Shelby (Second Chance Novels book 4)
“The somber expression on everyone's face proves the proverbial pink slips have been delivered. Chuck walks up and says I'm sorry in the most human voice I've heard from him yet. I choke back another set of tears as I walk silently to my desk. He follows me with a folder containing my exit-interview papers and a confirmation of my termination to turn into Social Services if I need to go on unemployment benefits. A box is insultingly and yet kindly waiting for me on my chair. I guess I'm not su...pposed to even sit down before I clear out. Who cares? I don't have any personal photos to take with me anyway. I grab my own flash drive and I take the damn stapler just because. Without a single word to anyone, I take my mostly-empty box from the office and walk to my car. I don't bother going home, but I can't find a damn bar open at 8:30 in the morning. One trip to the liquor store cures my need for some escape, and I get drunk in the park like a fucking hobo. I ignore the fact that when I sneeze, there's no one to say bless you.MoreLess
