Wait for me downstairs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I hesitated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDo we have a meeting?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Richard finally looked up.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cClient dinner?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThen where are we going?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He returned his attention to the papers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cJust be downstairs at four.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Something about his tone made me uneasy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIs anyone else coming?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNo. Just you and me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I left his office confused.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By itself, the conversation probably wouldn\u2019t have bothered me.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But then Tuesday happened.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was walking toward accounting when I saw the department head leaving Richard\u2019s office.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She was carrying several folders.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of them was mine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I recognized my full name printed clearly on the label.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She noticed me looking at it and immediately shifted the folder underneath the others.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEverything okay?\u201d I asked.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOf course.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her answer came too quickly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That was the first moment I seriously wondered whether something was wrong.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Folder With My Name<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Wednesday, Richard called the company lawyer twice.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That alone wasn\u2019t unusual. The company dealt with contracts and legal matters regularly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But I had worked with Richard long enough to recognize when something was routine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This didn\u2019t feel routine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Later that afternoon, I noticed the lawyer standing outside Richard\u2019s office.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They stopped talking when I approached.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEmily,\u201d the lawyer said, forcing a smile.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHi.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I glanced toward Richard\u2019s closed office door.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEverything okay?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAbsolutely.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Again, that word.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Absolutely.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People only seemed to use it when they were trying very hard to convince me that nothing was wrong.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I returned to my desk and tried to focus.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I couldn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That evening, I went home and barely touched dinner.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My mother noticed immediately.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhat\u2019s wrong?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNothing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She gave me the look only a mother can give.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I sighed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think something might be happening at work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAre you in trouble?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI don\u2019t know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDid you do something?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThen don\u2019t assume the worst.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I wanted to believe her.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But by Thursday morning, I had convinced myself that Richard was preparing to fire me.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There were too many signs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My personnel folder had been removed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The accounting department was involved.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company lawyer had been contacted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And Richard had specifically asked me to meet him alone after work on Friday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I began replaying the past seven years in my head.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Had I made a mistake?<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Had I missed something?<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Had Richard finally decided that I wasn\u2019t worth keeping?<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The thought terrified me.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not because I couldn\u2019t find another job.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But because my family depended on me.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Thursday\u2019s Conversation<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That afternoon, I finally gathered enough courage to ask Richard directly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I stood in his doorway.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDo you have a minute?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He looked up from his computer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOf course.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I stepped inside.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I almost asked him whether I was being fired.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead, I said, \u201cIs there something I should know about?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He studied me for several seconds.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then he leaned back in his chair.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAbout what?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy position.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His expression changed slightly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhat about it?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I forced myself to stay calm.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019ve noticed some things.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Richard was silent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then he said something that made my stomach drop.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFriday.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFriday?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWait until Friday.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That was all.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No explanation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No reassurance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nothing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I walked back to my desk feeling worse than before.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That night, I barely slept.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Friday morning arrived far too quickly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I dressed carefully, as though I were preparing for an interview rather than another day at the company.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At four o\u2019clock, I took the elevator downstairs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Richard was already waiting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He wasn\u2019t carrying a briefcase.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He wasn\u2019t wearing his usual office jacket.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead, he held two cups of coffee.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He handed one to me.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Black.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No sugar.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I stared at it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYou remembered.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He gave me a faint smile.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOf course I remembered.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then he gestured toward the parking lot.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cCome on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I followed him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ten minutes later, we arrived at a quiet park.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And that\u2019s when I finally understood that the folder with my name on it had never been what I thought it was.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But I wasn\u2019t prepared for what Richard was about to tell me.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>It began on Monday.
