Chapter 6

Nathaniel sat in the back office of the shelter, his laptop seated in front of him on the small desk as he listened to a pitch team from back home in California drone on and on about some new app that lacked a lot of depth. He tried hard not to roll his eyes at the interns who had done virtually nothing as far as prep work. It was rather disappointing. “All right, that’s enough,” Nathaniel said, waving his hand towards the computer screen. “Seriously. I’m done. You kids can leave.”

Adam, who was seated in the meeting room on the opposite side of the country, nodded along with Nathaniel. “You kids are excused,” Adam said and waved them out of the room. Nathaniel watched as Adam turned in his spinning chair to face the enormous screen that Nathaniel’s face was plastered on as they video chatted with one another for the conference.

“Well, that was an overwhelming disappointment and a ridiculous waste of time,” Nathaniel said. “Those interns ought to be escorted out of the building for that bullshit. Ten minutes of blabbering, and I couldn’t even tell you what the hell the app they were talking about is supposed to do.”

“I think we should green light it,” Adam said out of nowhere, and Nathaniel laughed –assuming that the man was joking. Adam’s face remained stoic as he stared back at Nathaniel from the other side of his computer screen. “I’m serious, Nathaniel.”

“Greenlight it? For what reason? It was total crap,” Nathaniel said.

“I just have a gut feeling about it,” Adam said. “They’re totally lacking a solid concept, but I think if I put the right person in charge those bozos might actually be onto something.”

“You’re really serious?” Nathaniel questioned.

“Who is the app genius, you or me?” Adam retorted.

Nathaniel rolled his eyes. Adam had certainly been the one to suggest greenlighting their greatest successes as far as apps went. Nathaniel, however, had put his cards on some rather impressive failures –for apps, at least. Nathaniel shook his head. “I know, I know. You’re the app genius, but seriously, what do you see in that?”

“Just trust me on this one. Greenlight it for me,” Adam said and waited for Nathaniel to respond.

“You really think it’s worth the time and money?” Nathaniel asked, still not quite sure what the kids were even trying to accomplish.

“Trust me,” Adam said with a slight smirk.

“All right, all right, fine. I’ll call your secretary and have her send me the paperwork to sign. You better be about to make me some serious money, Adam, because you and I both know that pitch was shit,” Nathaniel said, shaking his head and already reaching for his cellphone to have Adam’s personal assistant send him what he needed.

“You know I always do,” Adam said and winked at him. “So, Tony tells me you’ve bene spending some time with a lady out that way? You’re not falling for a Troy native, are you?”

Nathaniel laughed. “That kid just can’t keep a secret, can he? You remember Lillian Thompson?”

Adam sat upright.
