If My Life Were Perfect - Chapter 1

I would wake up with the warm sun beating on my face, i am on the most comfortable hammock overlooking a white sandy beach. The palms rustle in the wind as a cool breeze blows my hair as if calling me to rise and get started on my chores for the day. My feet sink into the warm sand as I look up at the majestic clouds looming over me in the clear blue skhovering. The pillars of white slowly make their way to the west, like giant sky glaciers they melt into new shapes according to the whim of the wind. I turn to walk to my beach house, which is my house, in west side. Walking inside, it's just me to enjoy it alone. The sun's light bathes everything with vibrant color that seems to sing to my eyes, the red of the apples on the table, the green of the bamboo plant in the vase, the yellow of the refrigerator magnet shaped like a smiley face... The first thing I do is put on some music. I turn on the holographic computer which creates a screen right in front of me. I scan through my softdrive using hand gestures, and finally find what I'm looking for, baba yetu. It starts to play, and the magic of surround sound fills me with joy. The floorboards hum with sound, the walls are singing to me, the song fills me with happiness, just what I need to get me going for the day, I take a shower with the music playing, then eat some melon and hot tea for breakfast. 7:00 beeps. Time to get out of the house. I walk out to the garage which opens as I approach. My black mazerati is waiting for me. She knows when I'm close, and turns on automatically. I get in feel the seats adjusting to my weight, the car is holding me. The seatbelts click automatically. "Welcome" comes a pleasant voice from the console. Before it finishes, I am already speeding out of my driveway in rear gear. I get out on to the road, and simply FLY. The cars shocks are so absorbent, not to mention the road was recently paved, it feels like I am driving on air. "In a hurry today Mr. Bond?" (I had the car programmed to call me Bond) "If I really was in a hurry I would have taken the Helicopter," I answer to the car. "Why didn't you?" The car asks. "Well, we both know you get grumpy If i don't take you out for your walk!" just then I hit the gas full speed and go off a cliff and land on the other side, skidding and doing a 570 degree spin. I am breathing deeply, the thrill is just what I need. "You've had your fun," says the voice. "Now it's my turn." I laugh "You got it darling." The car drives itself back onto the main road and heads to work while I enjoy the scenery and scan the onboard holographic computer to catch up with the plans for the day.
