Nicholas sat down in a blue easy chair and put a glass of ice water on the small end table that was near the chair. He took off his tennis shoes, sighed and took a sip of water." It is so hot out there" he said as he took another sip and then turned toward his friend.
The Creator took a sip of some cranberry juice Nicholas had given him and agreed. " It is summertime and easy to overheat".
" I just need to sit here, relax and cool down" he said as he took another sip of cold water and then closed his eyes to relax.
