A Million Tears
“I hoped Roybal would turn up soon and we could clear the air and get it all over with. Finally I gave up and threw down a half completed stock list in disgust. For some time, I sat and thought of how far we had come in such a short period. A lot had happened and a lot more was going to happen. Provided we survived the day. We? No, that was wrong. Evan was the driving force and Meg the main support. Without either of them, there was no future. I hoped Evan knew what he was doing. I went down bel...ow to the stove and got myself a cup of coffee from the staff room.
It was late afternoon when we received the message. I stood by the door to Evan’s office, Evan sat behind his desk. John sat on an upright chair against the wall, his right hand out of sight by his side. From where I stood I could see the main door. The minutes dragged by. More than once I thought I saw somebody outside but then I realised it was my eyes playing tricks. I decided if we got through the day all right I was going to an optician.MoreLess
