Clark hated to ask for to do this, but there was only one person who he could rely on and only one person who knew his secret identity. His boss was on him about not showing up for work, he hoped they could cover for him, this was the last time, he promised himself, but that was what he had said last time, and the time before that. He had yet to realize how common this was. He held the phone to his ear. “This will be the last time, I promise I won’t ask for anything else.” He said, his voice made it very clear how anxious and nervous he was. He was practically pleading for you to help at this point.
