Kapitel 258: Chapter 258: Plans In Motion (Part 4)

The following day, Don woke up early, as was now his custom, feeling the remnants of sleep fade as he rose from his bed. 

A quick glance at the clock confirmed the hour—5:30 AM on the dot. Stretching briefly, he rolled his shoulders and let out a soft grunt. "Alright, let's get this day started," he muttered to himself before heading to the bathroom. 

He quickly got his morning routine out of the way and capped it off with the usual jog, which took him through the quiet streets of their neighborhood. 

The cool air nipped at his skin as he maintained a steady pace, his breath forming faint clouds.

When he returned, the house was still quiet. The only exception being Winter, who was standing at the stove, busy flipping pancakes with a perfection that could only come from her android nature. 

The scent of the warm batter mixed with syrup filled the air, subtly enticing Don as he entered the kitchen.
