Morning and tasks

Beep beep beep

Beep beep (*smashing sound*)

(*low grunts*)

Matthew opened his tired eyes and blinked a bit as sun rays were passing through his curtains. He had fell asleep on his desk. Fortunately he did have his alarm clock next to him. He straightened in his chair and stretched his arms and cracked a bit his neck. He was wearing a plain white shirt and some loose pants with squares. He scratched a bit his cheek before packing up his PC into his backpack and getting up.

He stumbled a bit and hit his pinky toe on the bed. He yelled "OH FUCKING B@$*" He quickly covered his mouth as he remembered no bad words were allowed in this house. He sat and looked at his toe, it was in pain so he just rubbed it a bit. He got up again and walked towards his bathroom. He brushed his teeth and looked at his reflection. His scales were a bit darker around his eyes. He poured some water on his face. He smiled at his reflection and got out.

He got in the hallway then walked towards the kitchen. He saw his sister Maya reading a chemistry book. He chuckled and said

Matthew: "Hey bookworw, early bird today?"

Maya: "(*sigh*) Aaron, says the biggest bookworm i know"

They laughed as a female voice came from behind, it was their mother.

Grace: "You two up to something (*looking at them whil pointing with her keys*) mama is watching you (*chuckling*)Anyway, I am exhausted. You two are quite early today, what happened? Did Jesus resurrected while I was at work or something?"

Matthew turned and hugged his mother.

Matthew: "Morning mama, how about I just (*taking her bag*) and you just get on the couch i will come give you a little massage before you get to rest"

Grace: "If you weren't like this any previous day I would say this is suspicious but you know what, I'm fine with this idea of yours. Thank you son, so glad to have such a fine young man"

Maya: "Omg he is a man?! I thought he was an overgrown goblin, oops my bad (*smirking*)"

Matthew: "At least I don't smell like one" (*grinning*)

Maya: "you bast-" (*quickly realizing*)

Maya looked at her mother that stared back at her with the "really?" look on her face.

Maya: "sorry mama"

Grace: "the pot"

Maya: "Mama i didn't even said it...well not entirely"

Her mother looked and crossed her arms. Matthew couldn't help but do grimaces while mocking her before saying.

Matthew: "Fill that pot May, you might get us rich by the end of this year if you keep on like this"

Maya looked at him and slammed her tail.

Maya: "So you gonna let him tease me like that mama?" (*pleading her cause*)

Grace: "oh don't worry he also got to drop money there"

Matthew was laughing then he stopped confused.

Matthew: " wait Why?!" (*faking to be offended*)

Grace: " I heard you swear in your room boy"

She turned to look at him still with the "really?" look on her face.

Matthew: "Ugh I mean, yeah I knocked my pinky toe"

Grace: "ooof I feel ya baby but you know the rules"

Matthew sighed and replied

Matthew: "Yes mama"

Maya: "(*grinning*) you naughty boy"

Grace: "Get the money in the pot and come rub my shoulders boy. Imma wait for you"

Matthew grunted a bit and nodded. He got to his room and took his wallet and took out a dollar bill. He went back to the kitchen and head towards the fridge. On top of it was a pot full of dollars placed by Maya mostly since she curses a lot and some are his and his mother's.

He was still flabbergasted that his grandmother was exempted from this probably because his mother couldn't say anything to her mother just like he can't to her. He put the bill in the pot and Maya came from behind and get one there as well. Matthew sighed and said.

Matthew: "Hey Maya, you should get dressed, it's almost time for you to get to school."

Maya: "yeah yeah. Imma get ready"

Matthew: "good girl"

Maya: "ugh don't say that, weirdo" (*punching his shoulder*)

Matthew: (*chuckled*) "is that a thing only Bry-"

Maya rapidly put a hand on his mouth to shut him up. She glared at him.

