The two of us stood in the empty break room, an awkward silence enveloping us. She then stared at me and sighed before taking a seat on one of the chairs and crossing her legs. She looked at me with an coldly and a little disappointed for some reason.
"So, what did you want to talk to me about?" she asked with an air of professionalism, as if she had no idea why I had asked to meet with her.
"I wanted to speak to you about something."
"Go on, what is it?"
"It's about my part-time job I told you about once." The moment I said that, she clammed up. "Did you happen to see me Friday night?"
It was a waste of time to keep beating around the bush, so I came right out and said it. Ms. Dalton sighed.
"Yes, I did see you. In fact, I was planning to call your parents and inform them that their son was taking part in an illegal boxing match."
[So she did see you… This could be a problem. Fix it.]
