Prologue
Countless times I've taken these steps.
Countless times I've been standing at this very spot.
Countless times I've been worried about my job, my career, yes, even my live.
But somehow I've never been so terrified before.
I stood in front of Hightower's office for almost 10 minutes now, sometimes raising my hand to knock on the wooden door then hesitating because I couldn't bring up the courage to do so and finally dropping my hand again. I knew this conversation would change my life and I didn't want it to. I was scared of changes. I wanted my old life to last as long as possible, but I knew I had no choice and I couldn't avoid it anyway so I raised my hand once more and, finally, knocked on the door.
"Come in, please" I heard Hightower's muffled voice from the inside. I took one last deep breath, then opened the door and stepped in.
AN: Anyone interested in beta reading my stories?
