I woke up to the shining light leaking through the open parts of my curtains. I grip the duvet that is wrapped around my body and throw it away.

With too much effort on my part it falls to the floor. The brisk morning wind flows through my open window hitting my bare skin.

My tank top and shorts show no protection from the cold wind. Rubbing my eyes desperately, I sit up straight and blink.

I instantly grab my phone and check for messages.

I open them with sloppy fingers, my whole body is still half asleep. Gosh I really hate waking up this early, I mean it's 6am on a Saturday morning.

I place my phone back onto my bedside table without replying to the messages. I stretch out my tiresome limbs and swing my legs out of bed.

I pad my way straight to the bathroom for a much needed shower. I let the water run cold over myself.

The freezing water bites at my skin awaking every nerve and bone in my body. I lean into the water and turn the switch to hot.
