Smile

For the wink of your dreams

Is brighter than the glare of your misery

Smile

In the dare of nadir

For the boom of your harvest

Smile

Smile and Love

Smile, oh smile

Let the glint spread

Like jam on a loaf

Smile,

Let our hopes cling

In a toast for a sure tomorrow

Bus Ride – 6:56am[Friday Fictioneers]

Grey sat in a bus, reading a newspaper and waiting for a pick up. He looked out the window in delight. He does not always have reasons to go t town. But the day’s event may change that forever.

He reached for his phone and scrolled to the message menu. He had been invited for a job interview at IEE Services.

He smirked and stared at a picture on an advert, a week earlier, on the newspaper.

“IEE Services, a security firm seeks the service of a detail-oriented civilian to manage a high-end facility.”

Encouraged by the interests in Grey’s story from last week’s I am tempted to push it a little further. This is a developing story and I  took the liberty to share its first two installments. Hope you have more questions than ever!

This is a contribution to the Household of Friday Fictioneers. It’s a joy to be among you folks. All comments are appreciated. Thanks to Rochelle Wisofffields for hosting us as usual.
