I shouldn't of doubted him, if anyone could make it through this....this ordeal, it would be him.
I sink back into my spinning chair, twirling around to face the window. My resolve to finish that report, disappearing completely.
"Leave." I quietly say.
Footsteps, then I hear the door click shut.

Slowly, I reach out and pick them up. Reading the names that I've looked at so many times over the last month.

Scowling, I stand up.
Time to go face the music.
I start walking towards the door, but a single file catches my eye. Stopping me in my tracks.
I delicately pick it up.
Walking over to the file cabinet, I open it up, placing the file inside.
