He stared at me.
I opened my arms wide. ‘So are you gonna move and let me get it done?’
‘I can’t,’ he said. ‘I have to fix it.’
‘Jesus Christ. It’s very simple… I take my photocopy, I go. Are you understanding me?’ I was raising my voice now.
‘If I could, I would,’ he said.
He was cool, far too cool. Here I was losing my temper and he was holding it together. Was that a smirk playing on his lips? My blood was beginning to boil. I bit my lip before I swore.
