The thought of not being able to return sent shivers down her spine. Nervously, she approached the alarm system again and triggered it once more. Melissa’s heart raced. Would they hold her responsible for something?
Luck Abandoned Her
Melissa understood that the security personnel were doing their duty, but her nervousness worsened. Perhaps luck had deserted her that day. She was playing with fire. She knew it was only a matter of time until her secret was revealed.
“I would like to speak to the manager,” Melissa requested from the security guard. She tried to appear as composed as possible, despite feeling like she was about to burst from within. She simply wanted to escape, but now that seemed impossible.
She Tried
Frustrated by the whole situation, Melissa decided to speak to the store manager. The good news was that the manager came, apologized, and promised to resolve the situation as quickly as possible.
