It was only when the sun began to shoot through the blinds that she realized what time it must have been. It served as a reminder as to why her eyes started to get heavy and the reason her strokes felt sluggish on the large sketchpad. Vibrant blue eyes blinked slowly to face her bed, a crumpled mess of sheets, pillows and cat plush toys almost consuming most of the sleeping space. Fighting the urge to jump into the mass of fluff she instead placed her tools down to quickly undress and change into presentable clothes.

It was like she was going through the motions of washing, brushing and then stepping out of her room to meet the large hallway. It was still the dead of morning for anyone reasonable to be awake but as she made her way down the long flight of stairs, signs of life was heard by the loud clanking sounds of the kitchen. Pausing in front of the door, she saw a stack of pans on the counter, a tray of eggs by the stove and a peculiar man in a black robe analyzing the cooking utensils as if wondering what the appropriate tool was.

The man with speckled gray hair turned to face his daughter, eyes widening at the sight of her wearing the new shirt he had personally picked out for her. A beaming smile spread across his face as he saw her, seemingly proud at her attempt at looking more like an adult. The white dress shirt she wore was wrinkled but only slightly, paired with polyester black pants that looked sleek and long. Her long black hair was up in a messy bun with the blue highlights peeking through in a somewhat chaotic but professional look.

“Aurelia!” Immediately he extended his arms while walking towards her, leaving no time for a response and embracing her in the warmest hug. Despite the temptation to close her eyes to relish in the comfortable motion, she merely raised her arm to pat him on the back as a response.

“Papa. Don’t you have work?” Her voice was soft, almost shy.

“Yes but… it will be the last time you will be in this house for a long time so I moved my schedule around. It will just be you and I today, are you ready for a road trip?” He had the same vibrant blue eyes and they were greeting her with a smile.

“You… will be driving?” She was almost confused as they both walked towards the pans and stove.

“Well, I do know how!” He laughed.

“I forget sometimes.” She softly responded while taking one of the pans from the pile and setting it on the stove.

“Well don’t you worry, I’ll be sure not to crash us.” With a wink, his attention was quickly brought to the pan she picked.

“Most any of them would have worked for eggs.” She informed him as she took notes of his curiosity.

“Oh, really? Let me at least help, I wanted to cook you breakfast before you went.”

“Crack the eggs into the bowl.”

Her businessman father took the time to listen to her instructions, compliment her own cooking skill and managed to play house for the whole duration. His charismatic nature was part of his incredible success, using it to seal several contracts and negotiate favorably. The results of their efforts were a cheese omelet with onion leeks, small sausages and a salad on the side. They ate breakfast together for the first time in five years.

“Oh yeah, I thought it’d be sunny today but it looks like there’s going to be a bit of a shower. Kind of a shame, right?”

“It explains the particularly cold morning.” She took a bite from her salad.

“I saw your luggage in the hallway, are you sure that’s all you’re taking? Two suit cases? I know there are stores around there but you sure you don’t want to take more stuff?”

“Maybe a few more things.” She said, thinking back on her cat plush toys.

--

As she stepped outside the front door she was met with a baby blue SUV with all of her packed luggage in the back seat. He was in the driver seat waving at her while seemingly fiddling with the radio. She had a backpack and peeking out from the top was a gray cat plush.

“Ready to go?”

“Yeah.”

Aurelia took a moment to stare at the ordinary scenario and all she could think was how it all felt like a waking dream.
