Chapter 902:
The Metropolitan Man
or Barbie's Dream Date Sweepstakes


She was wearing her gold brocade sheath dress.
The one with the matching coat with the brown mink trim.
The Chrysler Bldg. loomed in the distance and suddenly there he was.
The Metropolitan Man.


She changed into her auburn wig and matching gold lame swimsuit.
His hair was close cropped and plastered to his head with some
sort of black goo. He said he went to Harvard.She said
she had too and that she had been a layout editor of the Crimson.


He said the name was "Herman"--
P. W. Herman and he bent his plastic lips into a broad leering grin.
She felt the room sway and the temperature made her brow throb.

Spent with exhaustion, the two collapse in a heap
of arms and legs.Not long after, there's a creaking of the door.
A shadowy figure enters the room.
