![]() It should be a lot like yesterday, to be honest. There's no new forms or anything being issued today. It was becoming a regular routine for him now. He stepped inside, getting respite from the cold Manetin weather. "I love you, Papa." The foal looked at the Inspector with his deep blue eyes. "Have a good day at school and don't forget to turn in your homew- oh!" The young colt suddenly reached up and hugged his forelegs around the Inspector's neck. He quietly walked over to his son's bed and did the same to him as he had done with his wife. ![]() The colt and the old mare slept in beds on each side of the room, while the red stallion that was his uncle slept on a mat in the center. He then entered the other bedroom that his son, mother in law, and uncle shared. "I will." As quietly as he came, the Inspector left the room. He leaned in and kissed her on the forehead, just below her horn. He snuck back into his room where his wife lay, still snoozing. The Inspector read through the story, then set the paper down. There was an interesting story about a Saddle Arabian athlete named Aerial Ace who had apparently murdered his manager and fled the country. He had a few extra minutes before having to leave, so he read the paper. The Inspector had made his own breakfast and lunch that morning, not wanting to wake up his wife. Fortunately, he would not have to cut off any of his utilities. The Inspector was disappointed to have discovered that his rent had gone up last night, and his meager salary of 45 bits for yesterday's work didn't fully cover the new cost. He had gotten up extra early today, he didn't want to take any chances with getting up late again, so that was a plus. ![]() The next morning, the Inspector sat at the table in his apartment, drinking from a cup of coffee.
