"In the morning when I wake,
and the sun is coming through
and the sun is coming through
Oh you fill my lungs with sweetness
and you fill my head with you."
Audrey hummed to herself as she put the kettle on the stove.
A cool spring breeze blew through the window rustling her silk robe. It was
sunset on a Sunday evening, a perfect time for relaxation. Audrey kept humming
all the way to the bathroom where she got everything ready for her bath.
Tea light candles were lined up along the bathtub and in the corner sat scented bath salts. She turned on the old faucet and let the hot water fill up the big white tub. She took a deep breath and smiled, excited for the serenity that awaited her. Her humming now turned to a low singing as she lightly danced back into the kitchen. Her black cat Max Minx purred up at her, twisting his tale around her bare legs. She laughed at how it tickled the back of her knees.
The kettle whistled loudly and Audrey grabbed it off the stove and poured herself a big cup of tea. The scent of mint wafted into her nostrils making her sigh with delight. She kept singing all the way back to the bathroom where the bathtub was almost full. Audrey set her tea cup down in the corner before turning off the old faucet. Her little house was quiet, but for the sound of the great clock ticking in the hallway. Max walked into the bathroom and meowed up at Audrey. “Yes, I think we need some music to fill the air, don’t you think so Max?” She asked the cat. He meowed up at her again.
“Alright then, but what to play?” She asked. Audrey stood in the middle of her bathroom pondering and pondering what music she wanted to play. There was French songstress, the newer stuff on her ipod, the radio. But then she remembered something even better. “Ah-ha!” She announced before running out of the bathroom and into the living room. There in the corner sat an old record player. She grabbed her favorite old record that had lots of old piano ballads and put it on. The music filled her whole house and she smiled, dancing all the way back to the bathroom as if she were a ballerina.
Audrey slipped off her white silk robe and hung it behind the door. She sighed in content as she stepped into the warm bath. The warm water kissed her skin as she slid deeper and a feeling of ecstasy overcame her. Closing her eyes she sat for a moment enjoying the music and the bath and the smell of mint tea in the corner. It was an amazing feeling that she wished could last forever. She grabbed her tea from the corner and took a sip. It was the perfect temperature and it tasted like perfection.
“This is the definition of relaxation.” She thought to herself. She lay there enjoying the harmony and peace she felt, when his face crossed her mind. She couldn’t help but think of him especially in peaceful moments such as these. Her heart swelled just thinking of him. She smiled to herself thinking of the time when he showed up in the rain with flowers and she made him a warm cup of tea. That night they kissed and she knew she was in love. It was an old memory from when they first started to see each other, but it was one of her favorites. He was the best thing that had ever happened to her and she sighed as she looked down at the ring on her finger, and thought of the many memories that they would make together.
