Chapter 53 - "Aqua"

.................................

Perkins got up and stood at the bathroom door, looking at its space and wondering if this idea would work. He looked back at a picture on his phone and up at the space in front of him again, and then looking back at the phone.

"Wont know unless a try...'' he muttered to himself, going for some of his tools and equipment.

So the man began working. He took a tall grey tub and placed over the shower, turning on the shower and filling it up with water. He took the bin filled with water and placed it to the extreme end of the bathroom, in front of a cupboard foot that stood against the wall.

He got a thin plank of wood and his drill, drilling the edge of the plank to the cupboard that stood on the ground, placing the water filled bucket underneath it.

"Meeoow" the cat came rubbing against him as he worked and he bent down to rub the cat's head, stopping for five minutes.

"Let's go get you something to eat kitty cat To-mas" he said, going into the kitchen and opening a cat food, filling up the cat's tin. To-mas went over it and began eating away. He rubbed the cat's head again and went back to the bathroom, to finish his work.

He turned and went back in his bathroom and got a few sheets of paper and some tape, shaping the paper into a channel and taping it to the edge of the plank, that was over the water filled tub. The man stood back and looked at it now, taking in everything. The tub filled with water, the plank with the paper strapped to it to make a channel, everything was complete, just how he saw it on the picture of his phone.

"Okay now for the finishing touches" he said, going to the kitchen. He opened the cupboard above his head and took out a bottle of oil and then, went to the bottom and opened the fridge.

He could hear his stomach growling, making noises that indicated that his body needed food.

His eyes glanced past a piece of Cheese at the corner of the fridge, still wrapped up with plastic. He took a piece of it and nudged it in his mouth, chewing as he went back to the bathroom.
