"It's not easy at the top" ~ for A Little Drabble Do Ya!

Alexander Waverly sat at his desk sipping his morning cup of tea. He was deep in thought, deciding upon which team to send to a most dangerous assignment in the Leeward Islands, specifically to Monserrat.

He’d already lost four agents, and it clawed at him that it could happen again.  It was all for the greater good but to have to send men to their possible deaths was not easy.

Though he’d been drinking tea all his life, it suddenly didn’t sit well with him and he put down the cup, leaving it unfinished.

This was not a good day...

Not easy for a man of conscience. Nice Waverly piece.

Thanks. I figured the Old Man was overdue for some attention.

Excellent!
His isn't a job for a weak person.

Thank you! No it isn't. I think I'm going to start visiting him more; he needs some company.
