What a day I had, if I was told that what unfolded today would have happened, I would have been in denial, not just denying but would never agree but yet it did.
Today was epic and I'm still trying to put my head together because it would have been split into pieces.
Starting out the day as every regular day with my routine. Waking up by 5am and leaving the house for my usual morning jog around the neighborhood before heading to work and today is the CEO's birthday, just imagine how elated I felt opening my eyes because I got an invitation to the famous Gilbert mansion.
After working in the Gilbert Enterprise for five years, I finally get an invitation to attend Sir Gilbert's birthday, not alone but an invitation for two, so surely, Peridot would accompany me.
Although I'm still yet to tell her because for the past five years, I've been asked why we haven't been invited for his birthday so she isn't having the thought in mind. I only kissed her and left the house with her gown already paid for and under look and key.
Sir Gilbert's birthday is always grandeur, you just can't imagine the stories that would envelope the company the next day from colleagues that attended, only for the rest of us to curse why we weren't invited.
This year is rather exceptional because I got invited, so I guess my morning workout would really be enjoyable because I woke up at my best side and Peridot is still yet to figure out because I still keep my cool. There's a lot that would be known to her later in the day because my surprises for her is more than enough. I know she doesn't like surprises but I have the best one in store.

My workout did actually last an hour and thirty minutes, thirty minutes later than usual.
Getting home I felt a double pointed object held on my head which brought me to an abrupt stop and I was requested for my belongings.
I just only had my headphones as usual when I'm jogging in the morning.
Damn, of all days you guys choose today to ruin my moment, were the words in my head.
I just handed the four guys my headphone and saw how perplexed they were expecting more from me.
The one holding the double pointed object against my head yelled, I'd just blow this useless guys head off, he's just giving us his headset.

Let's leave him, we would meet next time, look at how sweaty he is he was jogging.
So they took the headphone and left me.
I'm only left puzzled to how I coordinated myself with the gun on me head, I really would have been dead some five seconds ago with my intelligent brain spilled all over the road.
I only returned home and kissed Peridot passionately and then took a shower, had my breakfast and left for work.
I arrived earlier than usual with Peridot arriving an hour after I was in then I told her about the Gilbert's invitation and my promotion before spilling out my ordeal in the morning.
I actually didn't want her the way she was in the morning as she was mad that I didn't tell her any of what I just said to her but she held me so tight for a long period of time and never let go of my hand.
No more road work for you, Bosco, I'm not losing you right now and we actually have a party to attend.
The Gilbert's mansion was everything I heard in the stories and was more than I didn't expect. We had the best night as I could feel Peridot's grip on my arms, she never let me go without being by my side.
What a lose it would have been for my damsel , especially myself.
A loss that could never be replaced, I'd surely share my night experience with my colleagues in the office the next day but I forgot it's the weekend so surely I'm locked up with Peridot throughout the weekend.
