Every workday morning Tom and Sally would walk quickly up the long flight of stairs in the Systel Building in downtown Fayetteville. They had the stairwell all to themselves since nearly all the other building employees used the elevators. Sally was always the first to complete the climb up to their work floor, the 6th floor.
