Power wink
I wake up feeling like I slept for hours but when I look at the clock it is only 3 pm. I just doze off for half an hour!. The afternoon nap often makes me feel like this. Sometimes I got confused thinking I snooze the whole afternoon and the whole night and when I wake up its morning already. Then it dawned on me and realizes that I take a power nap.
When I was younger my parents used to urge me to take a siesta. They believed that children grow taller after sleeping in the afternoon. One of them will watch me and keep telling me to close my eyes. I don't get sleepy most of the time so I pretend. When my mom or dad is not in my room anymore. I played with my cotton pillow and by chance, I discover a small seed in it. This small seed became a toy for me. It is so calming touching and pressing it until it's a habit for me to do during my afternoon catnap. Also, it comes to be part of my routine before going to sleep at night.
Getting up from an afternoon wink is invigorating. I get dress, wear skinny pants and an oversize T-shirt. Then went to look for my mother but still, the lady of the house is not home yet. I wonder how does mom behaves with her pals. Did she giggle when she talks with her friends? Wow, I start to think like my mom now. Worrying what is going on when people are not home. Went to the kitchen to drink water for hydration. Then send my mom an SMS asking her what time she is coming home? Wait did I just do that! Oh, my I'm acting like her. This is awful. I better stop! I am too young to be her mom!
My phone made a tone that says " you better read me now or your mom will not make your dessert " Yes I made it specifically for my mother's message. I read her message and she said, "will be home later to make dinner. If your going out don't forget to lock the door and don't be late for dinner. Also, eyes on the road if you walk with your friends. Dangers haunts people who do not care for safety" Ah! it's good to know that I am still the kid in this house and smile like crazy.
Take the Tiramisu and pack it nicely with a disposable spoon and plates. Clutch my backpack and locked the house. Decided to walk to Hospital since it will only take 10 minutes. Strolling is a good thing, especially when the weather is not hot. Love the soft gentle breeze of fresh air blowing in my face. As advised by mom's I pay attention to the road of course. Yeah, I am an obedient child. I know what is good for me and I do it most of the time. When it comes to my safety I often listen to the experts and they seem to be always right. I hate to say this as I am in my rebellious stage but my parents are the experts.
