My hands gripped the steering wheel as I stared out through my windshield and took a deep breath. “You can do this, Nyomi. She’s only one person.” I let out a deep breath and turned off the car, shoving the keys into my pocket and slamming the door behind me.
My girlfriend, Stacy, has been working at her job for a few years now. Everything was great until her old boss decided to retire and they brought in someone new: Mia. She’s been making Stacey’s work life a living hell ever since she jumped into the role about six months ago. Every night, Stacey comes home and tells me all about how Mia tried to ruin her life that day.
At first, I couldn’t believe it. When I had met Mia at the company holiday party, she seemed so sweet and genuine. Apparently, all that changed for some reason after that night.
