##Morning Tribulations

"Get up. It's my turn in the bed." Richard in his stained tank top and underwear stood over Grant's bed.

"Five more minutes," Grant muttered.

"No, we had a deal. This is my bed." Richard jumped and landed on Grant. Grant screamed in pain, but Richard refused to move.

"Alright, I'll go." When Grant got up, Richard made himself larger to cover the bed and prevent Grant from returning.

Grant walked down the stairs to the kitchen and opened a bag of chips. The chips disappeared. He opened the cookie jar and watched them decline.

"You know the drill." Vince stood behind him eating everything. Grant sighed as he started eating a banana. When he finished, he went to the bathroom. As he stared in the mirror, a voice spoke behind him.

"Come on. You can do better." Lilly tilted her sunglasses down. "There's a hot man in there. I know it."

"You probably think I'm hot right now," Grant said.

"You're right I do." Lilly licked her lips. "You're irresistible."

"Okay, this is getting weird." Hailey stepped through the room and pushed Lilly out. "Grant, you have to take pride in your appearance. You are already you're biggest critic so you have to be your biggest cheerleader."

"I still say you should give the house to me." Tyler poked his head inside. "I'd be a much better caretaker than you."

"You're dead." Grant started to shave.

"Don't remind me. You know. Screw you and you're constant living. Why is life wasted on people like you," Tyler said.

"Because you already wasted yours." Grant smiled at his own joke.

"That was good," Hailey said.

"No, it wasn't," Tyler said.

"Shut up." Hailey pushed him out of the room. Robert stood in the doorway in his military fatigues.

"Remember to advocate for yourself but do it calmly," he said.

"I really thought the spirit of wrath would be more aggressive," Grant replied.

"Rage is a tool, and I scream every time I'm alone," Robert said.

"Makes sense." Grant got in his car to go to work.

"Are you ready dear-boy? Time is money." Ulysses was wearing his suit and monocle.

"Absolutely." Grant drove to work. Life was fine with the seven deadly spirits.
