The Case

Chapter 5

I immediately lifted my head from the desk to see if anyone around me was watching.  I could spot desk cubicles lined next to each other in rows, multiple stacks of papers but nothing seemed out of place. Until I stared at the other side of the room, by the bathroom I could spot a guy with a brownish hood sweatshirt quickly enter and close the door to the restroom.  I could spot some of his features of his clothes, but it seemed like it was someone I did not recognize.

I quickly turned to my neighbor Veronica and asked her if she had spotted any new or strange faces in the office the past couple of days. She did tell me that there have been some random delivery men going in and out of the office. I knew I should’ve kept this part to myself, but I asked here if she has noticed anything unusual…..

Right as I was about to go back to work at my cubical desk, I spotted the bathroom door open. The man with the hoodie came out but this time he was wearing what looked to be a sky mask. Unsure of what to do next, I immediately grabbed my cell phone and called 9/11.
