Nicole woke up and stretched slowly as she sat up on her bed. She yawned and rubbed her eyes gently as she glanced around the room blankly for a few seconds, still half asleep and not fully functioning yet. She slid out of bed and entered the bathroom as she grabbed a towel on here way there and took a warm shower, but after about fifteen minutes or so she finished and entered her bedroom again, with the towel wraps around herself now. She walked up to the closet and opened it up. She stood there silently thinking about what she should wear. After about a minute or two she deicide to wear: a white tank top, light teal hoodie, dark black skinny jeans that were faded, and black ankle high boots with a small heal at the bottom.
After she brushed her hair, for it could be somewhat neat and not a mess of bed hair she went over to her pet snake, Seth, and feed him two cubby white mice with wet pink noses. She then walked out of her bedroom and entered the room her five year old brother was in. He had icy blue eyes, chocolate brown hair that was short like hers, also the same color as her eyes, and creamy skin. He stayed over for a few days since she was off from collage and work. Nicole walked up to him and woke him up gently as he mumbled something and rolled over onto his belly. “Alex, wake up today your going back home,” she told him gently as he sat up, pouting and frowning. She sighed and ruffled his hair. “Don’t frown I loved if you stayed a few more days or even forever, but I have to go back to work and go to those collage classes I have,” she told him and he gave her a quick hug then went into the bathroom, clearly disappointed he couldn’t stay any longer.
She sighed and entered the kitchen after leaving his room. Nicole made them both a bowel of cereal with a glass of orange juice. She sat down quietly and began to eat. After she finished she cleaned up and watched as Alex enter the kitchen and ate his breakfast she made for him. “Can I just stay one more day Nicky?” he asked walking over to her and hugging her tightly, when he finished his breakfast. She laughed slightly and looked down at him, while picking him up off the floor to hold him in her arms. “I’m sorry Alex, but I just can’t and you know I’ll take you out again or visit you as soon as I can,” she told gently. They called each other by there nick names, they gave each other, his real name was Alexandra, but she always called him Alex for short and he always called her Nicky for short also, instead of Nicole.
She held him for a few more minutes, but then soon put him down. “Come on lets get ready to leave,” she told him and put his dishes into the sink, washing them, and then putting them away quickly. She entered her room, put her duffle bag on, got her keys, cell phone, and then left her room walking outside. She called a taxi, then after a few minutes she and her brother got into the taxi. The driver dropped Alex off at her old house she use to live in before she moved and Nicole got dropped off at the pet shop she worked at it was called “Wildlife” and she loved working there, even though it always seemed she was the only one doing the work, but she didn’t really care or never complain because she much rather enjoy the company of animals than people.
She opened the shop then entered getting it ready for the customers that may come and even buy a pet or two or really just even look around. She sat down behind the register and took out her one of her collage books. After flipping threw a few pages she found the page she was on. Nicole then took her bookmark out and began to read quietly. Even though she was reading she was aware of what was happening around her, she always was.
