    Ok. So see you later – said the man in black , hanging out his phone, methodically. That man took his briefcase, and left the office he was working in, at exactly six o’clock  of the dying day still  immersed in the sun rays that were stubborn to fade.  He went to the corridor,  and stopped in front of the elevator.I still can not go -   hitting his  knuckles on the marble wall.
