and like that, around an hour passed. as soon as i got off the phone with cristina, i get a text from veronica.

veronica
i have forwarded you an email with the lookbook the band has decided on, please take a look at when you have the time
i hope you're having a great day :))

i get up and walk to my desk, where my laptop is currently at. as i wait for it to start i reply to veronica.

me
grazie veronica! i will check it out right now!

i click 'download' and i get up to make some tea while i wait.

i return back to my bedroom and check the process of the download.

just how big is this file?

i go back to the kitchen and pour the boiling water in my cup. i sigh and look outside the small window. i happen to live on a busy street and i also happen to love people watching, so i lazily observe the random passbyers in their colorful clothes; families, businessmen, groups of teens... it's a fine afternoon and they are taking good advantage of it.

my train of thought gets interrupted by the timer i set for my tea, initiating that it is ready, so i go back to my room, where the download has finally finished.

i grab my work notebook and flip a new page. the band has chosen different makeup looks, clothes and colors for each appearance they'll have.

i scroll through the file and make notes for victoria as i go.
there's so much latex, damn...

i read everything then i start planning the outfits and the makeup, according to not only the notes, but also my personal taste.

somewhere halfway in my notetaking, my phone vibrates from where it's charging.

i sip some of my tea and go to check what it is.

vic
i am supposed to be practicing but i've missed you :<
[one picture attached] thomas took this one while i was struggling with a chord... the lack of respect towards his elders is unreal 🙄🙄

i tap on the notification icon and unlock my phone to see the picture:

i smile at the screen like an idiot and type in my reply.

me
i am going through the lookbook for the tour right now, it's looking good!
and you're looking amazing as always ;)

we text back and forth for a while, until she says that she's got to get back to work.

i return to my notes until two hours have passed and then i go to make something to eat.

salem is already waiting for me right next to his now empty food bowl and he gives me the 'feed me mother' look.

he follows me around the kitchen as i look for where i put his food and i almost trip over him several times because he's in the way.

"salem i'm gonna hit you on accident if you keep doing that-"

he ignores me and jumps on top of a counter, then licks his paw innocently as in saying 'not my problem'.
i finally manage to find his food and he rushes to his bowl as soon as he sees the bag.

i fill it as i try to think of something to eat.
i settle for an omelette and turn on the radio.

i dance around the kitchen while humming to the rythm and soon salem decides to join me.

i lift him up and hold him in my arms as we sway around the kitchen and wait for my food to cook.

"in two days i will have to leave for a while" i tell him "i know that you don't really understand but i am going to miss you"

salem just purrs and rests his head on my shoulder, as if saying 'don't worry, i'll be fine'.
