How to use "Reluctantly" in context?
Resentment, frustration and anger mix together in a boiling cauldron in my stomach as I reluctantly get out of bed. After all, it's only 6am and I'm already behind schedule. Unfortunately, today is not the day for laziness. I need to get my head down and buckle down if I want to make it to my 8hr work day unscathed.
As I get dressed, the resentment within me only intensifies. I'm not a slovenly person, but this morning I feel like I'm battling an opposing force. It seems like I can't get my clothes on or fasten my bra fast enough.
