The next day at work
Morning ,
Plato was ready to leave for work along with Dimitri
Kid , said a voice from the other room
Come here , said Sergey
Plato went to the other room
Sergey was seated on his desk , smoking a cigarette . And the stupor was smelt easily by Plato
You are the new one , asked Sergey
Yes , I'm Plato
I'm Sergey , the both of them introduced themselves
Aren't you a little too young for this job , asked Sergey
It is Dangerous out there , warned Sergey
I travel with the trucks , that is all . Replied Plato
And what is inside the trucks , asked Sergey
Waste , replied plato
Nuclear waste , said Sergey
And a bit of it , everyday . It will kill you . Said Sergey
I wear a mask , always . replied Plato
A mask , laughed Sergey . As he took a long puff of smoke
Where are you from Plato , asked Sergey
Greece , replied Plato
Go back there . Said Sergey
Plato , let go . Said Dimitri . We are getting late for work
The two of them made their way to work .
There was silence between the two of them
And finally Dimitri spoke
Forget what he said , He was in a stupor . Sergey
OK , replied Plato
And Dimitri , a drunk man wont scare me that easily .
Lets get to work . Said Dimitri
The two of them walked inside the gates
And Yet again , Dimitri went to his office and Plato to the changing room
He got changed up and went to the entrance of the building , waiting for the truck to arrive
How are you this morning Plato , asked the lady at the reception
Feeling just fine Madam , replied Plato
The lady smiled .
The truck arrived with Andrei driving inside
Plato got in and then removed his mask as he sat in the enclosed drivers area
Morning , said Andrei .
Morning , said Plato
The two of them drove away from the compound
Andrei saw Plato looking at his driving and making a note of all the movements in the memory
Be patient Plato , laughed Andrei
I was not doing anything . Said Plato
Andrei did not say a word and just drove ahead
The snow was a lot heavier than the usual
Too much snow , said Plato
A lot more than usual , replied Andrei
