"How gutsy .. giving me a deadline , hah, the people of this world never seize to amaze me "

Beatrice soliloquized as she laid on her side, with her elbow pinned on the bed and her hand supporting her left chin . Her other hand took back and forth trips from her plate of grapes into her mouth. Red juice slid down the side of her lips and she took it back in with the tip of her tongue. 

The large t.v was on but she had made it soundless. A Lot of adverts were playing still but none caught her interest. She kept rolling her eyes at the t.v whenever they caught a glimpse of it. Just then, her phone rang.

.." finally. Of course you should proceed, we have just five days left. No more wasting time. Get it done."

She replied to the caller. She hung up and stared at the clock.
