A chat

I paused to exhale, releasing whatever stress weighed down on my shoulders.

"But--" The guard expressed.

"But nothing" However, I interrupted. "Or do you think Boris and I are fools? Are you so blind that you didn't see the little game that we just played here to save ours and your skins?".

I watched as his eyes widened in comprehension "Although, Boris might be a man with a big heart -too good for his own safety, however, I can assure you that he is not a fool" I added.

He opened his mouth to speak but immediately closed it as though he was at a loss for words.

In response, I snorted at his inability to utter a word and responded as I stood up from my seat.

"When you are done with the cleanup, send the reports to me" I stated. "The faster we know what to do, the better for us".

My frail bones moved towards the door, unlocked it and headed back to my room.
