Beyond the Divorce

Quite a few people were gathered in front of the office building. Many surrounded Nelson, patting his back and chest while shouting. I had no idea what was going on.

As our group rushed out of the office building, one of the demonstrators immediately stood up and pointed toward us. He seemed to be the leader.

"You guys are unbelievable! How dare you push an old man like this to the edge? He's a living monument of Bourdamun, and you treat him like this?" The man looked fierce and spoke as if trying to assert dominance.

I looked at Nelson, who lay motionless, allowing people to pound on him without responding. Something seemed suspicious. If there was a real problem, would they stay so calm?

"Noah, you've only been here briefly and want to establish dominance in Bourdamun. Dream on!"

The man's words seemed excessive and didn't sit well with me.
