“What’s his problem?” asked Karen’s husband, clearly upset.
“Oh, don’t bother about him! He’s just being a jerk again!” replied Karen, equally as upset.
All of a sudden, someone shouted, “Hot d*mn! That’s a lot of helicopters!”
“Huh? Where?”
“Holy! There’s at least thirty-six of them up there and they’re all forming a formation!”
Everyone there was stunned. Though this place was mostly reserved for wealthy people, those present there today were generally younger, which explained their shock.
Even Karen and the others’ attention was drawn toward the helicopters.
“Aren’t those helicopters used by the military, Hubby?” asked Karen, her voice clearly indicating her shock.
Her other students were simply too stunned to say anything.
“Of course not. While they surely are military grade helicopters, citizens can use them too. Still, I wonder who could have brought so many helicopters into Weston…”
Though Karen’s husband was knowledgeable, even he was surprised.
“I really want to know who those helicopters are for… The kind of formation they’re making could only be reserved for the richest of the rich!” said Lucille as she jumped up and down excitedly.
She even took out her phone to capture pictures of them. What an exciting day!
“Honey, look! The helicopters are about to land on the golf course!” said the lady who had misdirected her swing earlier.
“No wonder the workers told us to leave earlier. Someone powerful must be here today! I’m glad we didn’t leave. I have to know this person!” replied her husband, shocked.
Though they were indeed rich, they weren’t that rich! How could a person even have that much money!
“Good day, sir! Might you have any idea of who’s here today?” asked Karen’s husband as he walked over to the couple. He had overheard them discussing the helicopters as well.
He could tell that they were rich just from how they were dressed, which led to his assumption that they would probably know more about the situation.
