Patiently, Sarah said, "Because it is. It looks like mine
and that is what I wrote."
Henry made a monumental blunder and didn't realize it until it was
too late. After consistently arguing that the university would
never send student handwriting off campus to a document examiner,
he proposed just that! "We have samples of your handwriting
in the university files that we can send to have checked," he threatened.
"No. You cannot do that with student files. You have no right
to send my records away like that. You already have sent my SmurFF
and you have that as a sample of my writing if you need it."
"Are you afraid?" Henry tried for intimidation to cover his faux pas.
"Of what?"
"Yes, I'm afraid. I'm afraid of who's on the other side of this.
I'm afraid of who is lying about Dr. Trenchant and what could happen
to me for coming here to testify."
Once again, Anuse led her through questions, to explain how
she had seen the copy of this evaluation. Finally he said,
"and what did you think when you saw it?"
Her answer, delivered in a soft but firmly decisive tone,
landed like a bombshell in the midst of the panel.
