I walked out of the office, my feet aching, and a headache raging. Stepping into the elevator, I began to imagine sinking into a warm foamy bath.
"Kimberly!" A voice from the back of the elevator called. I turned around, dreading the conversation that was sure to ensue.
"Taylor. Hello." I forced a smile onto my face.
"Where are you off too?" she asked, huge smile on her face.
"Home, Taylor. I'll see you tomorrow, okay?" I made to step off the elevator, but she grabbed my arm and held me back. I watched longingly as everyone but Taylor and I got off at the ground floor.
"Maybe you could stay and work overtime and teach me more!" Taylor suggested eagerly.
"Taylor, I really just want to go home."
"But, Miss Kimberly, I have so much to learn."
