I Was Seeing My Husband's Counselor

Chapter 10 Meeting The Counselor

Triton arrives at the counselor's office.
Secretary: Hi. May I help you?
Triton: Umm, yes, I'm here to see Ms. Adrian.
Secretary: Have you already made an appointment?
Triton: Well, I spoke with her before I came.
Secretary: Give me one moment to page her!
Secretary: Ms. Adrian, there's a man here named Triton to see you. He said he had spoken with you over the phone earlier.
Adrian: Yes, send him back.
Secretary: Okay, you can go to the back, it's the last room on the right.
Triton: Thank you very much.
Triton walks to Adrian's office; she greets him at the door
Adrian: Hi, Mr.Triton, how are you?
Triton shakes Adrian's hand and stares at Adrian's face and body drooling on the inside of his head
Adrian: Mr. Triton?
Triton: Umm, Yes, I'm making it! Today hasn't been the best day!
Adrian: I was worried about you for a moment, though I lost you.
They both started laughing
Adrian: So, what brings you by?
Triton: Well, it's my wife and I. We are constantly having disagreements.
Adrian: May I ask what the disagreements are about?
Triton: Well, a few days ago, I lost my job! I was only trying to do the right thing. When I represented it to corporate, they overlooked the good and made the whole plan terrible.
Adrian: What was this master plan?
Triton: My partner Chris and I were looking to open a Help Homeless Center. It would have been amazing; many homeless people are in such a well-paid city. We were going to have apartments on the inside. A job agency, which would have helped them get back on their feet. Even drug rehabilitation on the inside to help the ones who were on drugs. You know life could be a bit stressful sometimes, so I'm not saying some of them may not been on drugs. I'm sure not all of them, but that's what the rehabilitation program on the inside would have been for. The corporation didn't like the idea of it possibly being thugs who were homeless and on drugs, which could ruin their reputation.
Adrian: Actually, that was a fantastic idea! How much was it to get it started?
Triton: 42 million to get everything we needed! However, the government would have helped, so we would have gotten that back doubled.
Adrian: You're brilliant, Mr. Triton. Don't let one bad apple stop the show. I may be able to help. I have a cousin who does substantial business loans. I'll talk to him later and text you his number.
Triton: I didn't come here to be a burden on you.
Adrian: Oh, please. I love seeing my clients happy, and in any way I can help, I will.
Triton: Thank you so much. That would be so big! Maybe save my marriage; she's been on me hard lately about a job!
Adrian: Anyway, I can help! Well, is there anything else you would love to talk about?
Triton: No, that will be all!
Adrian: Well, it was nice talking to you, Mr.Triton. You will hear from me later tonight!
Triton: Thanks again, Ms. Adrian!
Adrian: Please! Call me Adrian!
Triton: I'll talk to you later, Adrian!
Triton leaves out of Adrain's office and heads home.
