For the past month, Emily had worked quietly at the bustling downtown restaurant, sticking to a strict routine and keeping to herself. She rarely interacted with her colleagues, blending into the background of the chaotic dinner services. But one particularly hectic evening, a tense encounter with a difficult customer escalated beyond control. Seizing the moment, the manager, David, decided to fire her on the spot, accusing her of being bad for business. Emily said nothing. She gathered her belongings in silence, her expression unreadable, and walked out without a word. As the door closed behind her, an unsettling feeling crept over David—a nagging sense that he had made a terrible mistake. The next morning, his unease turned to shock. Pale and speechless, David uncovered the truth about who Emily really was.
