David bounced on the balls of his feet, his fingers drumming a happy tattoo on the table. The blueprints for his dream home lay spread out before him, a culmination of months of planning and design. He could almost feel the sun on his face, feel the warmth radiating from the fireplace.

He'd dreamt of this for so long, and now, it was finally taking shape. He felt a surge of energy, a feeling that urged him to get to work. His project, his home, was close to being finished. He could almost taste his project's completion.

As he approached the construction site, he saw another house. Another house that was perfect. He smiled, and went to congratulate the other architect.
