Just another perfect day, just chilling in my massive garden in front of my mansion. It's not easy living this is life, I mean what am I going to do all day? I have so many choices and not enough days. I sigh and lean back in my chair, sunbathing in the sun with a glass of whiskey on the side. All my life has been mapped out for me. My parents made sure to leave me everything when they died, their money, their house and all their possesions. I have all the money I'd ever need in life, never had to work a job. Because rich people don't have to work, they just pay the people to work for them. Apart form my mom and dad I never knew any other family members, I do know that my dad had a brother, but that they didn't keep contact after he tried to steal some money from my dad. And you know, who needs family when everyone wants to be your friend, when you can do anything you want and don't have any worries?
After dinner I stepped in my car and drove to the city, some friends invited me to go gambling with them. All fun and games ofcourse, I never really played my money away because that's just a stupid way to do it but my friends seem to enjoy it. I walked into the casino and instantly got welcomed by the owner of the place. ''Hello Stephen, it's good to see you again. All drinks are on the house alright?'' He said laughing and guided me towards where my friends were sitting. I laughed back at him, ''All good, thank you for the warm welcome.'' People like to get me things for free in the hope I come back more often, ofcourse I accept all free stuff they give me, that's how to stay rich ofcourse. I joined my friends at the table and we started a game of poker, not all too serious ofcourse. My friends did not really care about their money since they were all rich too, ofcourse us people are not going to hang around with some poor people who didn't make it in life. Then in the middle of the game my phone started ringing, I stood up and walked away from the table, picking up the call. ''Hey Matthew, what's up?'' I said. ''Yoo Stephen, you said it was alright if the party was at your place tonight right?'' He asked, ''Yeah ofcourse, I'll join later tonight, I'll tell my maid Ruth to let you guys in and then I'll join later tonight.'' I answered and hung up the phone. I walked back to the table and we played a few more games of poker.
After an hour or two I left the casino and went back to my mansion, the party had already started. Cars we're parked all over my driveway, loud music was playing and people we're everywhere. Seems like Matthew his party was a bomb again. I walked in through the front door and heard Matthew his voice through the speakers. ''The king has entered the building everyone, give him a drink. Now the party can really start!'' He screamed and drinks were being pushed in my hand, I laughed, walked to matthew, grabbed his hand and gave him a pat on the shoulder. ''Good to see you dude.'' I said and he laughed. ''Let's get this party started, I heard that Jason had some cocaine and they're going wild in the second kitchen.'' He said and pulled my hand to get me through the crowd of people. God this party was already a mess, luckily all my expensive stuff was in the safe. I kept all my money there too, never trust the banks is what my parents taught me, so I never did and keeped everything with me.
It was around 3 AM when people suddenly started screaming louder than the music and everyone started running out of the house. I was already standing outside on the driveway to smoke a sigaret with some girls. I looked confused at the people that started getting in their cars and drove away, why the hell we're people leaving so suddenly? Then I noticed the smoke coming from a part of the building. People ran to me saying something about a fire in the main livingroom. ''Fuck you gotta be kidding me man!'' I said and picked up my phone to call 911 and the fire station. I saw my mansion burn away in front of my house, it was spreading like wild fire. The mansion was burning in front of my eyes. The fire department had arrived but they couldn't contain the fire. The realistion kicked in that all my money was in that mansion, they had to work harder, fuck me. If they didn't stop this fire my life would be over.
