It is
my lot to work in the minister’s secretariat. I have had no problem with his
predecessors as I was not intrusive. Trouble started with this new minister who
had shady past.
Last
week a businessman was in his room. I had to go in to announce the arrival of
some media personnel just as a suitcase was being delivered. His face turned
red.
Today
he was with his lady officer specifically forbidding anyone inside.
Unexpectedly his wife came and barged in without my permission. When I heard
the shocked scream, I knew it was my last day there.
Written as a part of 100 words on Saturday 7 at Write Tribe. The prompt being I knew it was my last day there.
Good take.

That was a good attempt at the short fiction. Real though it is in these days.
