D is for Dystopia

There is the merest suggestion of tension in the air as she crosses the office, but maybe it's just paranoia. She places her jacket on the back of the chair and turns on the computer. Bernard puts a cup of coffee on her desk silently. She opens her mouth to greet him but he avoids her gaze and gathers files from the desk. Sweat prickles at the back of her neck. Just act normal she tells herself, everything will be fine. The knock at the door makes her start.
"Some people to see you Miss Adamson," says Bernard stepping aside.

  1. I had to go and look dystopia up! Nice sense of unease in that post.
