A large, brightly lit man appeared above Troy’s bed.

“Goodnight, Troy,” said the holographic man.

Troy snapped up in fear.

“What! What?” he screamed.

“No worries, Troy. This is Major White, Barber Hall’s manager,” said the hologram. “I’m hoping you had a phenomenal dining experience this evening.”

“Yes. Yes. It was very nice, thank you,” replied Troy, still astonished by the sudden interruption in his short sleep.

“I spoke with President Barber afterwards. He would like to meet with you first thing tomorrow morning. We’ll have a proper suit and tie delivered to you by one of our associates here at Barber Hall,” said Major White.

“What is the meeting about?” asked Troy, curious.

“That doesn’t matter. He didn’t specify. Your suit will arrive in the morning, along with your access pass and train card,” said the hologram. “We’ll see you in the morning.”

The hologram of Major White vanished before Troy could respond. He lay back down in his bed, then fell asleep quickly.
