Alexander Dupree

Your dull auburn eyes look over at the sorry excuse for a man you've become. No longer the striking confident man as you've been reduced to a shell of your former self over the past few years. Droplets of water run across your solemn features for a few moments as you start to wonder what lay within the dreaded message from the Mayor.

Gulping nervously you frantically comb your lifeless black hair across the developing bald spot atop your head before dabbing unceremonially at your sodden features. Once you've reassured yourself you leave the bathroom and amble back to the desk. Rachel's crimson lips spread into a lustful smile as you wander past her desk and close the door behind yourself.

Taking a deep breath you ease the chair away from the wall and sit down. The screen appears dull as you frantically waggle the mouse from side to side. Moments later the computer whirrs into life as it reawakens from its slumber. Once more you open your email to see another message has arrived from the mayor; this time you open it to read.

Alexander Dupree,

I know you have been working with me on the campaign trail for many years and I thank you for this. Although due to your recent behaviour within the workplace as well as the allegations from other colleagues I have seen fit to let you go from your duties with immediate effect.

Sincerely,

Jed Wilkins. Mayor
