Faith woke up earlier than usual. It was more like she had no sleep at all. No matter how much she tried and rolled on the bed she found very comfortable, she could not bring herself to have a peaceful sleep without tearing up. She just wished she could lace her fingers on the exact thing that was happening to her, but too bad. She could not.She got dressed and when it was time to go to her boss, she hesitated.

"I will give what you want." He walked back to his swivel chair and sat. He saw an envelope on his desk and opened, wondering what it was about.It was her resignation letter.
