Down in the Town
An American banker and arms dealer makes a choice.
He was sober. A financier, Dogod Ferrimore looked around the Chinese barflies. He tapped on his device and sent more money to fund the war with America and China. America crushed the Chinese Navy with a bevy of attacks. The Army and Marine Corps needed more money to feed, clothe, and house the warriors.
He sent six billion dollars over the network to reach the American government. More jets and tanks became attached to the bill as well.
He downed Chinese beer. He kept tapping. Two hundred thousand soldiers and civilians perished in a nuclear attack. It’s the third one.

Breath issued from Angelica’s mouth. The weight of the baby put her into her chair. Her curves managed to say she had not been with child the whole time. There seemed to be a fantastic ideal swimming somewhere in her mind about the hazards of caring for two. She grabbed a magazine and fanned herself, knowing that she expended more energy in that effort sitting still and letting the air conditioning do the job. No, she told herself, without struggle there is no triumph. She switched on the television set. The picture looked as people had been replaced by blue aliens and she just watched her soap opera, void of extraterrestrials for this time.
