It was a usual day in Athens, Georgia. A blue jay chirped and some of the neighbors were cutting grass. "BEEP BEEP!" Caleb was woken by the annoying sound of his alarm clock. He hit the top of the clock and it ceased it's beeping, which prompt him to glance groggily at the clock noticing he was half an hour late for work. He jumped out of bed throwing the sheets to the floor as he rushed to the dressers to grab his work shirt and jeans. He stumbled a bit as he hastily grabbed his car keys, shoes and book bag that carried his writing journal and computer. He hurries out the door to see his neighbor Mr. Williams cutting his grass and waving at him as he gets to his car. "Good Morning Caleb." Mr. Williams laughs under his breath as you unlock your car door, "Morning Will. Have a good day." Caleb says with a wave as he backs out of his driveway to go to work. Mr. Williams waves as he begins to cut grass again.

Caleb sighed as he pulled in to work at GameStop. He got out of car and locked it, once he got inside he saw his co-worker Marissa at the desk smiling coyly at him. "Why so late Caleb?" she props elbows on the desk. "None of your business Marissa." Caleb went behind the desk to help with customers that would soon file in to buy new games and systems. "So how are the ideas for your book coming along?" Marissa asked as a college looking student walked in heading straight for the Nintendo games. "Not so well if you must know." Caleb sourly said, wishing to be at home or anywhere else to think of ideas for his book. "Alright, fine I won't ask anymore, grumpy." Marissa went to help a customer that was looking highly confused. Caleb sighed as he checked out another customer. At 1:30 pm he left to go the grocery store to grab the needed supplies to fix spaghetti for himself tonight. As he drove back into his driveway he saw a man that was slightly taller than him with a dark olive skin tone, brown sort of kempt hair with a small cow lick in the front. Caleb grabs his groceries and began heading towards his front door with his keys in hand. He turned to open his door and not seeing the guy walk up to him and stand there awkwardly a few feet behind Caleb. Caleb finally turned around to see if he was still there, when he turned around he jumped a bit to see the stranger so close to him. "H-hi, so you need anything?" Caleb shakily asked the stranger, who proceeded to smile and after a pregnant pause the stranger finally said "I need your help." Caleb blinked and answered "Give me a second, Please." Caleb walked through the door to his kitchen to sit his groceries on the counter. He then walked back to the front door to see the stranger still standing there with a smile on his face. "What do you need help with…. Ummm..What's your name?", "My name is Aaron Spears and I live across the street from you, also I need to get a book off your roof that my Ex threw up there." Caleb was surprised when he walked out into his front yard to see that a book was indeed on his roof. "I have a ladder in my shed." Caleb hesitated to walk in the back with Aaron, who says he lives just on the other side of the street. "Okay can we make this a little bit quicker I have to go to my job soon." Aaron then walked around the house to the shed and when Caleb got there he was dragging the ladder out of the shed. Caleb quickly went to aid Aaron.

Once it was all done he had Aaron help him put the ladder back in the shed, it was going on 3:30pm now and Aaron crossed the street with book in hand, saying he had to go to work before his boss thought he was skipping. Caleb went back in his house and as he was walking pass his journal he got an idea to write about a situation just like the one he experienced with Aaron. When he got done writing that small chapter down he thought of more ideas, but his mind went blank. Caleb sighed as he walked around his now quiet and empty house, he started to fix his meal before he went to take a shower. Just another day in Athens, Georgia suburbs.
