Today’s six is a little bit before most of what I’ve posted. I wanted to show Tyris’s life before things all began to go crazy. (Sorry it’s a little late today, it’s been one of those weeks.)

Tyris’s phone buzzed on his bedside table, and he rolled over to pick it up, rubbing his eyes. The bed was empty beside him, the covers thrown back. He stared at the message on the screen, trying to focus his eyes.

The little blinking text said “The event ‘Wedding Anniversary’ is in one week.”

He smiled, and lay back on the pillows, debating what to surprise Milandra with this year. He flicked through a few online sites, checking for local events, and booked tickets for dinner and a show at a new restaurant he and Milandra had been discussing.
