Richard was sitting behind his large desk.
Two lawyers stood beside him.
A thick folder lay on the desk.
And there, on the cover of that folder, was my photograph again. The continuation read in the comments 👇👇‼️‼️
“Emily, calm down,” he said.
“I will NOT calm down! Yesterday, you promised me more money, and today you’ve humiliated me in front of everyone!”
Richard slowly stood up.
“I haven’t humiliated you.”
“Then why doesn’t my access card work? Why is everyone looking at me strangely? And why are there lawyers here?”
He glanced at one of the lawyers.
The man opened the folder.
It contained numerous documents.
Across the first page, in large letters, were the words:
“TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT.”
My tears began to fall.
“Are you firing me?”
Richard said nothing.
I felt as though my entire world was collapsing.
I had no money for my mother’s next treatment.
