I can't reach Priscilla.

Call after call gets cancelled, text after text undelivered... I'm panicking.

As I rush out of the conference room, Bru bumps into me. But one look at my face, and she holds me by the shoulders. "Woah, G. What happened?"

I can hardly breathe as one more call to Cilla gets cancelled. I swallow hard. "It's Cilla… Bru, the- the termination letter. Smith, Bru. Smith- I need to go see her. I- I need to go."

That's all I can manage to get out of my system before I pull away from her, running for the lift. But it couldn't have gone down slower than it did. I'm sweating by the time I clamber out of it, making a dash for my car when the valet brings it out, but I doubt my sweating more than normal in an air conditioned office has anything to do with heat.

Priscilla... baby, don't do anything stupid... just wait for me. Please.

It's all I can think of as I speed away for her apartment.
