I can't wait for my shift to be over.. I'm so exhausted..
Kate walks up to me..
"Hey" she smiles
"Hey,Kate" I say yawning
"You okay?"
"Yah.. I am,what's up?"
"Um. Nathan said I should ask you if you brought your car"
"Yes,I did.. Why?" I ask confused
She shrugs
"Why didn't he ask me himself?"
"Cause you're working,silly" she replies
I shrug,not in the mood for this..
My phone rings and I tell Kate to hold on..
"Hey mom" I say
She sounds devastated and she's gasping..
"Mom...mom.. You're scaring me,what's wrong?"
The news she gives me makes my phone drop to the floor..
Kate picks it up..
"What's wrong,Jessy?"
I take the phone from her.
