Baxter’s Incorporated: Manhattan, New York
Kowalski was working in his office. It was a quaint room with high ceilings that caused your voice to echo when 你 so much as whispered. 2 windows that looked out onto the busy streets of Manhattan. There was his work 台, 办公桌 that was in the middle of his room, facing the door. A small refrigerator on the 墙 behind that. His own private restroom at the far corner.
Other than the small tapping that Kowalski was doing at his keyboard, the room was silent. That silence was broken when his partner, Roger, walked in the room. “Oh. Hello Roger. Do 你 have the blueprints?” Kowalski asked as he looked up from his computer & rose from his seat. “Yeah. Here they are.” Roger handed him the medium sized, rolled up paper.
Kowalski & Roger were 给 an assignment 由 their former employer. It was the last project he’d 给 him before he retired. “Have 你 met the new boss yet?” Roger asked suddenly. “No, I hear he’s quite pleasant though.” Kowalski said. Their new employer had bought the company yesterday, & arrived to his new office that morning.
“I’ve met him. He seems pleasant, but he doesn’t look it. He’s got this creepy eye thing. He wanted me to tell 你 that he wants to see 你 before 你 leave this afternoon.” Roger told him. Kowalski looked away for a moment, trying to hide the alarm on his face. He looked straight into Roger’s eyes. “What did he say his name was?” He asked suspiciously. “He didn’t say. He just wants to be called ‘Doctor.’ Anyway, I need to go to the men’s room. Give me a minute.” Roger then walked into the small room & shut the door behind him.
Kowalski sat down on his office chair slowly to process what Roger had told him. He couldn’t speak. His eyes were wide with fear & worry. Kowalski had a horrible gut feeling he knew who his new boss was.
