Amber woke up the following morning and dressed up for work in a wine skirt and white shirt with a long rope at the neck which she fixed into a bow tie. She checked her bag to see if she didn’t forget anything to avoid issues like the last time and finally stepped into the sitting room so she could leave for work.
She was about opening the door when Emily also opened it from outside and they almost jammed into each other. Emily was taken aback as she saw Amber at the door and didn’t know if she should run back, talk, pretend or the floor should just swallow her at that instant.
Amber stood there staring at her for some seconds before Emily finally proceeded to talk.
“I.. ” started Emily but was cut off by Amber
“I don’t want to listen to anything you have to say right now and I am late for work so will you please leave the door so I can go out?” Amber cut in and Emily sealed her lips tight before shifting to the side for her to pass.
