The Unexpected Old Man

Fir woke to the sound of his phone ringing. He groggily stretched his legs and walked over to the window to open up the curtains.

"What was that weird dream?" he muttered to himself, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. The dream was hazy, but he knew it was important. Unfortunately, he could only remember some of it.

Glancing at his watch, he saw that it was already 6:00 am. It had been days since he discovered he wasn't human, but he'd adjusted quickly.

Knock knock.

He heard a knock on the door and called out,

"It's open."

The door opened up and the maids entered, looking stunning in their new uniforms.

"Just four rounds. I have something to do today," Fir chuckled.

The maids looked disappointed, but he had other things on his mind. He had a feeling that something big was about to happen, and he needed to be ready.
