Brown box loves to hide what's inside

It was a glorious morning which wasn't a surprise for this time of year. In fact every day this week had been a belter. It was Thursday and the weather was set nice for the weekend. What a great day to be alive thought John. A nice house with a great wife. What a perfect little life.

His coffee tasted the sweetest his cotton shirt felt the softest. John truly was a lucky man. With structure, integrity and respect.

"There's a package here for you" Danniella called out

Ah yes, that would be the nose hair trimmer that I brought from amazon.com thought John. Things just kept getting better for him. Even though he was due into the office he didn't do much. He just made sure that everything ran smoothly. No-fuss. He wondered what colour underwear his personal assistant would have on today. He liked it when she surprised him.

Finishing his coffee with one swift motion he got up from his chair and headed towards the front door. He had enough time before work to quickly open up his lovely purchase from amazon, he loved that site. If he wanted something to keep the wife happy he could buy it, if he wanted something for the house he could buy it. Being on a six-figure wage meant that he could basically buy anything he wanted, but even then he had to admit he loved the convenience.

As he picked up the package he noticed it was smaller than he expected and did not come in an Amazon box. How odd he thought. It was in a plain brown paper box. John felt the weight of it in his hands. It was not heavy. He passed it from right hand to left hand and gave it a shake. His curiosity nearly got the better of him and he wanted to open it up there and then, but he thought better of it. Danniella was bustling around the house doing this and doing that. Doing a lot of nothing. Acting busy, but achieving nothing. It was just what she did. She didn't have to clean as they hired a maid, but she still felt the need to pick items up and re-arrange them. John couldn't remember if he had brought any more underwear online for his lover, but he was sure that he hadn't. Best not to take chances though he thought as he walked down the long open hallway to his office.

He sat down in his office chair in front of his brand new apple mac computer. He was completely puzzled, completely stumped. What an earth was in the box. Only good things seemed to happen in Johns life. After leaving high school he was nothing but popular, he had all the friends he could ever need. He was a success in every aspect of his life. What was in the box?

He opened it cautiously, slowly and steadily. To cut the sellotape he opened a pair of scissors and exposed the blade. Once that was cut he lifted the lid. How interesting he thought as he looked down into the contents of the small box. It was a pair of red lacey underwear. Silk and velvet. Classy and overpriced as it didn't contain much material considering the asking price. A pair he forgot that he had brought. John leaned back in his chair. John couldn't help, but imagine how perfect it would look on his assistant when they did it on his desk. He shut up the box. It was time to get to work now and despite all of John positive attributes getting to work on time really wasn't one of them. He just enough time to say goodbye to his trophy wife. She was beautiful in her own right and John still lusted after her very much. Maybe John's only true fault was the fact he was never content and always wanted more.

"What's in the box?" Danniella asked as she spied the box John was carrying down by his side.

"Oh, just business cards" John lied without thinking

"Okay honey, have a lovely day" Danniella responded with a smile and the pair kissed goodbye. John picked up his tesla key's and headed for the door. Having three women on the go wasn't always easy, but John had become adept in lying. Whether he learnt that from being in big business or he just took to it naturally he didn't know.

Stepping out onto the front lawn and into the bright sunshine John thought again how lucky he was. Fast cars, Fast women and a good job. His grass was very green, too green. It was painted on.

As he strode towards his grey tesla he noticed something out of the corner of his eye. Something moving hastily towards him. How could that be? Someone had jumped the fence and they had a bat. It was an angry bald man his face screwed up in anger.

"Uhm can I help you?" John asked rather casually and the man came closer and closer

"You slept with my wife you fucking bastard" the little man spat out in a hiss of rage. There wasn't time to think and John didn't even brace for the blow. It cracked him in the side of his head and that was him done pretty much instantly. He flopped down on his green lawn covered in red. As again and again, the angry man struck. The little brown box slipped from his grasp and there it remained till the detectives came.
