pissed off and offended. He thought he had clicked with this woman! There was something special about her from that night at the salsa club. But it was getting increasingly clear to Sam that she had just used him. Sam was dejected when the sun rose early that morning. He found Genevieve’s number in his phone and deleted it.
     
    That chapter was now over.
     

Chapter 8
     
    After a couple days, the entire situation at work had blown over. Genevieve couldn’t seem to get a hold of Sam even after the problem had been solved. Was he really that angry with her about their date ending so abruptly? Genevieve wanted to explain things to him and she wanted another chance to make it up to him. But Sam had gone off the radar and Genevieve had no choice but to deal with it until he returned.
     
    She was at work, moping over the apparent loss of this new man in her life when she began to think this was all some great conspiracy against her. Too many things were going wrong at once and Genevieve was starting to become distrustful. She knew she should really call her sister Nathalie to discuss this, but Genevieve also wanted to become a more open person. She couldn’t just throw all her problems onto her sister; she needed to let new people in. There was no better way than opening up to her new friend Greta. Genevieve was starting to come down hard on herself for not letting anyone in. Nathalie had made a good point about all human interaction, not just interactions involving men. Genevieve was too content to sit and wait. It was important that she build relationships more proactively.
     
    In that vein of thinking, Genevieve called Greta over to her desk after Sam ignored another one of her texts. Greta seemed to have a new man on her arm weekly. Perhaps she would have some insight into men’s behavior that Genevieve had missed. Plus, Genevieve was desperate to share her conspiracy theory with someone and Greta was the only person she even remotely trusted.
     
    “Greta… I think something’s wrong. I think someone is out to get me,” Genevieve whispered. She looked around hoping her boss wouldn’t notice her indulging in some gossipy drivel on the clock. Even if they worked for a decidedly non-serious clickbait site, her boss treated their job like they were BBC journalists and not trashy tabloid writers.
     
    Greta sat next to Genevieve with a concerned look on her face. You had to hand it to her, she was a talented actress.
     
    “What do you mean?” She asked. Her tone betrayed none of her involvement in the “shocking” string of terrible things that were happening to Genevieve. Greta was totally calm. She wasn’t worried at all about Genevieve discovering what she’d been up to.
     
    “Well… This might sound a bit crazy. It’s just that ever since the incident with our boss, I haven’t been able to get in touch with Sam. I just feel like someone is sabotaging me. I know it’s bat shit insane but I’m just worried…” Genevieve began.
     
    Greta nodded. She was playing the part of a concerned friend incredibly well. Now all she needed to do was throw Genevieve off course. She was confident that Genevieve would never suspect her anyways, but she needed to take things to the next level to protect their relationship. Through all of this, Greta didn’t want to lose a friend just yet.
     
    Once Genevieve was done elaborating on the reasons she believed someone was out to get her, Greta planted a suspect in her mind. The suspect was an easy target: unfriendly, competitive and quiet. You never knew what that type of person might be up to.
     
    “You know Gen…” Greta began. She leaned in closer to Genevieve so no one in the office could hear a word she said.
     
    Greta continued, “I’ve seen Jackie Lee being super shady around your computer when you’re on lunch break. Not to mention… I think she has it out for you. She just looks racist. I mean… Look at her beady little eyes. There’s just something
