Curiously, for the most part, it’s another relaxed day. Change is on the horizon. James Taylor, sitting at his desk, wondered more and more how he was to grow accustomed to his new surroundings. Taylor has a new job. It’s his intent to get settled in as soon as possible.

“I have a new desk and significantly more responsibilities,” telling his best friend, Taylor reveals. “That’s what comes with being promoted to Senior International Political Correspondent.”

Change, as his friends know, isn’t part of Taylor’s DNA. It’s not his custom to just change overnight. Taylor has people reporting to him.

A drabble consists of exactly 100 words. The read time is short. Please remain with the article for at least 30 seconds. I would appreciate it if you would leave a comment, highlight anything of interest, and clap.
