Ama was heading to her new assignment when she saw someone coming. Avoxes in the hallway in the open not working was unseemly, Ama knew, so she looked around quickly, desperate to find something, anything, to hide behind before she could get caught. She would have taken the avox corridor, but the Peacekeeper had stressed the importance of time, and the regular hallway was so much faster. Ama saw an alcove and tucked herself into it, hastily pretending she was dusting until the steps faded away. She waited another moment, then slipped back out, right into the path of someone else. She winced, just for a fraction of a moment, before remembering her place and leveling her face.
