Chapter 1 intimidating (I)

Assier.

5:30 am

A strange and thunderous noise began to bring me back from that wonderful world of dreams and from the beloved arms of Morpheus, even with my eyes closed and with the inconvenience of getting my cell phone, I searched as best I could under my pillows cursing at what down when I couldn't find the blessed device of the devil that wouldn't stop beeping and telling me it was time to get up, I opened one of my eyes and pressed postpone, I threw the phone aside and went back to sleep.

I don't know how long I stayed asleep until the noise woke me up again, this time cursing and screaming I took the fucking mobile and told him angrily   

 - Yes, if I already understood damn, it's time to get up

I turned off the alarm without paying much attention, but when I looked at the time, all the laziness and sleep that remained in my body completely vanished. It was 6:45 am, my alarm had been going off for 45 minutes and I didn't notice it, I I was late. Damn that was not a good day for that to happen, I got up like a soul to hell and opened the door to my room which for a change locked again, I cursed again under my breath and managed to open it and then collide with a radiant light that blinded me            

— But bless God! Who said that the Sun would have to shine so brightly and so early?   

A loud laughter sounded at the end of the corridor responding to my hateful morning exclamation, I walked like a zombie towards where I had heard the laughter and Dani's charming voice greeted me.        

— Good morning vampire, how are you? your cell phone has been ringing for hours

I glared at my best friend who gave me a charming and perfect smile back.     

"Yes, yes, good morning... why didn't you call me Dani?" I answered in a huffy and hoarse voice.

 She took another sip from her steaming cup of coffee and simply shrugged and replied 

"I thought you had it all under control." I glared at her and continued to our other best friend's coffee maker.

I took a cup from one of the cabinets and poured myself the steaming and delicious nectar of life, which ultimately cheered up each and every one of my mornings, as soon as the liquid touched my lips, the typical little color of the rich mornings of my life body warm.

After taking a moment to feel the effect of the heat that was gradually returning to my body, I sighed and then decided to answer Dani.

—Ha, ha, ha, you're supposed to be my best friend, right? In any case, what are you doing so dressed up on a Tuesday morning?

Dani looked at me feigning a bit of surprise at my sweet comment about our friendship and answered me with that sweet and charming smile that she dedicated to each and every one of her patients.  

—Baby, I'm the best friend in the whole world, I assure you, but entering that underworld that you have for a room on such a special and important day for me would be simply depressing and not darling, I need all the light that you hate so much for the mornings.” His voice sounded so sweet and so cloying that I couldn't help but roll my eyes.

She also emphasized that "such a special day" that suddenly I realized my mistake, I ran to her and wrapped her in a big hug and in the sweetest way that my hateful morning voice was able to create I told her

 "Oh Dani, friend... I... I'm sorry, okay?" I completely forgot about it, with yesterday's outing and today's interview, I completely forgot, aaaffff what a horrible friend I am, can you forgive me? Dani wrapped her arms around me and looked at me with feigned hatred and then burst out laughing, kissed me on the cheek and said

—Silly, go fix it so you're super late for your interview and look, this is super important, and please do something with your hair and those dark circles, yes? you're fatal friend —when I separated from her I smiled at her and winked at me, she took a sip from her cup and got up to pick up her things and leave, I saw her walk towards the door of the apartment super beautiful as only she could be a Tuesday at 6:45 in the morning and yelled at him

"Success Harley Quinn, I hope that no Joker falls in love with you and tries to kill us." I turned abruptly and stuck out my middle finger doing that obscene and well-known offense, I started to laugh and while she closed the door behind her and left me alone in the corridor, exclaim 

"Shit, I'll be late." I ran back down the hall towards the bathroom.

Where I quickly took off my sexy avengers pajamas and jumped into the shower, today of course there would be no long lazy hot bath, today it was time to fuck off and endure the cold water, wash my hair and body quickly, I was careful when pass my hands over my forearm since there was my new and dazzling tattoo, an exclamation that I always used and that life had taken care of showing me that it was very, very true "life balances itself" I contemplated it with pride and smiled, then that voice in my head urged me

—Keep looking at it with the face of an idiot that just that blessed ink paid the bills.

I moved my head to warn myself and got out of the shower, I ran back to my room which I found of course dark as if it were a cave at midnight, I smiled to myself and reminded myself to open the curtains before leaving so that Dani didn't suffer so much from my supposed obsession with sleeping in a room as dark as the night itself.

I groped for the switch and finally the light filled the space, I ran to the closet I looked for some black skinny jeans, a very light and fresh three-quarter sleeve ivory blouse, I looked among my shoes for some black stiletto heels I put them on and I looked in the mirror.

It was an important interview, perhaps the most important in my entire career as a Graphic Designer and it had to be perfect, but when I looked in the mirror I realized that no matter how hard I tried to go just as Dani had recommended, because according to her that way with heels looked perfect on me.

But I rethought it, throw my heels aside and look for my black converse, I looked at myself in the mirror again and that's it now if I was perfect. I took my makeup and I did the usual, I outlined my eyes with a black eyeliner, I applied mascara to my lashes, a little blush on my cheeks, I took a very light lipstick and applied it to my lips, I looked at myself a little more inspecting if it was really enough with that and I said to myself.

"You're here to be hired and promoted, all in the same day," that little voice in my head laughed loudly and answered me.

"Not in your wildest dreams babe," and I just ignored her.

I took the black scarf that I liked so much to fit around my neck, my black leather jacket, my sunglasses, my bag and when I was about to go out, I hadn't done any miracles with my hair yet, I threw everything in the floor and I looked at myself in the mirror again, because there wasn't much to do, my long hair with black curls wasn't going to help that morning and much less wet as it was, I would either braid it in the car before I got out or just put my hair in a ponytail. 

I picked up everything from the floor again, and went out to the corridor and when I was about to leave I remembered that the mobile had been somewhere diving between my pillows, I cursed again and ran to my room, threw the pillows on the floor looking for the devilish device and Nothing, I haven't seen it anywhere.

When the bastard has to make a scandal, he doesn't do it , I thought.

Finally more stressed with each passing minute I pulled the sheets hard and the phone fell to the floor I took it, put it in the back pocket of my pants and walked towards the door. At that moment I remembered Dani's annoying voice screaming in my head, constantly reminding me to open the fucking curtains, I ran back to my bed, climbed as best I could on top of it and with a single pull pulled the curtains that went to the other end of the room. the wall and a strong light dazzled my eyes, I cursed the creation of the sun again and ran out of my room leaving it a complete mess but with the curtains open that was the important thing.

I ran down the stairs because there was no time to wait for the fucking elevator that took forever, luckily it was only 2 floors, I reached the entrance of the building and blinked when the sun hurt my eyes again. 

-Damn sun! I exclaimed.

I put on my glasses and ran back to the car, opened my bag and began to rummage through the million things that I had inside and that I hadn't bothered to take out the night before, I hated myself for not being a little more orderly in my life.

I sighed trying to calm down, when I realized that in that fucking state I wouldn't get the keys not even because they had a neon sign pointing them, I closed my eyes, took a deep breath and now a little calmer I continued looking for them, finally I located them at the bottom of the bag, I opened I put my stuff in the backseat of the car and got in, adjusted everything and sped out of the parking lot like I was stealing it.
