The Outback
Early Morning
(Takes place during early June 2012)
The soft chime of music met the woman's ears. Soft rustling of blankets brought an outstretched hand reaching to take hold of the still buzzing cell phone. She rose and sat up -- causing thin sheets to fall from feminine frame and gather about within her lap. ".. So early.." She murmured. The foggy feeling of being half-awake still overpowering her enough to cause the smallest bit of a wobble while she sat there upon the softness of her bed.
"Ugh.." She groaned. Reaching once more, this time to gather glasses. The world wasn't so blurry when she slipped them over her features, and neither were those two words that she read on the small screen.
Dad died
It's been five years since she spoke with her brother
.. and this was the text that broke the ice.
