The Life That Followed
HANNAH’S POV:
Better late than losing her somewhere else. I was choosing to hold onto that.
The next morning she arrived with a printed document and placed it in front of me.
I looked at the number at the top.
“That is the market rate,” she said.
I looked at the number for a moment.
“It is on the higher end of the market rate,” I said.
“It is accurate for this city and this level of responsibility,” she said. “I can send you the sources if you would like.”
“You have sources?” I said.
“I have three sources,” she said. “And a comparison table.”
I looked at the comparison table she produced from behind the printed document. It was thorough in a way that was so completely Maya that I almost laughed.
“You prepared this before I offered you the role,” I said.
“I prepared it when I started to suspect you were going to offer me the role,” she said. “That was approximately four months ago.”
