STH Chapter 7



A smile appeared on his cold face as he stared out into the city. He slightly nodded his head, watching the people walk on the sidewalks. The cars that moved about on the streets. The birds that flew in the air. He watched this all.



"Mr. Summer" His assistant walked in through the open double doors, "Your meeting is about to begin shortly." She pushed her black framed glasses on her sharp nose. He chuckled loudly, turning away from the window. "What is so amusing sir?" she asked.

"This world, Chrissy," He walked over to her, "It amuses me."

"I do not see anything amusing about this world, sir." Chrissy admitted as he walked past her.

 "But I do." He waltzed out of the office and down the hall, "You see Chrissy, I desire everything." He began to explain as their bodies turned at the corner and headed for the elevator that was located at the end of the hall.

"But there are those who do not desire everything. They are satisfied with everything in their life." They entered the elevator and Chrissy pressed the button 70. The doors closed and the elevator began to move. "They live the same routine every day and only wish for what they want. I am amused about such simplicity." The elevator stopped and the doors opened. They marched out of the elevator and down the hall.

"That is amusing, sir." Chrissy agreed, stopping in front of a pair of double doors. She knocked on the doors and they opened. Revealing a long table that was accompanied by several different men in suits. All spinning their chairs around to see the man that owned it all.

"Welcome, gentlemen." He said raising his arms up. The men at the table stood to their feet as he made his way over to the empty chair that was at the end of the table. When he sat down, the rest followed.

"Now tell me, gentlemen, how are things going with my corporation?" He smiled, binding his fingers together.
