Another day now comes my way. Currently i'm sitting on the kitchen counter tapping my fingers against the cold bowl of cereal that lie in my palms. I shift the bowl onto one hand as I grab the spoon and take another bite of the crisp golden flakes that crumble in my mouth. I hear footsteps linger down the stairs. I quickly jump off the counter and lean against it, not wanting to upset my groggy mother. She walks by me grabbing her purse and car keys then heads to the door. Before she leaves she gives a slight wave toward my direction then shuts the door behind her. I shrug and jump back onto the kitchen counter. The cold granite hits my hands once more sending a slight chill to run through my body.
I soon finish my breakfast and lay the bowl and spoon in the sink. I look up to the stove clock and notice that I still have about twenty minutes until I should start my journey to school. For managing my time this morning, I gave myself a small smile and grabbed my backpack to take the long way to school.
Slipping the other sling onto my second shoulder I opened the door and stepped out inhaling the fresh morning breeze. Turning around, I lock the door and start my journey onward.
Walking through the forest, I figured to play some tunes. Pulling out my phone, I press shuffle on my favorite playlist and kept the volume at a low. I slide my phone back into my creamy white sweatshirt pocket. I stop and glance around admiring the scenery. "Not a lot of times I can come out here during morning hours. Usually i'm in such a hurry in the morning," I chuckled to myself. Starting to walk again, my vision starts to blur. I frantically find a place to sit. "Oh come on! Please not now! Right when i'm enjoying something..." I complained to myself under my breath. I sit down under a tree and breathe slowly hoping for it to go away. But of course, it just doesn't.
