TAKING NOTICE.

It was dim

The lamps light reflected off the red walls only to make everything it touched crimson

The pictures that adorned the walls looked like black holes sucking in the light

The silver tableware reflecting images that are projecting onto it

His hair was slicked back shiny and sleek

He wore a suit that was unwrinkled all tucked in nice and neat

It looked new and very expensive
