100 WC Week 1 - Peace At Last

There it goes again! He snores like a congested elephant. Like a noisy zipper the rhythm goes up and down . I stumble downstairs for a rest bite. The kitchen is tranquil, barring the fridge humming it's lonely tune in the unlit corner. Comforting hot chocolate calls to me, enticingly. As I pour the milk, the cat purrs around my ankles in hopes of sharing my midnight treat.

I climb the stairs wearily. The monotonous drone still continues. I rummage around in the bedside drawer, finding earplugs hiding amongst the clutter. I insert the soft, silencing earplugs and then the noise stopped. Heaven. Peace at last!
