He found ecstasy less than an hour away. From Dover, Delaware to Wilminton, Delaware. He went from the Dover Air Force Base to a skyscraper downtown. The color of teakwood, he made his ascension from an officer in the Air Force to being chief technology officer in an AI firm.

The city beckoned him. His car switched lanes by itself and flowed so smoothly. He had time to prepare a speech. He would become content with the idea of being ready to be fourth in line to the top spot at the company.

He made it real. Everything came true.
