The Fall

chapter 2

The ODUA STATE is bright with the radiance of the sun hitting even the tallest of the skyscrapers. The State is bustling with  hundreds of civilians moving  to and fro their work places or destinations. The roads are busy with different vehicles and speed trains.

The most fascinating thing are the skyscrapers, hundreds of blocks towards the sky, on some of them are gigantic poster boards, displaying holographic adverts of different brands and products. The siren of the police drones patrolling the state can be heard.

Kunle parks his car in the parking lot of the company, he is smartly dressed in an attire of native fabric suit, he carries a tablet. The department of human affairs is a glass  skyscraper with a cylinder shape. Kunle waves at the security men at the entrance and they pave way for him to pass, the men are dressed in a camo that consist of different native fabric colours. The glass door opens and a computer voice greets;

"Welcome Mr Kunle, have a blissful day."

"Thank you!."

Another glass door opens and rays of red laser light floods Kunle, it's the security system running a scan on his body.

"You may proceed Mr Kunle. Another computer voice comments."

"Thank you. He adjust his glasses."

The security check is over, now he passes the reception and waves at the receptionist, the ladies there dressed in native fabric gowns, smiles at him as he walks by. Now he is at the main hall, the centre is a ring that is the same to the first floor, the elevators can be seen descending and ascending, of course everything is made of glass.

There are large screens at almost every corner that displays holographic informations about the company.

He takes the elevator to the fourth floor, he walks by the corridor, there are offices at both his right and left and they are transparent. He waves at the staffs and they wave back, Micheal sights him from his office and joins him.

"Hey how are you doing?"

"Am great, good morning."

"Yeah, look kunle briefing is about thirty minutes from now, we are to assemble at the conference Hall on the sixth floor."

"Okay, I get it. Thanks man."

Micheal Pat's him on his shoulder and turns back to his office. Kunle arrives at his office door, and slides his card at the sensor. With a beep the led light turns green, a computer voice welcomes him and he push the glass door open. His office is very wide and  there's a great view of the city, of course the walls are glass. He drops his tab on his table and sits.

He taps the screen of his desktop and it comes to life, he clicks on a folder and connects his tab to the desktop. He will transfer some files to his desktop. He opens the report he has been working on and scans through, again the questions floods his mind. He removes his glasses and rubs his eyes.

Just then a speaker anounces the commencement of the briefing. Kunle leaves his office and makes it to the elevator, the elevator door is about to close but a hand from the inside stops it. Kunle quickly enters, his colleagues we're onboard also and they shared pleasantries.

Soon all the staffs are sitted in the conference room, with the seats arranged in an arc form. There's a large screen hanging on the wall and the room has a lot of sound proof foams on the wall,  the screen comes to life, projecting data's that are to be treated in the meeting. The CEO of the company, a person of Mrs Alake Badmus acscends the stage, she is smartly dressed in a native fabric skirt and suit, her hair is braided and packed in a doughnut shape at the back, she wears a black lipstick.
