She watches the workers dismantle the cupboards and wheel them out the door. She starts putting away her family portraits; there will be no place or time for these at the new premises. She shuts down her laptop and packs it away. She sips her coffee once, twice and looks out the window at the carpark where they usually wait for her. The only ones there are a lady and her toddler.
She is ready to leave. Her phone rings. She answers "Hello".
"We are here". No you aren't.
"Ok, I'm coming down now." No she isn't.
As they get into the car she looks up and sees a crane taking the company name down. When she first joined she was single. She hugs her son and remembers the journey so far. What's next?
