“His stance, with hands tucked into blue jeans, held nothing casual about it. More than powerful, he seemed menacing, even.

Perhaps that might have been better. Instead, a clean, diplomatic dismissal. And this note. Don't worry. You're not in it. An act of kindness. Perhaps, more accurately, an act of charity. He should be relieved. But it hurts. He feels the blow of it, like an ax to the head.”
