Kyle came home late from the office looking real tired and hungry. By then, Ellen had gone to work the evening shift at the hospital.
“Oh dear!” he sighed seeing the dirty dishes in the sink.
Early in their relationship, he and Ellen had agreed that whoever cooks doesn’t have to do the dishes. Since Ellen did the cooking, Kyle knew he was it.
As he warmed his food, Kyle took a second look at the pile seemingly begging for attention. Realizing that it wasn’t high enough, he ate his dinner in peace. For sure, it could wait another day.

It was a job he loved, but it was no longer his. Through the years, he worked hard to keep it. Didn’t his boss call him Will although it wasn‘t his name? It was a moniker he earned for willing to do whatever was needed to get things done.
“It’s nothing personal,” his boss said. “It’s strictly business.”
As he cleared his desk and cubicle of personal stuff, he came to realize that even good things must come to an end. But sometimes it was for the better. With a promotion and a corner office, it was one of them.

It was a perfect day for playing ball. Dylan came early with his new pair of sneakers but didn’t find anybody in the park. All he saw were seniors doing their early morning walk.
“What happened to Luke, Jerry, Noah, and Tom?” he thought to himself anxiously looking at his watch. “They should be here by now.”
Dylan decided to sit on the bench and waited for his friends for what seemed like an eternity. He was totally unaware of being slowly approached from behind.
“Boo! Gotcha!” his friends yelled.
“What the hell! I thought you guys stood me up.”
