Snippet #1978027

Karl's gazes shifted between the two men as they kept on arguing and discussing things she barely understood. She wanted to shout at both men but contained herself. This is just one of those days where she couldn't give any damn about other people and she just wants all of this to be over with, go back home and snuggle in her bed. But no, she had to face this and only time can tell when this would actually end.

And after all the rambling and exchange of harsh words Rizali directed his words towards her,“Agent Lowre want to face the music now? The anthem that opens the credits for your big case, guest starring Dissanayake?”

She paused and wanted to squeeze his aching body parts, how dare he mock her with those words. But as usual, Karl composed herself before replying, "I believe I am but are you?" She looked straight into his eyes as if she was criticizing his injuries.

She let the tip of her fingertips tap against one another with both hands at her back. She drummed them quietly waiting for him to match her foul mood but she should know better.

"I should be leaving in a while, I've got other things to investigate for the day. I can't wait for you to recover before I make any move. We are against time as well," She adjusted the strap of her bag on her shoulder and then faced Eanruig.

She saluted the man and spoke, "I must head now Director, it was nice meeting you and rest assured that you can contact me when you need me. For now, I must investigate with this case instead of "babysitting" your agent, don't you think?" Of course, Karl was insulted when the bastard called her a baby sitter. She is proud of her job (even if she hates it from time to time) and he had no right to mock her. She didn't came all the way from a flight just to be ridiculed.

She gave the director a polite nod and didn't acknowledge Rizali's presence and headed towards the door.
