Chapter Fifteen – Mornings.

“Rose Greebe...” Martin sighed. “What will we do about her?”

“Is that the reason you woke me up this early and got me here?” Marvin rolled his eyes.

“We have to do something about her.”

“We have no use of her anymore. The headquarters was a good idea, yes. But it's been a month since she had a good idea. I think we can let her go now.” Marvin answered.

Martin nodded, “We should ask 'the boss' first. Maybe he has other plans. Remember what happened last time in Budapest.”

Marvin rolled his eyes “You don't have to remind me.”

“Well it was your fault.” Martin grinned.

“Whatever.. I'm calling him now.” Marvin got off his seat and walked outside of the meeting room they were at.

Martin sat down on the seat that just emptied, and he waited.

His brothers phone call didn't take long.

“Well, he told us we can 'off her' anytime.” Marvin smiled. “And then all work will be done. We are just going to sit back, relax and, well... Enjoy this new world. Our world.”

“What about Blue Edge, and the Greebe's? They are still planning stuff.”

“Oh, I think the company won't be a problem much longer.” Marvin's smile quickly turned to a grin.

“Good morning Mae.” Jessica smiled warmly, when she noticed Mae walk in to the kitchen. She had prepared breakfast, for her and Mae.

“Not that I am complaining or anything but you really don't have to prepare breakfast every morning.” Mae looked at the set table, her plate had two strips of bacon along side with scrambled eggs. Some sliced tomatoes and cucumbers was in a different plate in the middle. Three different kinds of Jams on their own bowls, one Cherry, one Strawberry and one peach.

The ringing sound came from the toaster, notifying that the breads are ready.

“Oh, it's the least I can do after you letting me move in.” Jessica answered, grabbing a basket and carefully picking the warm breads and putting them in it.

“Come on, it's my brothers house.” Mae smiled, the smell of warm breads made her notice how hungry she was.

“You are out of oranges by the way, so... No orange juice. But we got coffee.” Jessica placed the basket on the table then reached for the coffee. “Oh, you sit down.” she told Mae, after noticing her watching Jessica blankly.

Mae did what she was told, and looked at her plate while Jess poured the coffee to the mugs.

“So what's the plan today?” Jess asked, sitting down.

Mae shrugged “Like always, I guess.” she grabbed the fork and began to eat from her plate.

Jess sighed, knowing what 'like always' meant. “I'm sick of not being able to do anything. We should be able to do something from the outside!”

“I know... But my father said not to mess with it outside. He trusts Rose.”

“And you don't?” Jess raised an eyebrow.

Mae shook her head, taking a slice of tomato.

“How about inside? I still have unlimited access don't I?” Jessica also took a slice of tomato, eating it with a bit of her eggs.

“What's the point? I don't even know what we are trying to do! I mean fine, we are trying to get to the source and be the ones who control this, program. Or, I don't know... Shut it down? If you ask me, the whole idea was stupid from the start!”
