An Ikea.
After hours.
AARON enters.
He’s been working on late night inventory.
He’s been working for hours.
He’s tired and a little stressed out.
AARON stretches and yawns
AARON decides to take a moment to lie down on a display bed.
AARON lies down.
AARON closes his eyes.
AARON starts to relax.
AARON starts to feel close to a meditative state.
AARON feels wonderful.
AARON pops up.
AARON: JON!
After a moment JON enters.
JON: Yeah?
AARON: I decided to lie down here for a second to close my eyes.
JON: Yeah.
AARON: It feels great.
JON: Yeah?
AARON: I felt calm. Almost meditative. It was wonderful.
JON: Yeah!
AARON: Can you take a photo of me?
JON: Yeah.
AARON tosses his cellphone to JON.
AARON lies back down.
AARON manufactures the wonderful feeling he had just moments ago.
JON snaps a photo.
JON looks at the photo, he likes it.
JON: Yeah…
AARON pops back up.
JON tosses AARON his phone.
AARON looks at the photo.
AARON: Nice! Thanks man.
JON: Yeah!
AARON spends time posting this photo to social media.
AARON: … I guess I better get back to work now.
JON: Yeah.
AARON and JON get back to work.
