[ MARCH 20, 20XX]
A new assignment to a precinct in the Lower City arrived in my memory bank today. My original assignment in the city was the Upper City.
So needless to say I am excited.
I took a taxi down and made a new friend. He calls himself Cameron. I told him my name is **Investigation Unit (IU) 4500 Gen 3-45** but that I prefer Issac.
“Issac” he said
“They let you pick that out yourself?”
“Yes” I responded
“If you are a unit then what are you doing down here?”
“Keeping the peace “
“Good luck”
“Thank you, Cameron”
“That was sarcasm, man. What--were you born yesterday?”
“Actually 76 days ago”
I like the Lower City, it’s colorful and full of life.
Cameron, who has now become my regular taxi driver, says it’s foolish of me to speak so highly of such a place.
I think he’s the one who hasn’t stopped to smell the proverbial roses in a while.
