POV — MONDAY MORNING

7:30 AM | Monday | Hayes Penthouse, Manhattan, New York.

It was a typical Monday morning at the Hayes residence. Alexander was already dressed in his charcoal-grey tailored suit, standing near the bedroom’s floor-to-ceiling windows while reviewing emails on his phone. He had an important board meeting scheduled for nine and was already mentally occupied with the day’s business. Meanwhile, their two-year-old daughter, Elena, was sitting on the enormous bed, refusing to finish her breakfast while her nanny tried to convince her otherwise. Alexander occasionally glanced towards his daughter, reminding her to eat before returning to his emails. His attention eventually shifted towards the walk-in wardrobe, where Ava had been getting ready for quite some time. Several outfits were scattered across the sofa, and she was still deciding what to wear for her lunch plans. Checking his wristwatch, Alexander let out a quiet sigh before walking towards the wardrobe entrance. @Alex: “Ava, sweetheart, are you planning on getting ready today, or should I reschedule my entire morning around your wardrobe?” he remarked, a faint amused smile appearing on his otherwise composed face.
