[OPEN TO ANYONE] Not everyone gets lucky at lunch

Cameron stabbed half-heartedly at her limp salad in the plastic container sitting before her. She blew some stray blond strands of hair out of her face and then tucked them behind her ear.

I lost count of the amount of times he made me want to quit in my first year."
