LUCY
A podcaster has decided to ruin my life, so I’m buying a chicken.
I make plans for this chicken as I sit in my cubicle at Walter J. Brown
Investment Services, waiting to be fired. I stopped pretending to work two
hours ago. Now I’m just staring at recipes on my phone, dreaming about
sticking lemons up a chicken’s butt.
It’s an apology chicken, for my boyfriend.
It’s like that engagement chicken. The one women make to persuade
their boyfriends to propose? Except this is a “sorry I didn’t tell you I’m the
prime suspect in my friend’s murder” chicken.
Apology chicken, for short.
“Lucy?”
I look up from my phone to see my boss standing at the door of his
office. He adjusts his tie and clears his throat.
“Could you come in for a minute?” he asks.
Finally. They clearly decided to fire me this morning. Glass office walls
are a strange choice always, but especially when you have a meeting with
three other managers, and none of them can stop glancing over at your
assistant, whom they are clearly discussing, for the entire conversation.
“Sure.” I slide my phone into my pocket and follow him into his
immaculate office.
I’m struck by how pristine it is, even after nearly a year of working for
him. There’s nothing on the beige walls. No boxes piled in a corner. The
desk is completely bare except for the monitor and the keyboard.
Every evening, when Jerry Howell walks out of his office, he leaves
absolutely no evidence that he was ever there. He probably missed his
calling as a serial killer.
