Beginning of my new series! (Excerpt)

This is the first paragraph:

     I woke up in my New York City apartment at my usual time, 7 o’clock on the dot. I wake up that time every morning, no matter what. It seemed like a normal day so far. I got a shower, brushed my teeth, got dressed, then gathered my things for the day and headed out the door to go to work. I walk to work everyday for the fun of it and for the exercise. I really enjoy a morning walk in New York, the feeling is great. I usually get to work around 7:30am, but this day was different, someone that I never saw before stopped me on the street.
