Chapter 8: RICHARD
Helen was Chad’s mother. She was overbearing and we tried to avoid her as much as we could. She believed in love as well, and she always gave us an earful whenever we ran into her.
I remember how ecstatic she had been when Chad fell in love with Zara. Rumor even has it that she was secretly planning a wedding before the break up. And since then we have avoided her.
The joke about Aaron dealing with her vanished as soon as the elevator started descending.
I was once again overwhelmed by the duties that were waiting for me. I still had to interview over 20 applicants. And by 2pm, I had a board meeting scheduled. A board meeting that will undeniably leave me weary. Dealing with the Elders was always a draining experience and I can’t deal with any of these events with my current state of mind.
The urge to get high came once more, and I pushed it away. As much as I could handle it, but I doubt I would stop at the required dose. With how stressed I am, I fear I might allow myself to drift into oblivion.
The Elders have been looking for something to hold on to. Anything to prove that I was unworthy of being the CEO of the Wellington Empire. And I hated those pricks enough that I would never give them a reason or an incentive to foster their suspicions.
Suffice to say, smoking was not an option. I need not only be clear headed for my interview and meeting, but relaxed as well.
And there’s only one activity that could
help me with that. Even before I discovered this fact, I have always known about how climax or release can leave one in a relaxed and contented state. Especially after I first tried it when I was just twelve.
But I’m not talking about masturbating, at least not by myself. Why would I go through the stress of doing that, when there are a myriad of girls and ladies who perform magic with their tongues?
I NEED YOU AT FALLING STARS HOTEL, ASAP.
I read the text again and decided that ’need’ was kinda a strong word. In fact, the whole thing reeked of desperation and I truly can’t have the bitch thinking that Richard Wellington needed her.
