Ausha opened her eyes on bright and sunny morning and grumbled.... "I don't wanna go to work!!" She groaned into her pillow then closed her eyes again. Her cat, Winifred, jumped onto the bed and began to claw the blankets, meowing for food and attention. "Winny, dear, mommy is having a moment." Ausha said opening one eye to look at her orange kitty.
Winifred's tilted to the side and she gave another meow. Ausha rolled her eyes and stroked the cat's head as she got up. Her long brunette hair fell to the small of her back. It was curly but not poodle curly. A nice, natural wave, if you will. She rubbed her eyes and looked at the time. With another groan she went into the kitchen and poured some food into Winney's bowl. "Come on, Ms. Demanding." Ausha shouted for the cat. She walked back into the bedroom to see Winney on her bed.
"You little..." She growled and shooed the cat away. She walked into the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. Her green eyes had dark circles under them due to the week of no sleep she had been having. She worked for a law firm as an assistant, but she had projects to do as well as all the lawyers, which explained her lack of sleep. With a sigh, she turned on the shower and undressed, hoping the warm water would wake her up.
Stepping into the shower she was defiantly woken up by a surprisingly cold shock. She screeched and jumped out of the shower. She played with the hot and cold knobs but the water still stayed freezing. "Really? REALLY?" Ausha pulled a towel around her body and grabbed the phone to call her landlord. "Hey, Terry, it's Ausha... again. Um, the hot water doesn't seem to be working, and I know I sent the money in for this month. If you could stop by and take a look, that would be great. Thanks so much." She hung up. " Good for nothing... He probably didn't pay his half of the bill."
Skipping the shower Ausha went into the bedroom and got dressed in her usual business casual attire. She grabbed her purse and keys and headed out the door after kissing Winney's head goodbye.
