The First
A trillionaire considers his timepiece.
As the first trillionaire in the world, Trayvon Fario, looked at his smartwatch. His Wilmington, Delaware home gave him ample space to consider his problems. The world maligned the fact he had attained so much money without giving any of it to charity.
“He should be offering to the poor,” pundits jeered. “He should be concerned with the world, at least America. He didn’t create his wealth. He just got lucky.”
Fario knew better. He had earned every penny and didn’t have to share it with one person. The way that he looked at his watch was with great concern.

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 The picture looked as people had been replaced by blue aliens and she just watched her soap opera, void of extraterrestrials for this time.

The Fletcher
There wasn't any work that day, so I was perfecting my foot dangling when the ugly kid knocked. He does that quite often, especially because he has such trouble telling the bloody doors in the inn apart. The candle's lit, mind you, where that ugly kid is concerned, but the light is dim.
