Missing Wit

7: Hatred

  Kurt and Lina were in the office. Kurt was at his computer in his office; Lina was talking to someone on the phone. At the white round table in the middle of the office, two people were arguing over a topic. It was dark, it had been fifteen minutes since work had ended. Except for Kurt and Lina, only one office was occupied. Inside this office was an old man with white hair and a beard, and black eyes. The man did not do any work, he was only reading a newspaper on the Internet. He had his feet on the table, holding a cup of tea. Judging by his appearance, he was in good spirits.

Kurt was at the computer in his office. He was busy working on the Personality Project. However, his brain was having trouble keeping up with this work pace. His eyes were closing from time to time, and he was dozing off for a few seconds. Although he forced himself to work for a while, he eventually gave in to his body and his brain's calls. With a sudden movement, he closed the lid holding his laptop screen and leaned his head on the table where he was sitting. Offices had no walls, were covered with glass. Therefore, when Kurt turned his head to the side, he could see Lina talking on the phone. Tired Kurt watched Lina speaking on the phone for a while.

Lina was on the phone in her office talking to an investor about the financing of the Personality Project. Although the company's equity was substantial, it was not enough to take the risk of such a project. For this reason, Lina was trying to attract investors to ensure the continuation of the project. "It will increase the usage area of robots. In this project, robots will be able to correct their own mistakes, so they will be used in other areas." That's what she told investors, she. It wasn't exactly a lie, but Lina didn't believe what she was saying was entirely true either.

"Just the thing you like," Eric said.

"I couldn't say that's wrong," Paul replied.

"That's right then."

"Not every wrong is right," Paul said. With that answer, Eric realized that the chess game played was harder than he thought. Paul backed to the subject after his answer:

Lina had finished talking on the phone. She had made the conversation with the phone on her desk. Because, the biggest thing that Lina hated in this life was working outside of work time. It was one of the rare things that Lina differed from Kurt, who had a lot in common on everything. Lina hung up the phone. She was sitting on the table, she. Turning to her left, she noticed Kurt staring at her with her head on the table. Lina understood that Kurt was tired, but the sister couldn't stop herself from laughing. As Kurt lifted his head, Lina motioned for him to lie down again. Then she turned to the old man reading the newspaper in his office. She gestured him to come over. The man shook his head sideways and continued reading the newspaper. But Lina was quite persistent. She continued to signal to the old man that she should come. Despite this, the man kept ignoring Lina. As soon as Lina grabbed a pen from her office, she rushed out. Then he threw his pen into the old man's office.

The man, enjoying his newspaper, was startled by the sound of a click through the glass door of his office. Looking through the door, he saw Lina with her hands on the large table in the middle of the floor, glaring at him. He took his feet off the table and walked out of the office. He picked up the pen that had been thrown at his office door and walked over to Lina. Lina was smiling, probably the happiness of getting the man out of the room.

"Paul!" said Lina, "I've finally managed to get a few."

"Good," Paul replied.

Lina closed one eye and said, "I guess you don't really care." She had taken her hands off the table. Then he slowly took the pen Paul was holding from Paul.

"I'm not sure, Lina," Paul said, scratching his head. "What is Kurt doing?" he asked later.

"What do you think?" she replied with a question. This question was actually a question that answered Kurt from every angle. Kurt lived a routine life. It was enough to look at the clock to know what to do. So Lina's answer to Paul's question was more than enough.
