Her alarm beeped loudly in her ear and her eyes opened suddenly, surprised. 6:00. She slammed her hand on top of the clock and sat up, her hair a mess. She yawned and hopped out of bed, hitting her roommate with a pillow, “Rise and shine sleepyhead!” Her roommate, a girl with a purple-tipped Mohawk, looked up a glared in her approximate direction, and then went back to sleep. The girl didn’t notice, she practically skipped to bathroom and took a shower, combed her hair, blow-dried it, and styled her bangs. She applied her mascara and a little eyeliner, put some chapstick on her lips and stepped back to examine herself in the mirror. She smiled, satisfied. She opened the door to exit the bathroom and jumped to see her roommate standing behind it, unwashed eyeliner still on her face from the night before. She smiled apologetically, “Sorry, you scared me there.”
Her roommate raised her eyebrows watching her grab her bags and head out the door, as it shut, Mohawk girl shook her head, smiling.
