Paul's Pov

It was 9 in the morning, one thing I knew that happened in the early time of the day is to go to work. I got up and put on my shoes, and looked towards my bed. The body of a wonderful woman, was sleeping dearly. I walked to my side of the bed and gave her a brief soft kiss on the forehead. That soft kiss woke her up slightly. "Hey babe, you going to work?" asked my wife yawning and stretching out against the bed sheets.

"Yeah, I wish I can stay in bed, I'm so sleepy." I said. She smiled, holding her head against her hand.

"Just making sure, you didn't forget to take Claire to the bus stop right, and she's at school? Right?" my wife asked

"Just making sure, you didn't forget to take Claire to the bus stop right, and she's at school? Right?" my wife asked. A smirk ran across my lightly woken face.

"Yes I remembered. It was one time Tia, let it go." I said jokingly. "Okay honey I'm gone," I said walking away.

"Bye!" she yelled. She laid her head down back onto the soft pillows as I closed the bedroom door. I opened the fridge to grab some grape juice to take with me and it was only a little bit left. A sigh let out of my mouth and I closed the door. I took my tooth brush and tooth paste with me and a cup of water. I got inside my Toyota Camry and started to the road. My neighborhood was like a typical dreamlike life. Almost nothing really happens others than things that happen on the news. I get a call from my best friend I've know ever since my 7th grade year of school, Derek.

My car ring up his number and I clicked answer. I was speaking to him from my car and driving.

"Hey big fella, how's your morning?"

"Good so far, the only thing I'm not a fan of is that someone drank most if the grape juice and didn't finish it, which meant I couldn't have none." I said. It's kind of like a role for me. If you're gonna drink it til it's low, drink the rest or have someone else drink it. "Like I keep saying, let someone know who can drive it!"

"Haha, that's you Paul, always so loyal, but I finally understand why you do. You do it because you put your family before yourself." he said. All of a sudden he was being sentimental. "You..... You put all people over yourself, even your enemies, and that's what makes you a great person."
