The Office Visit

Sep 15th, 2020 by thegooddoctor in 100 Words

In his office at the university, Professor Kudrow pounds on the computer keyboard. His research paper needs a rewrite, his ex-wife wants more child support and he feels a migraine coming on. He wants to go home and get drunk.

His grad student, James, appears in the doorway with an older gentleman.

After introductions, James’ father confronts the professor.

“My son paid you for a better grade, didn’t he? Don’t lie to me. I have documents.”

The professor froze.

“Your silence is proof enough.”

He turns to his son, “My son, a thief and cheat! I’m reporting both of you.”
