The thought of getting out of bed seemed like an insurmountable task to Charles. His body felt leaden, his spirit flat. The day stretched before him, an endless expanse of obligations. The world felt devoid of energy.

He glanced out the window, watching Mr. Petrov’s gate open. A shiny car was being driven out by the driver. He sighed.

Later, he watched Mr. Petrov and his wife, laughing. Charles felt a twist of annoyance.

The next day, a private plane took off from the private airport just outside of town. Charles felt a wave of emptiness. He turned away from the window.
