The meeting was closed but before I dismissed them, Lester blurted out, "What's with the boxes?"
Just like place setting cards, Steph had placed little black boxes in front of each core team member.
Hector looked at Stephanie, then at me, back to Steph, then slowly to Bobby, who had his blank face slammed down, trying desperately to be unmindful of his intense scrutiny. When he cast his eyes my way again, he grinned, lifted his chin and nodded his head. All these actions were very slight.
Lester noticed our silent interaction.
"Alright already. Something's going on! Care to share?"
