Cindy's Day
Cindy sipped her hot cocoa and let the warmth hit her stomach, as she listened to the serene crackling of the fireplace. She opened her book, and cuddled on the couch with her dog Bree, until the phone rang.
“Who could be calling me on my day off?” she asked Bree as she barked. “I feel the same way,” she said as she patted Bree’s head and answered the phone.
“Stan has called in sick. You need to come to the office now,” Cindy’s boss said without a hello.
Her planned relaxing day became a hectic day at the office.