Maya: "Don't...please"

Matthew chuckled

Matthew: "(*talking lower*)ok ok, you know if it's getting that serious between you two, you might have to tell mama someday"

Maya: "And we know how she reacts, worse than a dragon. She is going to burn him to ashes and make it fertilizer for her plants"

Matthew: "Yeaaah as I said, maybe (*chuckle*) doubt it will be this soft though. She might tie him on a stick before driving a truck into him"

Maya: "(*gasping*) No way"

Matthew shrugged and said

Matthew: " go get ready Maya (*saying gently*)"

Maya nodded and went to her room. Matthew's phone beeped and he took it out. It was a text from Lauren. He opened it and I was actually a link to another app. He clicked and it went on tiktok. It was a video showing a deer guy talking about the effects of misogyny on work environment for females. He paid close attention till the end of the video and was actually having his thoughts on it. He then got another text from her and this time it was "Hey, can we all agree that males literally think they have the upper hand because they have a dick. Because bitch, as a woman I can't have access or have limited to various ressources and opportunities because a man can decide to bargain with my body as the bounty and the job as the reward. Ain't no way this kind of stuff just be silenced. Like I really appreciate the fact that the dude literally said that it's true both males and females are different but they should have both the same privileges."

Matthew was scratching his neck.

"Well I do understand the various discrimination in society, especially those towards female. I would say people, well mostly of the prior generation still considered old wild ways as laws, such as males going for hunting and female just being mothers and literally everything else at the same time while still being (inferior) to males. And guess what those ridiculous assumptions have been made by males, they kinda have the mind ascending on females for generations now. Some females also believe that they are VOWED to be under Males influence and restrictions, how shameful. I mean, I am a male, yet I doubt I am any better than a female, heck I doubt we should even do comparison. Both males and females can have different opinions on the matter but at the end of the day it's about living all together while helping each other to grow better selves. Although I find it adorable that a male stood up to say stuff like that guy in the video, I still think those kind of subjects are to be taken seriously and I'm talking big. Like I can literally count the number of female president. And some are there just because of the cultural beliefs of the country. Because yes, males have some bad down looks on females but so is the other way around. All of this comes probably from hundreds of years of persecution and I can't blame them, yet I still think peace comes from mutual understanding, communication and intelligent listening. It's not always about who got the biggest or anything stupid, it's about me as an individual what can I do to promote society to a higher point? I believe that's how Furs should behave to get to a higher stage of evolution. But well, we are still far from that, aren't we? Misogyny, Speciesm, body shaming, Mixiesm and so on, all those discrimination for what? Nothing but free hatred towards one another. Lauren you just made me spill out some months of reflection LMAO (*laughing emoji*)"

Matthew looked at the time. Just enough time to take care of his mother before taking a shower. He pocketed his phone and got in the living room. His mother fell asleep already, he sighed and said "oh mama sorry" he still went to rub her tired shoulders. She just sighed in relief and whispered "Thank you son" he just kept rubbing a bit then he got to her feet and gave them gentle squeezes.

After some efforts he was done and she lied on the couch, too exhausted to get anywhere else right now. Matthew wanted to pick her up but she said it was okay it would just wake her up. He nodded and got to his room to get prepared.

He was already thinking about today and smiled. His mother said in a tired shout "Don't forget the boys" he remembered and he chuckled as he made his way towards his brothers room.

(*pad unlocking the door*)

Cassius entered Liam's office with quite an outfit. It was a completely black outfit balancing his fur tone. He had a serious look on his face as he held his tablet tightly in his arms. He got to Liam who was asleep in his chair. He get to nudge him gently. Liam jolted and looked tired as hell. He looked at Cassius and yawned.

Liam: "already?"

Cassius: "Don't worry sir, you have 2 hours, I've figured you might be asleep at this time."

Liam: "You are such a great guy, thank God you're in my life."

Cassius smiled and replied

Cassius: "It's normal sir, I've been working with you for years now. I got to know your habits"

Liam: "How are you still holding up, are you never tired?"

Cassius: "(*chuckle*) Don't worry about me, try waking up entirely and get ready in 2 hours"

Liam was both amazed and scared at times. He knew Cassius since he first started working here. And he became his assistant pretty quickly after showing those remarkable skills. He was glad to have someone so reliable. He sighed as Cassius got out. He looked up a bit.

"Let's find out who's behind all this mess"
