Alana
The ticking of the clock filled the silence of the apartment, leaving a drowsy and sad aura about the room. Tapping her finger against the top of her coffee mug, Alana's doe-like eyes stared into the contents of the cup, watching the swirls of cream and coffee. It had been 3 years since she last saw her sister, and the anniversary had recently passed. A small scoff slipped her lips as she remembered the night she spent drinking in grief. She had wished upon a shooting star for help. She hadn't been specific, and she didn't even believe in such nonesense, but she was on her fourth glass of wine by then. Now, she sat alone in her apartment, drinking coffee to get rid of a hangover that ached her mind.
She glanced to the loud clock on the wall, and with a sigh slipped her sunglasses on. It was quarter to ten and she had class. She snatched up her keys and left the apartment, dragging herself out of the building and onto the sunblazed sidewalk. The heat and sun raked her brain with aches, and she released a groan. As she approached her car, she paused to notice her parking spot empty.
"What the hell." she uttered, glancing about until she noticed a tow truck disappearing down the street with a familiar vehicle on its tail. She had parked in a handicapped spot and been towed. She spat a curse word and placed a hand on her messy head thrown into a bun. "That's great. Just fabulous." she hissed, adjusting the bag on her shoulder and beginning her walk down the sidewalk. Campus was a twenty minute walk away, and shed no doubt be late. She frowned, ignoring glances she received due to her hung over appearance. As she traveled further down the street she noticed a figure strolling down the opposite sidewalk. As she grew closer, she snuck a glance. He was tall and rugged, his features were sharp and she found an intimidating aura spilling from him. She hoped her sunglasses hid her eyes as she watched him pass, before she slowed her pace in thought. Something about him left a heat in her chest and she wanted to take another glance. But she didn't, and continued her slow walk towards campus.
