Multiple notifications rang in Gray's head as soon as he arrived back at their apartment. He was alone, with Lily going to school.
Gray slumped onto the couch. He exhaled loudly, letting his body get loose for a moment. It was odd for him to have this much free timea after spending years of his life slaving because of work.

He replayed the entire lunch meeting in his head. More than anything, Gray felt that this was an opportunity, not just a job.
A single step toward something much bigger.
It wasn't going to be hard... at least, he hoped.
