5:31 am – that was what my watch said. I found myself lying on the floor. I must have fallen from the bed.
“Darn it!” I exclaimed, but I was laughing at myself.
I stood up like a drunken old man, either fuzzy from my forgotten dream or my awful fall. I turned around to face the bathroom. I sauntered forward and paused at the doorway. I struggled with my feet and my sluggish body towards the mirror and looked at my reflection. My thoughts stuttered – I simply cannot describe myself! My hair was completely messy, I had these mysterious black eyes, and my face looked severely stressed!
“Who is this monster!?” I said to myself.
After washing my face a couple of times, I was unexpectedly confused whether I would already shower or eat breakfast first. Unexpectedly too, I showered, and I soaped myself before I shampooed my hair. I had my breakfast when I finished and got in the car afterwards.
“You’re early,” said my dad with no expression, but I can see that he felt content.
I smiled, knowing that I have pleased my father at least once in a week. Roads, traffic lights, people…I’ve seen them like everyday, but I found myself entertained. It was so unusual and weird.
Finally, I stepped out the car and fell. I heard my dad’s sound of surprise from the driver’s seat but I didn’t mind. I simply looked at my watch.
“Great!” I said. “I’m not late!’
