Dad’s Determination
Dad’s eyes sharpened, and his posture shifted—no longer simply observing, but ready to act. He glanced at me, then turned to the crowd with steady resolve. “It’s time for change, and I promise it’s coming,” he declared, his voice ringing with clarity and confidence. The firm determination on his face spoke volumes, assuring everyone that a plan was already in motion. In that moment, a wave of hope swept through the room—a silent but powerful promise that fairness and accountability were on their way back.

Manager’s Shaky Defense
My manager’s voice rose with nervous urgency as he tried to defend his decisions. “Listen, these changes… they were necessary,” he stammered, but the cracks in his reasoning only deepened the scrutiny. Each contradiction he uttered pulled the room’s attention tighter around him, exposing the chaos he had created. Watching him flail to hold it all together was almost pitiful. Dad observed silently, fully aware that this unraveling was no accident—it was the natural consequence of his own mismanagement. And now, everyone could see just how fragile the foundation beneath him had become.
