Chapter 4 - Gone

I woke up to an empty bed. As I predicted Alex was already gone to handle the cargo crisis. Sometimes the fact that he is a workaholic annoys me so much. I came down from the bed gently, still feeling a bit sore. I put on my cute, pink, fluffy, cat flip flops and padded to the bathroom. Opening the bathroom door I walked to the sink and stared at my reflection from the mirror. My lovely dark ebony hair looked like a nest bird nest on my head. I ran my fingers through my hair in an attempt to tame the forest that Alex had created in our love making session last night. Once I had managed to but my hair in a neat-ish bun, I picked up my toothbrush and began applying toothpaste on it. I brushed my teeth for 8 minutes and rinsed it with some mouth wash. Through with that, I walked straight into the bathtub and took a shower. The hot water on my back felt divine and I took some time to just savour the feeling. Using my scented oils of lavender and peppermint, I relished at their fragrance. I washed my hair with a rose scented shampoo and rinsed myself off completely. I took the big yellow towel that belonged to me and dried myself off. The towel was so soft. Putting on my bath rope I padded back to my bedroom and straight to my walk in closet. Today would be simple and easy so I put on a lovely yellow sundress with black socks and lovely yellow sandals. Satisfied with my dressing, I went down for breakfast.
