A girl with light blue hair was walking alone on a busy street while scrolling on her phone. It was past midday and she hadn't done anything useful than walk around, but she could care less. She hadn't had any fun in months and Social media eased her off a lot of the tension that she was feeling right now.
Suddenly,she received an email on her phone and it made it buzz. Seeing the sender from the notification bar, she groaned outwardly. Just Two weeks and she couldn't get all her rest. If you ask her, it only felt like two days...
She decided she was going to ignore the message for another week. After all, She was given the lease of a month and there was nothing she was planning to do about that.
She placed her phone on airplane mode and put it in her backpack. Then she tied her hair into a ponytail and started walking albeit quickly but not too much to be noticed. She started observing the people that passed her by, scrutinizing them as they walked. Soon, she reached her apartment building.
She stood right at the entrance and guided her neck upwards. The building was a skyscraper and she liked it just for the view it gave at night. Sighing, she entered the building and walked straight past the large reception to the Elevator.
Surprisingly, she was the only one inside and no one asked to hold the door which was weird-and calming. She pressed her apartment floor number and then put her hands inside her leather jacket pocket and chewed on her inner mouth as she arranged her thoughts.
Firstly, she wanted to fly out to another country for a vacation effective immediately for a maximum of Five days but that might be cancelled due to the disturbing email she had received earlier so instead, she was going to sleep all day long for the next few days.
Secondly, well, After sleeping, she'll wake up and then be hungry; considering her appetite and not wanting to attract attention from any of her foes, she wanted to pay by cash when she goes out to get food stuff later so she had to come back to her apartment to do that but even that might not be a good idea.
Not to mention-
The Elevator doors just opened at this moment with a loud 'ding' sound. Hearing this, she immediately walked out of the Elevator and walked through the amber-lit hallway. She saw a girl about her age with a man in his Early thirties. The man whispered something in the girl's ear and she giggled. Since she was walking towards them, she was facing the girl's back and as the man raised his head from the lady's ear, he suddenly winked at her and grinned.
She quickly rolled her eyes at his lousy gesture and passed them-right after catching the slight disappointment on his face.
And then the girl just happened to talk.
" What's wrong, Darling?"
He quickly waved it off, "Nothing,love. Come on, Let's go now." The girl agreed and reluctantly followed him towards the Elevator.
The Blue haired girl wanted to scoff so badly at their faces,but she didn't want to act so rash so she just rolled her eyes and sighed.
She brought out her keys from her left pocket and opened her door and entered.
Suddenly, as soon as she dropped her bag on the nearest couch, she flopped straight on the bed. She inhaled the scent of the bedsheet deeply and turned over breathing in and out deeply again. She was getting tired of her new routine. And, She was starving.
She abruptly stood up from the bed and went to the suitcase at the far left-end of the room. She rummaged through the side zippers and found a bundle of cash notes in one of them.
She was about to take out of it but she decided against that and split it into three and put them in different pockets of her jacket and jeans.
Right before she stepped out of her home, Her eyes caught the tall mirror on the wall.
Curiously, she walked towards it and examined herself. She looked.....Okay, but she wasn't okay enough.
Sighing loudly, she kicked off her white shoes and socks, removed her jacket and her inner white top, grabbed a purple container, hair dryer and white transparent nylon-gloves and she entered the bathroom.
Goodness,her life was a mess.
Inside the bathroom, She'd removed her contacts and then she washed her hair and dried it. Then she opened the 'purple' container and wore the transparent gloves. Gazing at her appearance on the mirror, She raised an eyebrow at herself and removed her hair band.
"What?"She asked her reflection on the mirror.
"I just want a new colour." And then she smiled.
>>>~
Around an hour or two later, She came out of the bathroom with a new appearance. She put on her inner wear and instead, took a light hoodie from the foot of the bed. She had packed her hair up in a messy bun on top of her head and left two locks from the bun to rest on her forehead and face like two long bangs.
"Ha" She said as she flipped imaginary hair over her shoulder.
"Now that's more like it" And she winked to no none in particular.
She quickly rolled her eyes at her behaviour and picked up her backpack that was resting on the couch to her right and searched for something.
She brought out her phone, head phones and a lens pack. she cleansed her fingers and picked up the contacts and wore them on her eyes. Then she blinked a few times and got used to it. She brought her phone to her face to examine her eyes closely.
Satisfied with the results, she proceeded to remove her phone from air plane mode to be able to watch a few more shorts before she heads out.
Except, once she started watching the shorts, she became engrossed in it and was annoyed when a call came in. It was the same sender of the email. She decided to ignore the call instead and closed her ears with her earpieces so that she could also hear the sounds from the shorts and with that, she stepped outside her home and locked the door once more.
She continued watching while glancing above her phone so as not to bump into someone she didn't want to until she reached the Elevator. She wasn't alone this time as there was another man and an elderly woman inside.
'Great. What a Perfect combination' She thought sarcastically as a matter of fact. As if on cue, The Elderly lady craned her neck again in confusion as she gazed at the girl's head which was suffering from an immense syndrome of the colour Purple-not really but really. But when her eyes landed on her face, she spoke,"Why, You are very beautiful-"
"-ding!-" The Elevator interrupted. Miss Purple head quickly bowed to the old woman in apology and Man in form of respect before dashing out.
She finally reached the doorway of the building and walked out of it.
It was already night.
