-
Of course, everything seemed quite normal at first.
-
I made breakfast for my family.
-
I performed my chores.
-
I completed my projects.
-
I ran my errands.
-
In truth, I spent the day as I spent every other day,
-
quietly polishing the routine of my life
-
until it gleamed with perfection.
-
That's why it was so astonishing when
-
I decided to go to my hallway closet
-
and retrieve a revolver
-
that had never been used.
