Gossip And Concerns
Maria and Thomas’s conversation drew me in, and I edged closer, mindful not to interrupt. “This inspection has everyone on edge, especially with Derek’s latest blunders,” Thomas muttered, rubbing his temples in frustration. Maria let out a heavy sigh. “It’s like waiting for a storm—knowing it’s coming but unable to dodge it.” Their concern hung in the air, thick and unspoken, painting a vivid picture of unease. Whatever was coming, it was clear something was quietly brewing beneath the surface.

I finally stepped forward, making my presence known. “Hey, I overheard you two. If it helps, I’m working on fixing things around here,” I said, my voice steady. Maria and Thomas exchanged surprised glances before Maria spoke, a hint of hope in her eyes. “Really?” she asked. I nodded, resolute and ready to bring in the change we so badly needed. The subtle way their shoulders eased told me everything—they’d been craving reassurance, and for the first time in a while, they had a reason to believe it might actually come.
