His friends, Abu and Vladimir had been the fun-loving tourists who constantly took him into the most rural parts of Egypt for endless tours and camps.

Dilemma of a CEO
“Raynoid was skeptical about going to the bar and getting a drink,he did not want to wake up to calls from his father and client's about the news of him drinking to stupor in a roadside bar. He shuddered at the thought of it . Picturing the headline of the newspaper. " The influential Reynoid Macpherson, was seen at a bar just by the roadside with no shame winning with the less privileged till he was drunk to stupor .The thought was still all in his head when he shook it off and went into the bar . The less privileged he called the middle class. He lived with the mentality that the poor masses were people who were too lazy to seize the opportunity of being rich. What more could a man born into riches and comfort think. With just a snap of his finger, he could get the whole bar shut down with any reason. How rich could a man be to have such a mentality. He finally gathered courage and stopped by the bar . He sat close to the entrance door ,enabling him to see who and what was coming in. Most importantly for easy flee at the sight of paparazzi. Just a few minutes to clear my head . The loud chatter and laughter coming from the bar did nothin but angered him . Fancy bars and majorly quiet and soothing. No wonder they have nothing . There is no way for proper thinking with so much distraction he Scoffed. He called out to the weary looking waitress to take his order. . Her eye bags were enough to tell how tired and worn out she was. She didn't seem to be In the right frame of mind, she was pissed and willing to snap at anybody any time. Can I take your order? She asked him. Yes, give me your most expensive wine. Okay... She turned to leave, barely raising feet. "What if I do not like it "? It might be expensive but he was sure it might not be worth the price .The money was definitely not the problem, he already put aside his pride, getting a drink that wasn't worth it would be a huge bumper. "You should have thought about that first before asking for a drink" She snapped. Is this how you talk to your customers? How expected. What do you mean by that? She asked him with a stern look . You better apologize..why should l? For all I care I haven't said anything I shouldn't have. Exchanging words with her was the last thing Rey wanted to do but she was ready to give her a hard time. Does she not know who she was talking to? For a classless waitress like him ,speaking to him in such a manner was an insult to his personality. They both kept exchanging words, for all he said Alica was ready to give him back in a hundred more painful words Politely in her defense. Till her boss came and made issues worse, demanding an apology. She refused and ended up quitting her job for her own respect..She was desperate for the pay but definitely not at the detriment of her respect. Maybe she just made the worst mistake of her life or maybe not . She made a bigger mistake by accepting to marry Rey on contract that same night. What was she even thinking? The pay? Or the fame ?pretty much the pay.”
