One of the best habits I had was waking up early.
I would get so much done, and it wouldn't even be noon.
So that morning, I got ready as soon as i got out of bed. I showered and washed my hair. The hot water relaxed my muscles and burned my skin. I applied moisturizer and brushed my hair. Then I made my bed and continued unpacking my closet.
My stuff was mainly unpacked, but the bedroom needed a bit of a personal touch if I was staying here for two weeks. And honestly, I was starting to consider coming here more often, on vacations and holidays.
I really forgot how awesome it was to live here. I had barely gone to a few shops, but walking the familiar streets and seeing my best friends again filled me with nostalgia and happiness.
It was almost 11 o'clock when I finally got a text from Tina saying she's coming over for breakfast with Jake. I immediately respond and tell her to not bring anything since I will be making food.
I later hear knocks at the door while I'm whipping the waffle preparation.
- It's open!! I yell out.
When Jake and Tina walk in, a smile immediately spreads on my face.
- You're matching outfits today guys! I point out.
Jake and Tina look each other up and down in horror. Then they start bickering.
After a few minutes of deciding who's gonna go change, Jake finally gives up.
- Fine, he sighs dramatically while walking back out the door.
Tina raises her fist in victory and starts laughing.
- I still don't understand why you still do this, I say in a chuckle.
- I guess habits stick around, she shrugs.
- Stupid habits, I corrected. He looked great in that blouse, it's a shame you made him change.
- OH. MY. GOD. YOU THINK MY BROTHER'S CUTEEEEE !!!
Tina's freak out scared me so much that I forgot to react to what she even said.
- Beatrice.
She holds my confused self by the shoulders and solemnly says "I've waited for this moment my entire life."
- What?! I finally let out. Tina- no! I just thought it looked good on him. That's all!
"But come on, B! You're such a match and everyone knows it except both of you!"
I glare at her, still whipping.
"Fine, fine", she finally concedes. "I'll stop. For now."
She winks with a smirk, and I roll my eyes as a response.
It was at that moment that Jake enters the house in a white blouse and beige shorts.
And I gotta admit, he did look handsome.
