Julian was taking a stroll in the early morning, the sun was just rising, light wind was blowing gently, sweet melody of chirping birds filled the air. Her long, brown, luscious hair was swaying with the wind. The peaceful atmosphere was broken by the ringing of cell-phone. 

 

Disturbed from peacefully admiring nature, she picked up the phone. The number flashing on the screen was of her colleague; Sayra. Quickly answering the call to see what's the bad news that caused Sayra to wake up so early.

Has soon as she answered the phone, she was rewarded by Sayra's panicked voice: "Juliaaan! I just woke up and I remembered that I didn't submit the finished report of the Arian Lowaid case! I am going to be so screwed!"

 

Julian was unable to answer anything because Sayra was talking a mile a minute, she then heard a thud followed by silence, concerned she asked:

 .

"Sayra are you alright?"

 .

"What are you talking about? You submitted the file before leaving yesterday, from what I remember."

 

Sayra finally answered the phone and said:

 .

" Yea I am fine. "

 .

"Oh! You are right, I remember giving my report. Oh, drat and I woke up early due to stress."

 .

"Ignore what I said. Sorry for disturbing your weekend".

 .

"See you soon. Happy Weekend!"

.

Laughing softly she replied, "Happy Weekend to you too. See you on Monday!" With that, she put her phone down and continued to admire nature.

 

This was Sayra, Julian's best friend slash colleague who was the complete opposite of Julian, personality-wise. Where Julian was calm & collected, Sayra was anxious  & easily panicked. While Julian was a high-priority & serious type, Sayra was jovial & genial. Julian was high-maintenance & a planner while Sayra just went along with what life throws at her. While Julian adapts easily, Sayra needs some time to get use to new changes. Where Sayra was quick-witted, Julian needed some time for an appropriate comeback where Sayra gives off a bubbly & cheerful vibe, Julian gave a mysterious & unapproachable vibe. But both were loyal, devoted, hard-working, smart-working, understanding, & didn't like to involve in other people's lives. 

 

Julian was reminiscing about how they became friends and gave a smile.

 

Flashback

 

Julian was going to visit a small grocery store to stock up on her grocery items, fruits & veggies she didn't need to worry about because she had dwarf trees for those. When she was approached by a person wearing a chick costume. She just ignored the chick and went ahead, but the persistent chick just followed her trying to hug her. Getting angry she turned to the chick and was going to politely ask; to leave her alone when the chick shoved a small transparent box having a muffin with a smiley face in her hand, saying that she should smile to make any day a happy day.

 

The chick then removed the headpiece and introduced herself as Sayra her classmate. Julian scanned her brain for all her classmates and found her to be one of them, their class had a total of 300 students and Julian usually just stayed by herself.

 

Both of them then use to meet frequently and became true friends.

 

Flashback Ended

 

Since it was a weekend and unlike Sayra who was a night owl, Julian was an early bird. She began by setting on the Robo-sweeper & Robo-moper in her home. She then went to the Kitchen and begin preparing the next weeks meal. She made both healthy food and junk food. The food was divided into portions for a balanced meal. Julian followed 5 meal per day plan with snacks in between. For breakfast, lunch & dinner; she took a ketogenic meal. For brunch, linner & snacks; she took a glucogenic meal. After the meal was prepared it was stored, for next week use. 

 

Coming out of the kitchen her sight fell on the wall clock, it was 1:00 pm. She went and sat on a massage chair for the next hour, relaxing and taking a nap. When she woke up it was 2:00 pm. She freshened up, grabbed a book in one hand with a strawberry & dates milkshake in the other hand and went to the window, where she saw it was raining lightly. She started reading the book, once the book was finished it was 5 in the evening. She received a message from her boyfriend-soon-to-be-fiance that they should meet in the Walls Café down the street by 7 pm. Julian left to get ready.

 

Julian suddenly felt that something awful is going to happen, but she ignored the uneasy and terrible feeling in her stomach and dressed casual but elegantly and left for the cafè.
