The awaited summons
As expected, the call arrived. “Susan, he wants to see you in his office,” a coworker said, their eyes full with concern and anticipation. Susan nodded, a sensation of certainty pouring over her. This was the moment they had been waiting for: the opportunity to face the matter head on. She took a big breath and stepped towards the office, prepared to reveal the truth.

In the quiet of the office, Susan showed her employer the tape, which clearly showed him upsetting the young seal by kicking its food and putting its play ball out of reach. His actions on screen spoke louder than words could. The boss watched, surprised and uncomfortable, as his casual cruelty was exposed for both of them to witness.
