A crazy idea popped inside my head. I was not sure whether this would work favourably or this entire plan would ruin me.
But the quiet hallway gave me the confidence to escape. It's now or never. But I need to be smart for this. Quick and subtle!
I grabbed the coat that was hanging by the coat holder and stood readied by the door. My heart pumped twice as hard with adrenaline and my shaky hand was waiting for the right moment to slide it open.
Sounds of the elevator 'ding' permeated through the hallway and I ducked!
'Is he here?' My ear pushed against the door but there were no footsteps.I took a couple of breaths.
I need to stay calm. Be calm and thorough to execute this perfectly because one wrong move, he would be on my tail faster than expected.
As soon as my wrist slid the door open, I put on my happy mask and stepped out with a deliberate step. Just as I wanted, the two women were shocked to see me.
