YES, MY LITTLE PRINCESS

BEFORE ROBERT HAD BEEN CAUGHT CHEATING THE STOCKHOLDERS, LIFE HAD BEEN GOOD.  HE HAD TRANSFORMED THE TINY BUSINESS FROM A SIMPLE 2-PERSON ENTERPRISE STRUGGLING TO SURVIVE AND TURNED IT INTO A PROFITABLE INVESTMENT FIRM THAT HAD RECENTLY BEGAN TRADING ON THE NASDAQ EXCHANGE.  IN JULY HE HAD TAKEN HIS YACHT AND TRAVELED THE CARIBBEAN FOR SEVERAL WEEKS.  UNKNOWN TO HIM, HIS PARTNER WAS IN CAHOOTS WITH SEVERAL OF THE MAJOR STOCKHOLDERS, AND DURING THAT TIME THEY HAD TAKEN CONTROL OF THE COMPANY.  UPON HIS RETURN, HE WAS PRESENTED WITH THE OPTION OF HAVING THE POLICE NOTIFIED AND FACING JAIL TIME, OR TO PICK 1 PACKAGE FROM 5 UNMARKED PACKAGES, EACH ONE CONTAINING A MAGICAL SPELL.  ENVELOPE NUMBER 4 WAS HIS CHOICE.  IT CONTAINED THREE LARGE PINK PILLS.  HE SWALLOWED THEM ON THE SPOT, AND IMMEDIATELY BEGAN TO FEEL DIFFERENT.  THE ROOM WAS SPINNING.  HIS BODY TINGLED.  HE LOST CONSCIOUSNESS.  ROBERTA'S NEXT MEMORIES WERE OF PLAYING IN THE BACK YARD OF GLENN ALLISON, THE NEW CEO OF THE FIRM.  "DO YOU WANT ME TO PLAY YOU ANOTHER SONG, DADDY?  I WILL IF YOU WANT ME TO."  "PLEASE DO, ROBERTA, MY LITTLE PRINCESS," REPLIED HER DADDY.
