I groaned as I blinked into consciousness. The white ceiling above me was the same as yesterday, but something was off. Something wasn’t like it usually was.
It was still dark, barely any light streaming through the window, but I knew it had to be morning by the chirping birds outside, ready for the day.
I reached for my phone on the nightstand, unplugging it from the charger. The phone lit up, and I blinked a few times, readjusting to the sudden bright light.
The time, 5:37, screamed out at me next to the one-hundred percent battery sign. I groaned, throwing my hand onto the bed.
It was early. Very early.
I could go back to sleep, but I knew that was a pointless venture. My brain had already started blaring thoughts at super-sonic speed. I was up for the day whether I liked it or not.
I moved to sit up and winced at the sudden ache in my lower body. My lower back burned with the movement and I gasped in pain.
What the fuck?
