The apartment was tastefully decorated. He felt a slight buzz at his hip, reaching down he looked at his cell. A new email was waiting to be read. He thought for a moment wether or not too read.

And before him was two women, and an older man. He was frustrated, recently they had been asking a lot of him. Bending his rules one by one.
