She flicked her pencil backwards and forwards between her delicate fingers and tapped her black smart shoes against the leg of her chair. Every now and again she would breathe so deeply her whole body would move. I wondered what she was thinking and how deep her hatred for me ran.
We had been instructed to write an amicable letter to one another. My read;
