“You’re the material of dark magic, deceiving is in your genetic makeup… just give me the rest of the solution to my exam and we’ll be done.”
“Ok..ok… here you go - have fun in class kiddo, and if you ever want to sell your..”

Josh arrived at time, nervous about the secrecy of his new job… it was a three story building, concrete facades, brutalist style, located in the middle of a somber forest, built next to a granite cliff… he was met at the door, by an interesting gentleman, wearing a black suit with a bulldozer pin in his lapel - “ welcome josh, this is the first day of the rest of your life… if you play your cards ...
