It's now Sunday afternoon and you sigh as you dread having to work tomorrow.

Yesterday, after your phone sex session with Yoongi, you spent the rest of the day running errands and doing all of the boring chores that come with being an adult. Today, you're hoping to spend the day relaxing and pampering yourself as you prepare yourself for a brutally boring week at work.

You decided to draw yourself a bath and are currently waiting for the tub to fill while scrolling aimlessly on your phone.

As the tub is filling, you decide to text Irene while waiting.

Y/N: So, I got Yoongi's personal number.

Irene: I'm still a little offended that you'd rather have a random guy's phone number instead of going out with the hot guy I set you up with 🙄

Y/N: Just because someone's hot doesn't mean you're compatible.

Irene: You were plenty compatible until he asked for permission to kiss you.

Y/N: Yeah because that just makes the situation so fucking awkward. At that point, just kiss me. This isn't a K-drama where the guy waits until episode 7-8 to kiss the girl.

Irene: What are you going to do with Yoongi's number?

Y/N: Well, I'm thinking after a few more phone sex sessions, I'm going to try to video chat.

Irene: He better be hot or I'll be even more mad at you for not giving my guy another chance.

You merely roll your eyes at her response before glancing over at the tub and seeing that the tub is completely filled. You then set your phone back onto the counter and reach for the tap, turning the water off.

Looking through the many bath salts, you eventually decide on a vanilla bath salt and reach for your self-care book. You smile to yourself before starting to rid yourself of your clothes.

You dip your toe into the bath to make sure the temperature is correct. As the warm water comes into contact with your skin, you let out a soft sigh and finish getting into the bath. Once settled, you lay a small tray onto the tub in front of you to hold your book and a small glass of red wine. You then glance over at your phone on the bathroom counter, contemplating whether you should place it onto the tray in front of you.

Eh, no. This is your time to relax.

You lean back in the tub fully and allow your knees to be slightly above the water as you hold your book in front of you with one hand and the wine in the other.

Taking a sip of the wine, you read the next chapter of your book.

Self-love.

You're a person who has slowly gotten better at this aspect of improving yourself for the better. You had a phase growing up where you were insecure and felt not good enough for those around you. A phase where you constantly would stare at yourself in the mirror and judge yourself based on your physical qualities rather than all qualities of yourself.

Granted, most women deal with this on a daily basis. You're not the first and are by far the last to have thoughts like this. In fact, these thoughts still occur here and there. However, learning to give yourself the respect and justice that you should always give to yourself, it's gotten better.

You smile to yourself softly as you read the affirmations that the book recommends you say to yourself.

You set the wine glass onto the tray in front of you. Reaching for the mirror in your shower used to ensure there's no shampoo in your hair and to shave, you hold the mirror up and stare at the makeup-less, most vulnerable version of yourself.
