Life at the Top

Jasper felt a ripple of emotion in his heart as he looked at Celine who stood by the roof railing of the Empire State Building and listened to her speak.

He walked over to stand beside Celine by the railing.

Feeling the chilly and raging winds 400 meters up in the sky, his surroundings were dimly lit this evening and Jasper felt as if the entire New York City was beneath his feet.

The neon lights in this immense city spread from under his feet and stretched all the way to the horizon beyond what he could see. The city bustled with liveliness.

No one could tell for sure how many separations and reunions the city, populated by millions, went through each day.

Or what went on in the families behind every lit window.

As one of the busiest cities in the world, New York was indeed heaven for the powerful and the rich.
