The shrill sounds of my phone alarm jolted me out of my much needed sleep, accompanied by the vibration from somewhere near my pillow. Bleary eyes along with unspectacled vision, I groped around blindly in the darkness, finding the cause of my interrupted forty winks. The light blinded my eyes as I picked up the source of my irritation early in the morning. It is time to start another long day.
Shuffling my feet out of my safe haven, I called out to my furry companion, who too, begrudgingly removed himself from the floor and came towards the door. After a few warm hugs, and mumbled good mornings, we left the house for a walk.
The chilly winds blew and greeted us, sending chills and messing up my unclipped hair. It was a cold and breezy morning, after the heavy downpour the night before. A lone jogger runs pass us. It is still too early for me to function. I don't understand why would one wake up early on a Sunday morning. Side by side, we set off on a slow walk, stopping every now and then to sniff the grass and trees.
A euphonious harmony of sounds could be heard, making this particular morning alive. The light foot steps of a runner and the squishy sounds of my slippers at half its' time as it slaps against the wet concrete pavement. Cheery birds chirping, in contrast to the dreary morning, were hopping in the grass, greeting the few people who are out and about. The sound of a kettle whistling, and the clink clanks of stirring teaspoons in coffee mugs could be heard in a distance. My stomach rumbles, I haven't eaten my breakfast.
A warm cup of earl grey tea and biscuits carefully balanced in my other hand as I settled at the table to have my breakfast. My fellow furry companion sits by my feet, looking earnestly for biscuits, pawing my feet every minute or so. Having 'accidently' dropping some bits and pieces, the 'evidence' was cleared within seconds.
Another day has begun.
*Side note:
I haven't written something as descriptive in awhile, it's kind of unfamiliar. Looking back at my previous posts, I realised I have the tendency to write in short stanzas and sentences. Trying to write differently in this post, about something more trivial. Life has been pretty stagnant lately, there isn't much to whine about. Anyways, this happened one Sunday morning, but I left it till now to write it out.
