Chapter 5

Mars

Sometimes in life you think I'm doing well, I achieved my goals, people around me are the best, and my work and personal life are running perfectly each one separately. When you're on these times because nothing is forever things doesn't matter because you feel nothing can knock you down. It is like taste the clouds. But here is a fact in other times the feeling is different like you suck. And it's completely natural. People think that happiness must be forever like I decide to be happy and nothing affects me. But we are not robot. It's true that your decisions affect largely in the future and the way that be life. This doesn't mean than you have to be always with a smile in your face and the day that you look sad means that it was because you seek for it. This shows that life is not the perfect movie you can watch over and over again and it always have the happy ending. This is a sign that we have sense and for stronger that we feign to be the truth is different, storms drag us, and we usually can only let ourselves go.

After an hour sat in Mustin's I decided to drive here. I like this place because I can hear the silence and my thoughts fly with wind. The time goes faster here, and I forget everything. Now I'm sit on cliff a little out of town. Nobody knows that sometimes I come here to pass the time, or they misunderstood, but it's not what you're thinking about. The first visit to this place was with this intention and something made me realize that I really want to live. My life without her it's difficult and I hate to be like this. But although it hurts, I can live without her presence. Maybe our story was not meant to be.

After leaving the cafeteria I stayed thinking on the girl. She saw me, probably because she noticed that the pass half hour, I was stalking her, and then smile to continue her way. What will be her name? Will she come here daily? Why am I acting like an obsessive psychopath thinking about a girl that I saw once in a coffee store? Forget that and continue walking because you are very late today Mars.

Almost running because I have an important assembly and just today it occurred me to stop and buy coffee. Well, here I am. This is my company Impetu dot. Our services are concentrated in home protection. We fabricate and set up high technology equipment for home security. I create this business four years ago after I received my degree as an electrical engineer. Obviously, I didn't have money to form all these, but I met a guy that now thinking is the typical story of the rich lad who can't find what to do with money, I told him my idea and he decided to invest in my dream. After a lot of effort and with the help of his contacts we are in this market stall. We are highly request for the installations of the riches that I once criticized and now are paying my lifestyle.

- Hi, Julia. What do we have for today?

- Good morning, Mr. Heizer. You have the assembly at 9:00 o'clock. Mr. Kelly schedule a meeting at 11:00 to present the loans of his new project. At 12:00 pm a lunch with Mr. Bald and his wife. And finally, at 15:00 hours Mr. Sykes programmed a match.

- What for? What does Brett want?

- Excuse me sir, but he didn't tell me the reason of his request. He just said and quote: ¨Your boss brain it's going to exploit, just tell him that¨.

- Ok, thanks Julia. If somebody wants to see me, I'm not available.

- What you say, sir.

To be the CEO of a company is not that easy or funny as people think. I have to meet every day with people that sometimes I don't even like them, check that everything runs smoothly, and take decisions thinking not just in yourself otherwise all an employee's salary. But if you have a good team, things march in a more relaxed way.

The morning elapses faster and between one and another thing it's pass noon. I'm reviewing some documents when the door is knocked. I looked up and Brett is coming into my office with a mocking smile on his face.

- How you doing Heizer?

- Fine, Sykes and you?

- Très bien, merci. – He says with a false accent.

- What brings you here in this beautiful day?

- Nothing. I want to visit my best friend. Is it prohibited?

- Of course.

- Why? – He said indignant.

- Because I had said to you.

- I'm not bothering you.

- Yes, you are.

- No, I'm not.

- Tell me. What do you want that I do?

- Ok. Come with me to a double date.

- What?

- You hear well.

- I don't want to.

- But you have to.

- Why?

- Because you're my friend and you will help me tonight.

- I'm your friend and because of that I'm saying no. I know you.

- Come one man.

- It's just a dinner and then you'll go home. I swear maximus three hours, and then bye-bye see you never.

- The last time I spend three hours hearing a crazy girl crying because her boyfriend broke up with her and took the hen.

- What hen? – He asked confused.

- I DON'T KNOW. – I screams weary.

- Fine. Keep calm. I pretty sure that these girls don't have a hen. Please. - He said releasing the last letter.

- Where do we go?

- To Hanleys.

- What?

- See you tonight. – He ran out of here.

What a night awaits me.
