   "You can't go outside," James tells you. "I am
under strict orders from your parents not to allow
you out of the house."
   Is this guy for real? You're the richest kid in the
world. You should be able to do anything you
want. No way you are going to stay stuck in the
house, you decide.
   "Oh come on, James. I want to hang out with
my friends. I won't be gone long. And my parents
never have to find out. It will be our little secret."
You flash him your best smile.
   He doesn't smile back.
   "Out of the question," he tells you. "I have my
orders. I intend to follow them. And you will too."
   "Okay, fine!" Obviously, you aren't going to get
anywhere with this guy. "I'll stay here." Then you
wave him away with your hand. "Uh, thank you,
James, that will be all."
   James doesn't move.
   You let out a sigh. "Don't worry," you assure
him. "I'm not going anywhere."
   "Very good," James answers. He gives you a
quick bow, then turns and walks out of the room.
   You listen to his footsteps echoing down the
long hallway. As they fade away, you pop your
head out of the doorway.
   The coast is clear.
