If anyone told me a decade ago that I'd be building a library with my wife, I would've laughed in their faces. We still have clandestine businesses underground, but my focus is now on our many front legit businesses. I'm looking forward to the time I can finally let go of the dirty world, even though I know for a fact that it will be extremely hard, given that I grew up in it. It's in my blood. It's in Riri's.
I take out my phone and quickly send her a text.
[ Me: I'm here. You ready? ]
Her response comes in fast.
[ Riri: Come inside. I'm in the office. ]
I enter the club, my people greeting me as I pass. I don't come inside Delirium as often as I did before due to my being busy elsewhere in the district and with the construction company. But I always make it a point to pick up my wife so we'd go home at the same time every day.
