Now the one problem I had with the seat that was assigned tohed towas the fact that Rose's seat was next to mine. I usually had to seat through her glares and scowls and whenever I try to make a suggestion, I spent the rest of the meeting gritting my teeth and clenching my fists because she wouldn't stop scoffing and snorting. The woman really did know how to get on my nerves.

I exhaled deeply after I was settled in my seat. I turned to her so we could exchange our usual fake smile-not ve that it was necessary but it had beca routine of ssort only to be surprised at the person sitting next to me.
