Boykewich International Headquarters
10:45 AMBen has been working hard being his own assistant taking phone calls, and going over reports that needed the attention of the corporation. He was burning the candle at both ends, but he had done this once before only a few short years before, so he knew what he needed. His medication was running low, and he would soon have to replace it, unfortunately the only way to do that was to see a therapist recommended to him by his own psychiatrist. His life was less complicated now since he had left the hotel, to save money. He never intended to stay so long, and until his new personal venture was allocated he had no spare cash to live in the hotel. He moved out to make sure he had enough money to stay in Glenn Valley. He was happy that his father and Grandfather's were all workaholics because the office itself was in reality a hidden studio apartment. The couch folded out into a bed. The office was equipped with a fully functional bathroom, closet, and even a small refrigerator. He was content since he could now work without stopping, and not worry about cab fair. He was also very neat, and tidy, so even when the cleaning service came through no one had any idea he was living in the office. However he was having problems sleeping, because he was constantly plagued with dreams, he thought were over with. He called home every day four times a day, and unfortunately he may have to miss "Thanksgiving", so he was very upset, as were his family.
Chloe: (stood in the doorway watching Ben work) Hey, Big Brother burning the mid night oil.
Ben: Chloe it's 10'o clock in the morning. (shocked at her analogy)
Chloe: I know that, but from what I've seen you have been here since midnight.
Ben: What? Guess I must have over worked. But, these financial reports have to be looked at and I have 48 weeks worth of reports to view from 1200 butcher shop location, not to mention all meat processing reports, and the farm reports from our produce, or producer's, or Farmer's... I don't know how to acknowledge it.
Chloe: Yeah, that is a good excuse. But, I am in charge of internal affairs Ben. I had the security team track, and log every person who enters and leaves this building, according to them you haven't left in the past three days.
Ben: I was busy what can I say.
Chloe: Okay, then explain your suit. (noticing that it is the same dark gray suit he wore 3 days ago)
Ben: What about it? (the suit had been cleaned he did it himself)
Chloe: It's the fourth time I have seen you wearing it.Ben: Maybe I think it looks good on me.
Chloe: It doesn't, but I want to know why I have only seen you wear four suits in the past two weeks of you being here.
Ben: Fine, (doesn't want to beat around the bush) If you must know Chloe I only brought a few suits with me.
Chloe: Why haven't you bought more?
Ben: Why do I need more suits.
Chloe: Because you are the C.E.O. of a large billion dollar corporation and you should look the part.
Ben: Chloe I look good no matter how many times I wear a suit, so I always look the part.
Chloe: Ben you know that is not what I'm talking about.
Ben: Fine what are you talking about.
Chloe: Ben how much money do you have on you right now.
