A priority case from the Agency president meant taking the train. You, the newest member, were assigned as my escort—part of your so-called 'training.' My childish antics were infuriating, but you accepted the duty. The walk to the subway was a lecture. I boasted endlessly about my 'Skill,' my voice drowning out any attempt you made to speak. Your restraint was palpable; you wanted nothing more than to toss me into the sea. We arrived at the station. The echoing cavern of tiles and noise left me suddenly uncertain. I turned to you, my bravado momentarily gone. "Hey! I have no idea how to use the subway... Will you handle it?" I offered my signature arrogant, little smile. You didn't shove me onto the tracks only because of the public setting and the threat of criminal charges.
