The Control Booths: A Short Story

Decent Essays
I share the control booth with Mr. Zakeri. On December 8, 2016, I was working at my desk in the control booth when Sarah stormed into the control booth waving her hands and confronting Mr. Zakeri regarding Mr. Shawn Lyons, “ why is he fucking with me and why is he picking on me?” she stated. “I am tired of this. I will take this upstairs, so everyone can stop fucking with me.”
Mr. Shawn Lyons who earlier was standing just outside the control boot, stepped into the control booth and asked, “ what is going on?” Sarah replied, “You guys are fucking with me and I don’t need this. I will leave and go home and take the rest of the night off.”

Next, Sarah slammed the control room door as she left the room.

The sun glistened in the sky and the children playing baseball in the park reminded me of my conversation about baseball books with Holly from the other night at her party.…
