I woke to the sound of my alarm and with blurry eyes, I turned it off. I had barely slept the whole night, continually waking up shortly after I had fallen asleep. The last time I looked at the clock was an hour ago and it felt like I had only closed my eyes for a second before the alarm blared. I knew part of the reason I had slept poorly was because of nerves. Even when I have been in the University for two years and knew where everything was located, the first day of school was always nerve wracking. Another part was the emptiness beside me in bed, it was cold beneath the covers and too quiet. I didn't even have the heartbeat of another or the sound of steady breathing lulling me to sleep.

Yawning, I hauled my ass to the bathroom and jumped in the shower. I wished for one of those waterproof speakers so I could listen to music, it would have made the shower experience less tedious. It took several minutes before I froze not because the water grew icy cold but because it didn't. It still held the perfect temperature I had set before I got in under the stream. Either this was a total coincidence or it had gotten fixed. In my two years in this apartment, I had never showered without the water running cold at least a couple of times so I was betting on the latter.

Since I knew my landlord would have never used the money on his tenants when he could spend it on himself, I only think of one person or three out there who would. Of course, I had showered a couple of times in my apartment after that time Riccardo stayed over but it had only been quick ones before I would hurried off to work. Why I did what I did next, I had no idea, call it intuition. I hurried out of the shower and wrapped myself in a towel before I went to my living room. Looking first at my ever present bucket which was still there, my eyes went through the ceiling, my perfectly none hole ceiling.

I had gotten so used to the bucket that I hadn't noticed it wasn't being filled with more water. I usually poured it out when it held so much water that it almost ran over which I now realized hadn't happened in a long while. It could have been either of them, still my money was on Riccardo seeing as he was the one who knew about the temperature fluctuations in the shower. How had he even managed to open my apartment door without me here? Stupid question, seeing as they knew who the owner was and had probably gotten access to my apartment through him. I had a feeling my landlord was scared of them after Marshall's visits, although I still didn't know what exactly had happened between them.

Grabbing my phone, I tried calling Riccardo but only got to his voicemail and I remembered he mentioned he would be busy today with meetings, I would have to talk to him later about what he had done to my apartment, though mainly, I just wanted to thank him. Accepting help didn't take

away my independence and I was starting to learn that. Throughout my life, I had been too proud for my own good. I had seen people offering help as a dig to me like I couldn't do it myself. It took

didn't make me less than accept what they were offering. I still had thirty minutes until I had to leave for the bus but I was too nervous to eat. If I felt like it, I could grab a sandwich or something at a cafe in school.

Seeing the warm weather outside, I chose a pair of shorts and a tank top along with my favorite pair of sneakers. It was a chill look because I didn't have anyone I wanted to dress up for in school. Not that women needed someone to dress up. For the millionth time, I checked my bag to make sure I had everything I might need for school. Some professors let us leave after the initial introduction to their class but others started teaching right off the bat. Unable to sit still and wait for time to pass, I decided to get to the coffee shop earlier. It might do me good to get some fresh air while I was at it. Plugging my headset, I found my favorite playlist on my phone and pressed play. There was nothing better than music to ease my nerves. Joyce was already at the cafe when I got there and I was only slightly surprised. She liked being early or more correctly, she hated being late.
