Friday
Rhys Matthews’ pebble grey Cesare sofa is housing a broken man, Rhys lays there staring up at the ceiling through bloodshot eyes, a knock at the door stops the tiredness from consuming him as he climbs to his feet and heads over to open it, he looks through the peephole first though, maybe a little bit of paranoia is setting in. He sighs before opening the door up to the cameraman that has been documenting his week for the CMV network special.
Cameraman
Damn Rhys, you’re looking rough buddy, what happened?
Rhys
Ah, I’d rather not talk about it, listen, I’m not really feeling it today, do you mind if we just film sometime next week and pretend it’s this Friday?
Cameraman
Hey, no problem man, whatever you need.
Rhys
Thanks, I’ll let you know and we’ll try and get some good content.
The two say their goodbyes and Rhys gets ready to leave.
Later that day Rhys hops out of his Uber and heads into an apartment block carrying 2 bags, he makes his way up to the 7th floor and raps on the door of 704, a few moments pass before his sister, Grace, opens the door with a big smile which falters a bit when she sees Rhys looking rough.
Grace
You look like shit…
Rhys’ face breaks into a smile as he brings his sister in for a big hug.
Rhys
I’ve had a tough week, now where’s the Birthday Gir-
He can’t even finish his question before both his legs are attacked by two children…
Boy and Girl
UNCLE RHYS!
Rhys tousles their hair and prises his legs free before kneeling down and looking from one to the other.
Rhys
Look at how big you guys are getting! Lemme see those muscles!
Rhys and the kids flex goofily.
You guys will be as big as Bob Luger soon! Now! I heard it was somebody’s birthday today?
The girl beams at Rhys.
Maya! Happy Birthday! These are for you…
Rhys rummages through his bag and pulls out A newly released Amber Reed figure and hands it to an overjoyed Maya
Maya
Thanks Uncl-
Rhys
wait, wait a second…
Rhys rummages through his bag once more, pulls out a Ellie Quinn figure and hands it over to Maya, who is shaking with excitement.
Maya
Thank you so much Uncle Rhys!
Maya gives Rhys a big hug and starts taking figures out of the boxes. Rhys gestures to the boy who has a little tinge of disappointment across his face.
Rhys
Hey, Jack, did you think I’d forget about you?
Rhys pulls out a Ugbjorn figure and hands it over to Jack, who’s face lights up instantly.
Well don't just stand there staring! Go play!
Maya and Jack run off with figures in hand and set up a wrestling show on the living room floor. Rhys and Grace stand in the kitchen cradling cups of coffee and having a nice little chat.
Rhys
Oh, it’s nothing, just this guy at work, he’s been fucking with me...
Grace
You know I worry about you Rhys, remember last time you had trouble at work, it’s not healthy, we thought you’d lost it.
Rhys
Listen, it’s fine… I’m fine, he’s just trying to get under my skin.
The conversation is interrupted by the sound of paper on floor, Grace looks over at the door and sees an envelope had been slid under the door. She picks it up and returns to the kitchen, Grace opens the envelope and reads as she sips on her coffee, her grip on the mug loosens as her eyes widen and she takes a sharp breath, the cup smashes on the tile floor leaving a puddle of coffee and broken porcelain. Rhys looks at her with confusion and concern.
What’s wrong?
Grace’s hands shake as holds the letter, after a while with no response Rhys walks over to her, avoiding the broken mug, he takes the letter from her and reads-

Rhys’ breathing accelerates, his sister’s eyes well up as she asks…
Grace
What am I going to do... the kids, there aren’t any other apartments around here that will be safe..
Her voice breaks and she starts sobbing.
I can barely afford to live here, how am I going to find someplace else.
Rhys quickly puts his arms around her before taking her head in his hands and looking into her eyes sincerely...
Rhys
You don’t need to do anything, I know it’s hard, but you've got to put on a brave face for those kids, I’m gonna sort all of this out.
Rhys kisses her forehead and cleans up the coffee, before saying his goodbyes to the children and Grace. He shuts the door behind him and his demeanour changes, pure rage fills his face as he storms down the corridor of the apartment block.
