ASTEROIDS

Jake controlled the door, he sat behind the desk on his stool and buzzed you in, you had to be fast, miss your chance and you wouldn't get in at all even if you waited for the next people.No-one had ever heard him speak, he controlled his universe with a few gestures, if he stood up you were gone for good. They said he was dumb but he just didn't want to speak. Every day we went down the corridor with it's peeling paint, nod to jake - he didn't like people to talk to him. The tables were at the back but we only liked the machines pac-man, space-invaders, galaxians but most of all asteroids
