Feeling Nervous
When his long and exhausting workday finally came to an end, Alex felt a surge of excitement that made it hard to contain himself any longer. He eagerly hurried towards the bus stop, eagerly anticipating the moment when he would finally reach home. The envelope in his hand held the key to his future, and the thoughts of its contents consumed his mind with every passing second of the bus ride. As he stepped onto the crowded bus, Alex’s nervousness was palpable, making him too restless to even consider taking a seat.
Opening The Envelope
As soon as he stepped through the front door, a wave of anticipation washed over him. Without wasting a moment, he swiftly retrieved the sealed envelope from his backpack and carefully placed it on the wooden table, still feeling the weight of its ominous contents. His haste was evident, as he neglected to remove his shoes, the urgency consuming his every thought. With trembling hands, he gingerly unfolded the crinkled paper within, anxiety coursing through his veins with each passing second. And then, as his eyes scanned the first words penned on it, a sinking feeling enveloped his heart, intensifying his already palpable apprehension.
