UNTITLED FOR NOW – ADDITION #5

ALEX – TOP OF THE WORLD

It seems like half an hour before I flag down a cab and another half an hour before I get to my office building. I probably needed however much time that was; I think I am breathing normal again. Get a grip. I push the plans I had with Nicole out of my mind. Never mind the images of how fucking hot she is and who she might be fending off. I smile as I imagine maybe she is picking up that knockout waitress for us. I just feel awful leaving her but I love that about Nicole. She gets this.

I get up to my office with my boss and the board waiting for me. They tell me again that Jeff is being let go and how they see it going down tomorrow. I am to assemble the team in the morning, inspire their hope, move them forward. Will I accept the executive VP position? Hell, yeah. We will have a series of strategy meetings next week. No problem, I will clear my schedule. Now, why don’t I go on back to my lovely wife? You bet.
