Gwen
“I’m sorry to interrupt, Gwen, but we are short-staffed on the floor
and Stacey needs to take her lunch break. Could you come out to help?”
I look up from my desk at my co-worker, coming out of my
paperwork induced tunnel vision slowly. “Sure, Debbie. Give me just a
minute to file these, and I’ll be right out.”
“Thanks, Gwen. You’re a lifesaver.”
I smile at her then turn back to the mortgage loan application I had
been reviewing. I quickly file the paperwork and clear my desk before
heading out to the front of the bank. As I walk across the marble floors, I
take in the grand lobby of the old building, which never fails to make me
smile. I huff a small laugh as I pass our elderly security guard, Hank, who
has fallen asleep on his stool near the entrance. My father’s warning about
working at this old bank, with its outdated, lax, and often failing security
features, briefly crosses my mind, but I push the thought away. This bank is
in one of the cornerstones of the city, and the building has always felt like
home to me. There is nowhere else I’d rather be.
There are only a few people in line, but I move quickly to a teller
station and login to the computer so I can help the next person. He’s a tall,
sharply dressed man with raven hair and green eyes. He looks to be in his
late thirties or early forties. Despite his clean-cut appearance, there is
something off about him that makes me uneasy, but I force a smile to my
lips.
“Hello, sir. How can I help you?” I ask as he approaches the counter.
He returns my smile, and I can’t stop the uncomfortable shiver that runs up
my spine.
“I’d like to open a safety deposit box, please.” As he speaks, he leans
one elbow on the counter, and my eyes are drawn to his hand where I notice
a large tattoo that disappears up his sleeve. I can clearly see the tail of a
snake in black and yellow ink.
“Um, of course,” I stammer as I grab the necessary forms. “If you
could just fill these out, I can get that process started for you right away.”
He smiles again as he takes the forms, and using the pen chained to
the counter, he fills them out quickly and passes them back to me along
with his ID.
I glance at his driver’s license and quickly input the
information into the system. When I’m finished, I look back at the man in
front of me and ask, “Do you have anything you’d like to put in the box
today or would you just like to take your key?”
“I’d like to see the box, please. I have a few things with me today.”
