It was late, nine oclock late, the alarm on the end table blaring. Ming Long is late for work. As he struggles to get out of the door by nine fourty-five his boss calls. He does not pick up. He hops in his car and hurries to work. As he arrives at work Lisa greets him at the front desk. “Hey Ming, you’re late, that’s odd” she says with a weird grin “Hello, Lisa” he yells as he runs past As Ming is strolling down the hallway he feels something that is a little odd. He arrives at his office, papers stacked up to the ceiling. He got to work sorting as soon as he walked in. In the middle of his sorting process the boss walks in. “Good morning Ming.” He says happily “Hello, Lary” Ming says anxiously Ming still half asleep starts his lunch break, 15 minutes in Lary comes over, with no conversation subject in mind Ming says “Hello.” “Hi.” Says Lary That was the whole conversation, it was pretty off because Lary usually talks Mings ear off. Something must be wrong with him, he wasn’t even mad about Ming coming in late. As Ming walks curiously back to work he sees a new person, dressed in a nice suit with white pin stripes, slicked back black hair, dark red tie, and brand new dress shoes, or at least he thought they were new. Ming walks back to his office and sits because he is already caught up with his work. Lary comes walking over with this suspicious person and introduces him to me. “Ming, this is Chris, Chris this is Ming.” Lary says “Hello Chris, nice to meet you.” Says Ming “Good afternoon Ming” Mutters Chris Lary started to whisper to Chris, Ming doesn’t know what they are talking about but Chris is smiling right a Ming and it wasn’t a normal friendly smile it was a creepy grin. Almost as if he wanted to kill Ming, either that or take his job, what ever it was is was scaring Ming so he left. Its starting to be dinner time and everyone was still at work. They are usually done around four thirty. As Chris approaches Ming he says “Hey buddy, would you like to go get some food when we are done to get to know eachother?” “Umm yeah sure that would be fine.” Says Ming
