     I drove forward to my main office and turned into the lot. I locked my car as I stepped out. I opened the door to the office and walked in to grab a few papers. Some of the TVs were left on by staff and I had to turn them off. I grabbed my papers and walked out the doors and turned out the lights in my office.

     I parked in the garage when I saw my assistant Anton. He is a well trusted friend of mine and usually helps out with my cars. I handed my keys to him.

     "Hey Narcissus, good day at the office?" He had my keys in hand.

"Yes Anton. profits have grown," I stated calmly.

"Well then, I'll let you enjoy your day. Farewell Narcissus," he said walking away.

"Goodbye Anton," I said walking to my elevator.

     I rose up the elevator calmly with small music playing in the background. I stepped out and I found my keys were polished and neatly hung up on the wall. Damn Anton needed a raise. I would have to schedule it for later.

     I took a sip of my champagne and sat back down on my chair and looked back out the window. I could see gunshots and bombs on one of the lesser known streets far away in the suburbs outside the city. Another day, another death.

    That's what you get when you work in the city of the cosmos.
