the end of days: have a good day c3769a page 1 by ric Gustafson
Rory picked up his office phone and tried to call his mother. After several rings, he remembered that she was in a bible study on Wednesday afternoons. Since becoming a Christian, his mother constantly was telling him to stay away from Carlo Simpato. He walked down the red carpeted hallway to the conference room. His co worker Alan was already sitting at the conference room table. Rory walked over to a side table that had donuts and muffins on it.
" Good afternoon Rory" Alan said as he bit into a blueberry muffin.
" I'm doing ok" was his reply as he picked up a glaze donut and then sat down next to his friend.
They listened as Mr Hayes, who was president of the bank, give his usual talk about the financial shape of the bank.
Just then, the door opened and Carlo Simpato walked in. " Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen" he said with a smile as he walked over and shook Rory's hand. " On behalf of the One World financial network and myself". He smiled. " Thank you for all the help you have given to us".
He looked at Rory. " And now I need your financial help with an even bigger project". He grinned. " People all over the world are already worshiping a statue of me". He looked around the room. " But now I want everyone who follows me to bear a mark of loyalty".
