Ambition Read online

Comments about the protest were rolling in.

  They were waiting for my response.

  My opinion about the event mattered to them.

  I felt flattened with the responsibility, but I couldn’t let them down. Couldn’t disappoint.

  My fingers hovered over the virtual keyboard and I tapped out an enthusiastic cheer. We showed them! We’ll keep shouting our message until they hear. One day, we will see justice!

  Exhaustion claimed me and I flopped onto my bed. I played with my ComRing, twisting the platinum nervously around my finger. Tomorrow I’d feel different. My mind was messed up because I was tired. All I needed was a good sleep and everything would be fine.

  Everything would not be fine.

  Eventually I dozed off, blissfully unaware that the next day would trigger events that would change my life forever. And it would start with an unusual encounter with Zoe Vanderveen.

  The End
