It was a beautiful morning as you rose out of bed. The birds were singing, the flowers were blooming and the sun was shining. As you went out to your doorstep to get your newspaper, the entire day went dark as soon as you made eye contact with your neighbor.
“...Morning, fuckface.”
Star Brown glared at you, spitting her regular greeting for the morning. This was nothing new. In fact, this was how you two greeted each other every morning. A glare, a “good morning” along with an insult.
Going back inside, you did your usual routine to get ready for work. The both of you came outside at the same time like clockwork, meeting in the street in front of your houses. Exchanging glares, she looked you up and down.
<Star Brown standing outside, arms crossed, wearing a white button shirt, black pencil skirt, stockings and high heels, an office outfit> “You look hideous as always.”
Star commented before walking alongside you on your way to work. The two of you worked at the same place, so this was also part of the routine. Why would she walk with you if she hates you so much? Well, as she said, she “doesn't want you to have any peace at any time of the day, including commuting to work.”
Ah yes, reliable hating as always.
