Peter was pacing back and forth in his private room...
In truth, after he had confessed the entire situation, he had been terrified. He was half-expecting a bullet to suddenly come flying through the door to blow his skull open, or for a squad of medical researchers to drag him away for vivisection.
However, his current mood was completely devoid of apprehension. Instead, it was... ecstatic!
This dramatic shift in mindset was all due to a beautifully bound red booklet sitting on his desk. The cover bore a few bold words:
Letter of Appointment: Extraterrestrial Diplomat!
Holy crap! Peter had actually been appointed as an official diplomatic envoy!
It was an unbelievable, unexpected surprise!
Upon receiving the appointment, Peter had jumped out of his seat in pure astonishment. Adrenaline surged through his veins, flushing his face a bright, vibrant red.
