Faith and Certitude!

Pete's Bargain..

"Pete."

"What?" Pete yawned and stretched.
The auto-drive alarm clock woke Pete.
Pete put some coffee on the stove.
Karen slipped on her slippers.

Karen was Pete's sex slave.
They kissed..
"Karen, I'd like some Rice Crispy."
Pete smacked her on the butt.

"Yes.. Did you want a bagel?"
Karen queried as she poured milk.
Pete shrugged, "Yeah."
He read the news online.

"Could you put on that red lace catsuit?"
Pete bit into his bagel.
The camper hoovered over a parking space.
"Mars is so messed up," Pete remarked.

Karen gave Pete a neck massage in her catsuit.
"I like the green sky," Karen remarked.
Pete sipped his coffee.
He gave a toothy smile.
"Well, I like the cheap labor."

After the pandemic on Earth, most people moved to Mars.
The Martian atmosphere had been restored.
And a slave market had grown out of the need for cheap labor.
Corporations resembled a centralized government.
"I like owning you," Pete smiled and kissed Karen.

Reflections~A government is a business.
