Her hands and legs felt the velvet fabric underneath them, causing her to roll over. Groaning, she refused to wake up. Sure, it was Monday, but who wanted to work in a Monday? Nobody, that's who. Unfortunately she needed the money, and Lora forced herself to sit up. Rubbing her eyes, the sound of the radio caused her to turn. Her friend, Liza, was listening the news.
The teen stood up and changed, brushing her hair while doing so. As she did this, Liza changed the station to see if anything good was on. Unfortunately there was nothing.
"What time is it?" Lora mumbled, putting on her clips and fixing her shoes. Her friend checked the time.
"Noon." The blondie sighed, seeing as how she didn't have time to stop by a restaurant and get a quick meal. In a hurry, she rushed out and didn't bother to say anything to her friend. Jumping on her bike, she was surprised to see people already outside.
"Great," she mumbled. She takes out a piece of gum, throws it into her mouth, fixes her hair, and starts racing down the street. Avoiding every obstacle in sight, she started to think about what she might be doing today. Last time she was handing out yellow phone books, and hasn't finished... so perhaps that would be her task now? Whatever it is, she hopes to meet somebody new. Then again, she's said that for the last few months and nothing good has ever happened. Nobody bothers to leave their house and tell her "hi!" or any of the sort. Of course she may reply back with a simple wave and that's it, but at least she'll remember the person and thank them later on for giving her the attention nobody else ever does.
Ten minutes had passed by the time she had reached work. It was the same routine after that; talk to the workers, get her task of the day from the boss' assistant, and leave the place filled with bags of books or mail. Just as she thought, she had to finish delivering all the yellow phone books. Nobody ever uses them, or so she thinks, but who knows? As long as she's not forced to read them, she can't really hate on them... or can she?
Sitting on her bike, she heard the sound of birds flying around her. Surprised, she looked up and saw two pigeons flying side by side. For the first time in days, she burst into a smile. Watching them fly away, her heart felt a warm surge of happiness sink in. "Made my day, gladly." Filled with joy, she proceeded to rush out of her workplace and go for the first house, delivering packages and phone books.
