Something is going to happen today

I can feel it

I don't know if it will be good or bad and I'm not exactly excited to find out but I suppose I don't have a choice

I inhale sharply as I sit up and brush my fingers through my hair. I pull my black sheeted duvet off me and walk straight into my large bathroom

I turn the warm water of the shower on as I strip from my boxers before stepping in

I wash my body as I bask in the calming feeling before getting out and wrapping a towel around my waist

I dry my hair with a smaller towel before freshening my beard and spaying my aftershave

I change into my work clothes; a pair of dress pants and shoes with a black shirt

I grab my phone from the charger before heading downstairs to my kitchen

I'm halfway through making my black coffee when my best friends Dante and Alex walk in

I met them both when I joined the army at 18, 12 years ago

"ugh I'm so done with today" Dante huffs as he plops himself on a chair

"it's 9 am" i state

"yeah and I already need a nap"

I hear Alex chuckle while I shake my head and pour my coffee

I sigh and lean against my kitchen counter as I drink it and Alex flicks through TV channels before landing on the news

"Why do you watch the news? You so old" I scoff

"You're older than me!"

"whatever" I chuckle

I quickly finish my drink before setting the mug in the sink

"come on" I call them over as we walk out of my house

We all get in my car and I drive to the office

After leaving the army I started my own building company and hired Dante and Alex

It's now very successful and it's made me millions

We walk into the building as we get greeted by employees. We all head straight into our offices and start on our work

After 7 hours it's 5 pm and I only have a couple of hours left of work to do

The annoying sound of my phone ringing cuts me off from writing an email

"hello Franco King" I answer

"Mr King it's Hector Dawson, I was just wondering why when I went to the building site this afternoon I saw your workers still putting up the house frame?"
