THE LAST AUTUMN
A NEW START

A NEW START

It's been 2 days since I came to my new apartment and settling things 'alone'. The cartoons in the rooms are still scattered here and there. The apartment is in the 15 th floor. It was organised by Aron only . The apartment is little too big for me. It has two luxurious rooms , one furnished kitchen and one washroom with fine tiling. The view from the balcony which is on the East side is beautiful. The sun wakes me every morning prompting me for a new start. ' A new start in which Fritz is not a part of '.

I looked for ideas for my new coffee shop in Pinterest and found some amazing aesthetic ideas for it. I am looking forward to make the shop of my dream place. It was 8 in the morning that I woke up and had myself a cup of coffee. The view from my balcony also reflects a park where young kids were playing and their mothers were having their own gossips. It was peaceful there , no noise , no disturbance. I should thank Aron for this beautiful gift . After resignation , I feel relieved at some extent , though I miss work very much but still some time off of it is good.

I went to shower and had my new clothes on for the survey of the markets to find new floorings , tiles , chairs and tables. As I was departing from my apartment , I heard a knock. No one was going to come now. I slowly walked towards the door and opened it.

"Aron?" I said in shock. He looked at me and the purple dress that I was wearing.

"Um , Yeah , did I disturb you?" He asked , his voice jolly and friendly.

"Yeah like I was going to a survey for my coffee shop items." I said. I could feel my voice breaking as I was too nervous at that time. Fritz was gone and I am still in that grief. His photograph is framed in my bedroom and sometimes I go under a series of breakdown just thinking about the life we had and the plane crash that changed our lives. I still feel the scar on my left hand that is left as the only sign of the crash.

It was quiet for a moment and then he spoke up, "I just came to check up on you , I know it's hard.." "I know" cutting his sentence off. I motioned him to excuse me and then I locked the apartment door. "Thanks Aron , this apartment is beautiful, but if you will excuse me now." I said thankfully. "Uh , yeah sure, if you ever need anything you can just give a call" He said. I nodded and walked off, he was still standing by the corridor and watched me walked out. My phone was crushed on the incident and that is why I couldn't contact anyone. I was also going to buy a new phone and perhaps get a haircut as I really need refreshment. So off I go.

There was a mechanical store from where I bought a new phone , I transferred all the necessary numbers and information in that. I was walking towards to find a salon and found one down the street. I entered the salon and I was greeted. I sat in one of the chairs as the salon was quite empty. There were two girls having their hair coloured and they were giggling and laughing.

"Welcome ma'am , what kind of haircut do you want?" A young man with brown hair asked me. He was wearing a spa uniform and looked quite dedicated in it.

"Yes , I want to cut my hair up to my shoulder please." I said. He smiled and nodded.

"Do you want to get it coloured?" He asked. I thought for a second and then went for it.

"Which colour would suit me , mister" I asked.

"Anything that makes you feel good" he said. Somehow I felt good in that sentence.

"Blue then" I said, he nodded and went for his mission.

It took 2 whole hours to complete and finish everything. He worked with so much dedication. I was shocked to see myself a little different. My brown eyes gazed in the blue highlights of my hair.

"Did you like it?" He asked.

"Absolutely , thank you" I said. I went to pay for it and gave a big nice tip .He asked my name for the bill.

"Melissa Mali it is" I said. He nodded and asked me to visit again.

"What's your name , mister?" I asked .

"Ethan it is" He smiled.

I smiled back and off I went.

I felt confident in my new hair and decided to buy some new clothes and then to the furniture shops. My only mission in this day is to have the long lost fun and enjoyment. I reminisce those old times when I alone used to roam the streets of UK with fun and self love. I was recovering by mind and soul. I was planning my dreams and this is the best thing to do.
