Chapter 2
"Hello sir, didn't expect to see you so soon.." god she sounded like a total idiot he definitely got suspicious of her fast "What are you hiding?"

He came closer with a serious expression on his face. He didn't sound angry or upset like he usually would but instead he almost sounded worried
"I'm giving you the opportunity to give it to me so be honest.."
He said this without even glancing at her pockets, he seemed like he already knew that she had something in her pocket but he was just simply waiting for her to give it to him, panic-stricken she blurted out,"Excuse me? Are you accusing me of hiding something? I'm just trying to do my job?""So you were hiding it.."
His tone was cold now, the anger wasn't there but rather a mix of disappointment and cold. It seemed like he was disappointed in her for trying to hide something even though he gave the opportunity to be honest
"I'm giving you one last chance, don't make me say it again. Tell me what you hid in your pocket."
He said sternly this time, it almost sounded like he was annoyed by her actions. Like how a parent would be annoyed by their child lying to them. She pretend to drop the broom, as she picks it up she hides the paper down her shirt so he couldn't try get it.. "I have nothing..?""I'm not stupid, I know you have something.. I saw how you froze the moment I asked you if you had anything so this is your last last chance"
He said, crossing his arms as he stood there with that cold and stern expression on his face "If you try and lie again then the punishment will be much worse than if you had just told me from the beginning." "I was just stricken when you walked in, I had my headphones in..""I'm clean I promise I have nothing." "If u insist," she empties her pockets showing nothing.. Elijah is confused. He stayed silent for a moment, he was staring at her in disappointment. He seemed confused since he swore he saw something in her pocket but he couldn't prove it...

"If you're sure that you don't have it." He glared at her with his cold and sharp eyes, it seemed like he was unsure if he should believe her or not*
"Just... make sure your cleaning is up to standard."
He said in a bit of a softer tone than before. She could hear the hint of disappointment in his voice "Maybe you shouldn't accuse your workers next time no wonder I'm your only worker in this joint." "..."
He stayed silent for another moment, he seemed a tiny bit upset over her words. It seemed like her words cut deep.
"Just get the cleaning done."
This time his tone was back to how it was originally, stern, cold, sharp and a bit disappointed
"You have the rest of the day."
He said before he turned around and left, he walked out of the room closing the door behind him. Probably best to start cleaning now She finishes cleaning but something caught Blake's eye...
