| smiled awkwardly and took her hand in mine. She shakes my hand firmly. “I’m Sophie. Bernard’s new secretary. Sorry about earlier, I thought I just saw…
I trailed off unsure of what to say without sounding crazy.
“I thought I saw a ghost.”
Really Sophie? A ghost doesn’t make you sound crazy at all. My conscious mocked me sar castically.
I wanted to groan out loud. I must sound like a complete nut job right now.
