‘But I didn’t know what she was up to. How could I?’
‘You were her assistant. You processed some of the transfers.’
‘Because she told me to!’
‘To her own accounts. Did you not think it was strange?’
‘Every time I’ve raised an issue with you, you tell me to just do what I’m told.’
‘I’m your boss!’
‘And she was my line manager.’
‘You’re an accessory to burglary!’
‘You’re just looking for someone to blame now she’s fled.’
A drabble is a story of exactly 100 words.
