2nd E/O Challenge. Challenge word "Crush". Challenge was to be from a different perspective. Don't know about you-all, but I was hoping they'd go somewhere nice with Jody and Bobby. Yeah, that was completely shot to hell.

Those hopes crushed now. Dead, as he was.

She hears someone coming toward her office, sighs. Life, as some idjit put it, goes on.

The door opens.
