POV- Harleen Quinzel


I sipped the warm coffee. It was crappy cheap coffee but I drank it anyways. As the hot liquid slid down my throat I glanced around the break room.

It was worn down and old. The tiles had turned a pale yellow color and most of the chairs were plastic and broken. Plain walls were painted white but had chipped and only one of the vending machines worked. I found that out earlier when one of them took my dollar bill.

I looked at the silver watch on my small wrist. Almost 4:30 and that means my break is almost over. I sighed and got up from the chair. When I walked into the office to confirm the time I get off, my boss told me I had the job of staying longer tonight to lock up the offices. I sighed to myself.

Oh great! Just what I wanted.

I've always wanted to be a psychiatrist and when I got the internship I was ecstatic. But sitting around all day in a boring office and barely being trained, maybe two times a week, was not my idea of becoming a psychiatrist.

After a long five hours of doing absolutely nothing everyone had left. It was just me. I locked up all of the offices, went down to the main floor and opened the doors leading to one of Gotham's many streets. As I was turning the key in the keyhole I heard something across the street.

Why did I have to be the one to stay here until it was dark?!

I turned around and focused my eyes on the empty street across from me. Nothing. I sighed in relief but darted to my car, got in and started the engine. When I buckled myself in I sped off down the streets. I didn't even wait for the car to get warm enough.

All I wanted was to get home to my safe little apartment and relax. I drove up to the apartment complex and got out of the car. I rushed to the doors and ran upstairs to my apartment.

At last I barged through the door and slammed it behind me. I turned on the lamps letting light fill the small living area. Before I sat on the couch I decided to put my fleece pajamas on. After that I went to the tiny bathroom and took off the little makeup I had on. Walking into the kitchen I turned on the teapot, got a teabag out and let the water boil.

Noticing that the blinds were still open I went over to the big window and looked out at the view. Gotham for once actually looked peaceful. I didn't even hear any sounds.

That soon ended with a scream and a loud bang down the street. I jumped when I heard the teapot whistling. I shut the blinds and rushed to take the teapot off.

After my tea was finally ready and made, I flopped down on the couch. I wrapped a blanket around my shoulders and grabbed the remote clicking the power button.

Another dumb late night 'comedy' show was on. I flipped through the channels for a couple minutes and decided to watch the news.

The young news anchorwoman looked tired. She was talking about a murder that had happened right before I got home.

I got comfortable and opened my ears to listen.

"Just in, a young man, most likely in his 20s, was murdered outside of a local club. We aren't sure who murdered this young man but the GCPD will…."

Before I could hear the rest of the story I started to drift off into a deep sleep.
