Frozen Meals, Bland Vegetables, and a Side of Consequences
The arctic blast of the air conditioner sent a shiver down David’s spine, battling against the feverish ache simmering beneath his tailored suit. The faint hum of the fluorescent lights mingled with the rhythmic click-clack of unseen keyboards. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee and Doris’ signature donuts permeated the atmosphere, a comforting blend that usually signaled the start of a productive day.
David’s tie, usually a symbol of meticulous order, hung askew, a silent consequence of the previous evening’s transgressions. The shadow box on the wall, its worn oak frame hinting at a rugged past, displayed a constellation of medals and colorful ribbons — a testament to a lifetime of service and sacrifice.
