Chicago, First Date, and a Bottle of Merlot
It was an ordinary morning at the River View apartments. Angel Mc. Farland woke up at six in the morning. She jogged along the sidewalk for about a mile. The sidewalk faced out along the Chicago River. She was thinking about the meeting she had to have with her boss regarding an account. She was astonished that Chicago was quite different from Springfield. She figured that there was more city to Chicago than can be imagined. Being a trades assistant she was thinking about how the market was going to move. She worried about the client's account. She normally didn't think about a client during a jog, but this morning, she needed to. She knew this client to be right demanding. The condo beneath her was almost finished. She heard as she jogged by the sounds of the construction workers who were working steadily to build the new condo beneath her. Angel had been in the condo she lived in for six months. She returned home and got herself prepared for work. The clock was going on about eight-thirty and she had to be to work at nine. Angel left for the L-Train, which would take her to the brokerage firm. She thought to herself what a shame they lack those in Springfield.
