A pair of golden eyes stared through a small space of window visible under the room-darkening window shade. The red light of sunset casting the world outside into hues of red and orange. A few hours ago it was too bright and sunny for Sable to even think of stepping outside, so he had a nap. Warily he grasped the metal chord, pulling the chord so the shade revealed much more of the city. Reaching out he rested his slender pale fingers on the small window sill, looking down at the streets of city which spread out as far as he could see in the dying light. He stood there for a few moments, broodingly staring out before turning with a slightly weary sigh, walking the doorway of his small bedroom to the hallway, past the small living room and cramped kitchen and out into the apartment building hallway the Federal office is destination, grabbing his jacket and scarf on the way out.
Just a few days after his graduation ceremony he applied to a government office only to be given droll tasks to complete. Granted he was new but this was really disappointing. He didn’t even have a badge yet. Walking past the elevator he took the stairs, bringing the hood of his jacket up to cover his hair and face. He’d check the with the front desk tonight and see if they had his badge yet. Stepping onto the street he brought his scarf up to cover the rest of his face somewhat, glancing down the street warily before making his way to the direction of the Government Office.
