I can't stop pacing around my office. I have a pretty good job and it pays well. Usually I enjoy it too. But today I can't focus. I can only worry. Worry about what might be happening to my best friend right now.
I think I screwed up big time. I left him with who knows what kind of woman doing who knows what to him. My own stupidness might be very costly.
It has been a whole week since I tried to call him. I have left him alone since then. I kept telling myself that it is better for me to stay out of it but I feel an aching pain in my chest that can only be described as guilt.
I should get back to work. If I get fired then I will probably get evicted and I don't need that right now.
"Hey did you see this?" My office buddy, Conner, asked me.
"What?" I asked. He pointed towards the small tv on his desk as an answer. "It's says that AGT finalist Tape Face is in the hospital!" I read aloud. Panic was clear in my voice.
"Yeah..." Conner trailed off. "I wonder what happened."
My thoughts went wild. What happened? Is he ok? No that's a stupid question, obviously he is not.
"I'm leaving." I quickly say to Conner as I gather my things.
"Where?" He asked without looking up from his work.
"I'm going to help him."
I rush out of our office door and run right into my boss.
"Where are you going?" She asked as she glared at me over the top of her glasses.
"I have to leave!" Panic is now spreading through my body.
"You leave now and your fired." She said casually. "It's still the middle of the work day."
I thought about it for a moment. I really needed this job right now. On top of that, this is my dream job. I've worked to get here. It hasn't been easy.
I sigh and then head back towards my office. What was I thinking I could do anyway? I can't really help.
"Good." She says. I can feel her cold eyes watching me as I walk away.
My phone buzzes so I reach into my pocket to see who messaged me. But it wasn't a message, it was a reminder I had set to remind myself to message Sam.
My mind filled with all of the thoughts from earlier again. I got mad and worried. All the feelings that I needed to stand up to my boss were there.
"No!" I said. Then I turned around on my heels. "I am leaving!"
"You'll lose your job." My boss said.
"That's just fine. I don't need your crappy job anyways." I walked out. My next stop was the airport. Looks like I am going to try and help after all.
