Part One: Story
	John was in no mood to travel that day: he had gone through a lot already in the office and he wanted to relax for a while. Being a salesman for the past five years in the same firm, he had not earned that much of name and fame which is generally expected from the marketing sector. In spite of all his efforts so far, his growth was like zero. He would wake up at five in the morning and all day long, there would be nothing but hard work in the daylight, in the burning sun of May or in the chilly winds of December. He could be the only Christian who would think of getting back to work on the day of Christmas. But all this hard work was never paid back to him; going to the office meant that the boss will be right on his chin and would demand an explanation for the less sales in that part of the month.
