Mark’s knowing gaze
As I concentrated, I noticed Mark, the IT technician, watching me from across the room. He seemed to guess that something was afoot. Always attentive, he picked up on signals that went unnoticed by the others. He raised an eyebrow and nodded slightly, as if to give me a silent round of applause. I smiled involuntarily, hoping that he had understood that something important was about to happen.
