"My former station? Ms Bowman… You already know I got fired?" Clarissa questioned in surprise. She couldn't believe that a busy woman like Iris Bowman knew what was happening in her god-forsaken life.
Though Clarissa was happy, Iris was alarmed. "Wait! I'm not supposed to know about your situation?" She guessed that maybe both Clarissa and the television station planned to keep things under wraps. Why else would Clarissa look so agitated? 'Maybe they haven't even revealed it to the public yet.' Iris facepalmed in her head for being too forthcoming.
"Ms Bowman, I'm just happy about you paying attention to the news about me. The station only announced it yesterday, you know. I feel honored." Clarissa responded.
If only Clarissa knew that Iris was nowhere near a television yesterday, she wouldn't be so thrilled about paying attention to news about her.
"Tsk!" Iris chuckled jokingly and reached out for the menu.
