"I only wanted it said plainly, between us, before it becomes something the entire council watches you navigate in public." "Thank you," I said, and meant it. "For the warning, and for not assuming I needed convincing." "You have never needed convincing about the things that actually matter to you," Conrad said, rising slowly from the chair. "You needed convincing about smaller things, occasionally. Border allocations. New construction. This was never going to be one of them." He left shortly after, and I remained at my desk a long while, the fading afternoon light shifting slowly across the reports I was no longer reading.

Dawn nodded at him, he did the same. “Here is a list of activities the Writer’s club participates in for this school year. The elected representative will let you know of any updates. You can also tell them any of your concerns and they will pass it on to us. If you still need help and the representative can’t answer, any of the officers will be able to help.” Bridget Concepcion was the Vice-President of the Writer’s club.

from the school making a presentation, because of the prestige it brought to the school. The fourth reason was to socialize with faculty from other schools, perhaps other alums from the PhD business school you attended. Conventions provide plenty of access to captive eating and drinking establishments where faculty teaching at different schools in different departments could meet their friends to relax on their school's expense account to trade gossip. This sounds like an opportunity for assignations, but really, unless you bring your own female or have a same-time-next-year arrangement, the opportunities for naked fun at a business convention are slim to none - unless you write textbooks.

"Why did Channing Radomil ask you for help a few days ago?" "You asked me that evening, Mr. Conrad. Chan required some cash.” "Has he got the money?" After a long pause, the manager responded, "Yes, he has." Clarence appeared more icy. "Who gave it to him?" The manager's legs felt weaker. He was momentarily unable to find his tongue. Channing came to him in an attempt to sell his letter of acceptance to the institution. Many wealthy families were eager to engage in this form of commerce even though it was prohibited. The wealthy found their own solutions to deal with the fallout after receiving their acceptance letters.

I didn’t wait for him to acknowledge it. “I also know,” I continued smoothly, “that it was Conrad who found the land, who encouraged you to purchase the retreat centre in the first place. He said it was a hidden gem, didn’t he? Secluded and scenic, which was perfect for a recovery-based treatment model.” Delaney narrowed his eyes, his mouth tight with irritation now. “You’re wasting my time,” he said curtly. “Two and a half minutes left, and all you’ve told me is what I already know.”

She opens it and her eyes widen in shock as she reads the front. "Contract of Conceptual Agreement of Matrimony." She covers her mouth and looks toward the door, hoping no one is by the door to catch her. She begins to read and realizes the importance of the document. This is too good to let pass. She takes her phone out and begins to snap pictures of the document and sends it to herself in an email and to a different address.

Give to me . ’Cause forever ain’t the same, without your touch . . . It’s a surplus gain, an endless pain . . . I pushed the door open. “It’s a forbidden gain,” I said softly. “ ‘Surplus’ is too fancy. ‘Forbidden’ works better.” Conor stopped playing and looked back at me. I walked into the garage, letting the door close behind me, and took his notebook in my hands.

the music club rep objected. Liam ignored him and moved on to the next paper, “Drama club needs money to fund the school play. Now, this is a good cause! Approved!” “Yes!” I exclaimed not minding the way the other club rep glared at me. I walked to Liam’s table and bowed in a dramatic way, “Thank you, Mr President.” He replied with a wink and I walked out of the council room. Immediately I stepped into the hallway, my phone lit up. It was a text from Conrad.

Connor led me to the couch against one of the walls in a corner, earning a confused glance from myself. "What are we doing? The party's over there." He smiled, turning to face me and placing his arm on the back of the couch. "We are finishing that paper. Get out your phone, start writing." I smiled, placing my head against his shoulder. "I've been drinking, I'll do it tomorrow." Connor chuckled, "You drank half of my beer, you're sober enough to write some of this paper." I shrugged, about to come up with another excuse of why I can't write the paper, but Elijah ran up to us.

The period ended 1–1. This time I didn’t wait for Ethan to come to me. I stood, gathered my papers, and walked out to the concourse just for air. The arena felt bigger outside the glass. Colder. Students packed the concession lines, shouting over each other about power play percentages and missed coverage like hockey had always been religion here and I’d just arrived late to church. I found a quieter patch of wall near the vending machines and opened my notebook again. The problem was clear now. I wasn’t writing a game story anymore.
