Candy Licker
“He was always the first person on board each day and enjoyed the solitude of working alone for two or three hours before anyone else showed up. At a glance you might figure Percy to be a stockbroker or a corporate bigwig, but you'd certainly be mistaken. Percy was a master at keeping his appearance smooth and tight, and the three-thousand-dollar suits he wore every day and the Mercedes-Benz parked in a secure garage two blocks away were just a few of the fruits that the labor of his brilliant mind had afforded him.
Sliding his briefcase under his desk, Percy pulled a chair up to his third-floor window and watched Harlem come alive. He'd watched these same streets almost every morning during the four years he'd been working for Hurricane Jackson, and every year when spring broke he'd buy a few potted flowers and set them outside on the specially built fire escape he'd had constructed the same day he'd arrived.
