Soft blanket

4.15 pm, February 16th,
In Sophie's room


The sunlight starts piercing into her skin, and her dead body starts to gain consciousness again. The soft silk on her body starts revealing life again, as she tries to awaken herself. Birds already started to stop chirpin, it was late in the afternoon. Her arm started reaching out for her handphone on the bed, and with half eyed open she looked at the time. '4.15 pm'. She held herself up with her toned hands. Half her memory from yesterday was gone, the other half that never seem to fade still laid on her bedside table... pictures of Ken.

Right about then, her phone beeped. 'One message - 4.16pm'. She sat up and opened her message box. 'Hi babe, why never reply my call yesterday. Anyways...how are you? I miss you so. -John-'. Without hesitation, it was deleted in a split second and she carried herself with her long legs to the bathroom. Her mind still a blank.

The cold water trickles through her body, as she stood there still. Slowly she washed herself up, as her mind started to review the day ahead. Tomorrow is Chinese New Year eve, her mom would not be back til late tomorrow as she is spending the night at Uncle George and preparing dinner at his place tomorrow. She left a note at her door yesterday before she came back along with a red packet. All she is hoping for is her food on the table before she left. She closed the tap and walked out drippin' wet to search for her towel. Her body revealed to the room. The stash of cash from yesterday was still on the table, lying on her black dress. $1,400.

'I'm bringing Sexy Back ...yeahh~~!' her phoned ranged. "Hieeee, Sophie speakin" she hurriedly picked it up with her wet hands. "Good morning siiiiiiiis, you just woke up eh piggg" Zann spoked back laughin. "Yea la ... I'm still soaking wet wei..." she replied. "I saw Jayden online yesterday, don't know why he suddenly spoked to me. He said to pass you this message, he is coming back tomorrow" she laughed crazily again and continued "Happy leeee... prince Auzzie boy cannot wait". " Crazily la you" she smiled at the news. "Eh..I call you back later can? ... I'm wet la". "Okei, byeeeeee~" Zann said and the line cuts off.

She dried herself up in a hurry and put on a baby-T and her undies. She couldn't be bothered bout her dripping wet hair and hurried down the stairs. 'Yes!, there is food' she thought to herself and headed to the table'. As usual, it is cold but without thinking she took a chopstick and gobbled the fried mee hoon.
