Andrew was walking into the office fixing his sleeve when he heard an awfully familiar voice screaming for him down the hall.

"Bowen!"

His head dropped as he sighed. Picking his head back up he walked towards the
Director's office. He lifted his fist inchest from knocking when the door slung open.

"Bowen"

He straightened his posture and his hand fell to his side.

"Gale"

He said to the man standing before him. The man had short blonde hair he looked as if he was balding, He was maybe 5'9-5'10, And a tiny scruffy beard. Gale opened the door further to allow Andrew inside.

"Please take a seat"

Andrew walked inside and sat in a small comfy chair that was sitting right infront of a desk.

"Have I done something wrong, sir?"

"HaVe I DoNe sOmEtHiNg wRoNg"

Gale mimicked Andrew while sitting down in his seat. Gale leaned forward and laid his head on his hands.

"We both know good in well what you did"

He was right Andrew knew exactly what he did but he thought best if he acted as if he didn't.

"Sir, I'm really sorry but I dont know what your talking about"

He could see Gale was getting aggravated anyone could see Gale was getting aggravated. He wasnt easy to make mad but for some reason Andrew just got under his skin.

"Listen here kid I know what you're doing and it wont work with me, You got a free pass every other time because of who your dad is but that wont work today."

Andrew sat up straight slightly concerned. What was Gale talking about? What did he mean it wont work today.

"Your recklessness has gone to far kid I would say it pains me to say this but it doesn't. You're dismissed"

Andrew threw himself forward still sitting in the seat. His face was full of fear.

"No sir please I need this jo-"

"Dismissed"

"Sir-"

"Dismissed!"

Andrew dropped his head his hair falling over his face. He stayed silent which was rare for him.

"Get out of my office and pack your stuff while your at it"

Andrew did exactly what he was told..what was he going to do now? He cant stay in Washington. He noticed everyone looking at him as he walked down the halls with a box full of his stuff.

"Oh this? Im just removing my stuff I got a new position"

He lied
