Hidden within

Part 3

Vivian's POV

I awake in the morning in my bed. I sigh as I get up from my bed. I hurry into the bathroom and do my business. I then head into the kitchen to make myself some breakfast. I turn the small radio I have in the kitchen to the first stations I get clearly. I then look around to see what I'll make. Something small. I decide on some eggs and toast.

I cook it and then eat it at the table. I don't have any television but I have Internet and a home phone. I open my laptop and check my website. People can order paintings or drawings of people or things. I see a couple more orders and groan. I'll have to go to the post office before the next market. I also need to get more supplies. I quickly write out a couple lists. I then grab my stuff and go outside. I set up my easel and paints. I change into clothes I can ruin and start to paint what's around me. This calms me down. Nature and art.

The next couple of hours I just paint what's around. I moved around the forest. Not to far away from my house but enough to make two paintings. I smile to myself as I go back to my house. I planned tomorrow to wrap and ship these.it was about 3 so I start to plan what I want for dinner.

I decided on some Mac and cheese. I made it and then ate as I package my paintings. I then put it in my truck. I then work on some sketches.

After a while I go outside and lay on the grass. It had gotten late so I knew I should go to bed but I loved the night sky. The beauty was amazing. I usually took picture and did paintings off of them. I sigh as I couldn't stop my eyes from shutting. I got up and set my alarm clock before falling into sweet oblivion.

Next morning I awoke at 7:30 am. I took a shower and got dressed in a dress. I then put my shoes on and loaded my neatly wrapped packages into my truck. I pull out of the drive through and drove the tortuous drive to town. When I arrive after an hour or so I park at the postal office and grab my purse. I then grab my wrapped products hurrying inside. It was pretty early so no one was here. I payed and hurried outside. I hadn't eaten breakfast yet so I walk a little before finding a diner. I enter and sit down at a table.

I order some coffee and a pancake. I sit quietly as I eat. I eat slowly hungry cause I forgot to eat dinner. Though it wasn't the first time. I pay and exit the diner. I take a stroll around town. I didn't want to go back home. It's lonely there even though I like the isolation. I continue to walk in peace. I walk into a bookstore and start to look around.

After a while I purchase a couple books and walk the way back to my car. As I walk someone bumps into me. I mutter a sorry and keep walking. I unlock my car and hop in I have to go home now. I throw my purchase in the seat next to me and start driving home.
