The letter was folded neatly on my desk, there was no
envelop. My heartbeat quickened and I could feel my blood pump through my
temples. The paper sounded like thunder, shaking in my hands. I undid the
careful folds. It was to the point. I was fired. They didn’t even have the decency
to tell me to my face. I found little relief in the certainty of my situation.
Instead I was overcome by a great lethargy. I moved as a sloth, gathering my
few possessions in a cardboard box and dragged my feet towards the office door,
head bowed.
