As the golden rays of sunlight streamed through the curtains, casting a warm glow in the room, Armand slowly opened his eyes and stretched his arms with a joyous smile on his face. This was no ordinary morning for him, as he awakened with an overwhelming sense of happiness and contentment. The events of the previous night had unfolded as he had planned, leaving him with a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction.With a skip in his step, Armand swung his legs out of bed and planted them firmly on the floor. He relished the sensation of the soft carpet beneath his toes, almost as if it mirrored the comfort he felt in his heart. A symphony of chirping birds outside his window seemed to harmonize perfectly with his inner state of bliss.Dressed in a crisp white shirt and tailored trousers, he made his way to the mirror. His reflection revealed a face radiating with genuine happiness. His eyes sparkled with a mix of excitement and contentment, reflecting the success of his well-executed
"Don't just stand there, get the door for me" Armand instructed and King immediately complied.Afterwards, he got into the driver's seat, realizing that Armand had not given him the key, he turned back and requested for it."What're you doing?" Armand asked."Where's the car key?" King repeated."And I asked what you're doing," Armand said."If I'm to drive you to work, I need the key to the car" King stated."King, how do I say this politely?" Armand asked."Say what politely?" King inquired."That was a rhetorical question but since you want to know. I need you to please step down from this car, right now" Armand said."Why?" King asked, feeling confused "Am I not to drive you to work as well?" He inquired further."No, you are not!" Armand replied."So, I'm good enough to wash the car but not good enough to drive it?" King asked, his voice raised slightly."Actually, yes. Also, I do not trust you enough to allow you to drive me. Driving me is a privilege which you haven
"My bad, I meant Mr Armstrong" Carla quickly corrected herself, remembering what he had told her the previous night."May I sit?" She asked ."Feel free," Armand replied, gesturing towards the chair in front of him."When I informed my parents I would be here today, they asked me to extend their greetings. They wanted you to know how happy they were to see you last night and they regret not having the opportunity to speak to you" Carla said"How was your…" Carla wanted to make small talk but Armand just wasn't in the mood for it."What do you want, Carla? I need you to go straight to the point, I have important businesses I need to attend to" Armand stated."That's true. I'm sorry if it felt like I was wasting your time" Carla apologized..At that moment, she knew it would take more than dressing seductively and wearing nice perfume to interest Armand.The conversation was not going her way "This will be harder than I thought" she muttered."What was that? I didn't catch that

"Hey, are you ready to go have dinner with my parents?" Armand asked Vanessa. They were standing outside her house, he had come to pick her up."Yeah, I guess so. But I can't help feeling a little skeptical about it. I mean, I'm not officially your girlfriend, and meeting your parents in this setting feels like a big step."

It was the start of another Monday. King had just finished doing what he does every other day of the week: washing Armand's car.At around the same time as always, Armand strolled into the garage."Good morning King" he said"Good morning, Sir" King replied, saying the word as if it was bitter in his mouth.He was about to walk away when Armand called him back."Can I help you with something else?" He asked."Actually, yes.""What's that?" He asked. Apart from washing his car, Armand had not asked him to do anything else.Armand didn't answer right away, he simply threw the car keys at him.Looking up, King asked "What's this?""I'm pretty sure you know what that is" Armand replied and walked into the car."I do know what it is, but why're you giving it to me?" King asked"Because, you'll be driving me today. I gave Donald the day off" Armand answered.The first thing King did when he heard that statement was to look at his attire. He had on a pair of casual pants and
"Hello Carla"As Carla stood face to face with King, her eyes widened with surprise, and her gaze traveled across his appearance. Once a man of wealth and opulence, he now stood before her with signs of adversity etched on his countenance. A mix of emotions coursed through her, creating a whirlwind of thoughts and reactions.Initially, disbelief washed over her features, momentarily freezing her in place. The stark contrast between the memories of his affluence and the reality of his current state was jarring.

She gazed into his eyes, searching for the essence of the man she once knew. She recognized the weariness and struggle etched on his face, the marks of a life that had taken an unexpected turn. Her heart ached at the realization of the challenges he must have faced and the hardships th
