Meimei woke up in the middle of the night; She was exhausted after a long Iriam stream and decided to take a short nap but looking at the time she realized... Oh it had been several hours.
As soon as she realized- she heard a grumble from her stomach, "Ah" She realized she was starving and was kinda craving a box of 'Honey Nut Cheerios ™' she quickly shoved all her blankets to the left side of her bed and quickly made her way to the right side of her bed.
As she slowly placed her feet on the floor she moved her hand to grab her phone on her nightstand, noticing how much cooler it had been compared to how hot it had been during stream. Unplugging the phone from the router she paced her way to the door opening it.
The door creaked open. "I really have to fix that" She spoke and noted to herself. She quickly made her way down a hall way past a seemingly ominous room to her left and turned on the lights at the end of the hall way.
She took her time going down her to story house turning on the lights as she passed by, as much as she wasn't very scared of the dark it was better to be able to see things as she walked around.
As she casual walked around her house soon enough she reached her kitchen. She looked up at the shelf and made a beeline straight to it.
Soon enough she reached her destination and just as she reached for the top shelf... she missed. She missed the handle bars that held her box of Honey nut Cheerios.
She screamed internally so hard that if it were actually heard her windows would shatter into a million pieces. The vibrations of that high pitch internal scream would be heard for miles and would sound like a kettle heating up.
As she quietly seethed within the comfort of her home- she quickly recovered thankful she wasn't living with her roommates any longer lest they saw her struggling to reach the topshelf.
That had happen way too many times with her couch surfing days how truly embarrassing that was getting the 'Do you need help reaching the top shelf?' "Ughhh" She groaned it was a terrible memory to remember.
Realizing she'll need a stool she quickly opened to bottom drawer in search to find her stool. And- Nothing she found nothing. She quickly began searching through every single drawer to find it. "Aaaaa Where is it I know I always keep it here...." She suddenly went very, very quiet as she realized she left it in her bathroom.
Because she couldn't reach the top shelf of the drawer behind her mirror.... 「WHY DID I BUY SUCH A BIG HOUSE」As she mentally reprimanded herself about buying a big house she quickly made her way to the bathroom as every once in a while quietly cursing to herself. They were very much first world problems all things considered.
As she quickly found her stool she picked it up pretending not to even look at the damnable thing and made her way back to her kitchen at a rather brisk pace. Soon enough she reached her kitchen and was able to open up the shelf; AND without incident was able to pick up her cereal.
As she went over to her fridge she sooner rather than later realized she wasn't tall enough to pick up her milk.... She was gonna throw one of her hats out the window at this rate. She with a defeated look on her face picked up the stool again and put it next to the fridge and as she opened it she stood on it and grabbed the milk.
This was a vicious cycle and she knew it. With dejection she grabbed a bowl from her dry rack and placed the bowl on her kitchen table and dropped a fair amount of cereal on her bowl and then slowly placed some milk in it until it filled the bowl.
As she placed her spoon in and took a bite she forgot all the worlds problems she had gotten earlier and just began eating her cereal in peace she turned on her phone and began to watch her favorite streamers on iriam.
