The next night, I stood outside my former workplace, watching as a group of my female coworkers gathered to leave the office together. I had decided to wait for them, determined to take a step toward mending the strained relationships that had plagued my time at the firm.
As they made their way out of the building, deep in conversation, I took a deep breath and approached them. It was an intimidating moment, as I hadn’t interacted with them for quite some time, and I couldn’t help but feel anxious at how they might have perceived me at that point.
“Hi,” I greeted them tentatively, trying to sound as friendly as possible. “Would you all like to join me for dinner? My treat.”
“Evie!” Beth was the first to speak, though her voice came out a little strained. “Didn’t think we would see you again after you stormed into Erickson’s office.”
I shrugged. “You’re still colleagues to me, and besides, I wanted to catch up on a few things with you
Their reactions were still guarded, as I’m sure the drama surrounding my departure from the firm was still fresh
on their minds. After a brief moment of hesitation, Faith was the next one to speak.
“We’re not sure, Evie,” she replied cautiously, her eyes reflecting uncertainty. “But, well, we feel kinda bad about how you were almost blacklisted. It wasn’t right.”
“I understand your concerns,” I said with a warm smile. “But I’d really like to make amends and spend some time
with you all. It would mean a lot to me.”
After a bit more deliberation, they agreed to join me for dinner, and we made our way to a nearby restaurant.
The tension that had initially hung in the air seemed to loosen
It started with cautious conversation and the exchange of pleasantries. But it was Beth who broke the surface of our polite discourse by raising the issue that had been my whole motivation for the night.
“Evie,” she said, her tone sincere and filled with regret, “we feel terrible about what you went through. It wasn’t right, and we wish we could’ve done more.”
“I understand why you couldn’t,” I replied with a warm smile. “It was an awful time, and I appreciate your support now.”
