He often went to the cinema in the late afternoons, it was so quiet at that time often he was the only one there. It was the latest blockbuster and as there were so few customers, he could sit anywhere he liked. At 32 he was one of the youngest lottery winner for such a large amount, 8.7 million. He still couldn't quite believe it himself even though it had been a year ago. He had quit his job in computers as soon as he could but he had still given them a beyond contract 2 months notice.
He had all the cars and a big house the only trouble was that the money was making him lazy and it made the loneliness worse. He didn't have a girlfriend, sure he could have paid for call girls or taken up with one of the girls he met with dollar signs in her eyes, but he didn't want a relationship based on money. Now he wasn't working of course his prospects were even slimmer. It sounds funny but the money had alienated him from the rest of the world, he was known in the local pub since buying the manor house, all the fake yes m'lord no m'lord meant it was difficult to find any real friends.
Recently to change his life, he had bought a medium car, he had sold the manor and was going to start work again in a effort to lead a more down to earth life. The sessions at the local health club were paying off too he felt so much more alive recently. He bounded up the stairs to cinema no 1 slowing as he went through the door and giving his eyes time to adjust. looking around, yes it was empty. He sat in the middle two rows from the back taking off his coat and settling in to watch the adverts.
He heard the door open to the side and two women came in and headed towards the back. Wow he thought looking them over as best he could without being too obvious about it. They sat on the aisle behind him and chatted discreetly. The film started and he settled back into his seat to watch. About 10 minutes into the film he noticed that the women were moving, one had moved forward a row and was walking towards him. Her friend passed behind him on the other side. She reached the end and moved into his row sitting down next to him. He was startled to say the least as the women sat on either side of him, nervously he said 'hi' and the women smiled back at him but didn't say anything. There he was sat between two attractive young women! 'I must be in heaven' he thought to himself.
