The Question


                “It’s not of your concern what I do; I am more
            concerned about what you did in Nairobi. What
            security company did you work for?”
                Assir replied, “LL Security Services, and we were

            both assigned to the Executive Services division. We
            provided security for diplomats and commercial clients
            in high-risk and complex environments. Many of our
            clients were celebrities, people of wealth, and those

            subject to physical attack or kidnapping.
                King’s next question was, “How would you like to
            work for David and me?”

                They looked at one another in disbelief. Jaali asked,
            “What is it you would like us to do?”
                King replied, “The question was, do you want to
            work for us or not? It is a simple yes or no answer.”

                Jaali and Assir got up and walked across the massive
            state room and huddled in one corner. They put their
            arms around each other and heads touching, began a

            discussion that lasted less than a minute. They were both
            smiling as they were walking back to the sofa, and before
            they even reached it, Jaali spoke up in a loud voice and
            said, “Yes, we would love to work for you. You name it,

            I’m sure that we are trained to take care of it.”
                “That is exactly the answer I wanted to hear. Now,
            I seal all my business with a handshake and a kiss.”


                                                                  21
