“Mm. Pay a little more attention to what I’m doing, please.”
Wow.
He hadn’t said a word to me for half an hour, and now he had a stick up his arse.
I took a deep breath and smiled flatly at him. “Of course, sir.”

Me:How are things at the office?
Melody:It’s too quiet. It’s strange. I keep expecting Mr Black to pop out of his office and demand a cup of tea.
I chuckled and clicked the reply box on the group chat.
Me:Well, he just did that to me, if it helps. Although it was more him glaring at me across the room.
Daniel:You’re sharing an office???
Me:I take sympathy donations in size Sauvignon Blanc.
Melody:Perhaps you should take it in Gordon’s gin, instead.
Hm.
Ginwasstronger than wine, and I did enjoy a gin and lemonade every now and then.
Me:You might be onto something there.
Me:There hasn’t been any trouble, has there?
Daniel:Well…
Melody:It was nothing.
Me:Daniel. Talk.
Daniel:Emily Goldstein came back. She didn’t get past reception, but she caused a huge fuss, and the President has banned her from the building. I think they’re looking at legal ways to keep her away.
Good grief.
That woman really did have a screw loose.
Actually, she had the whole toolbox loose.
Me:Hmm. What did she want this time?
Melody:She claimed that she and Mr Black went out in university, so it was unreasonable that he didn’t want to see her.
Emily Goldstein and I had vastly different definitions of the word ‘unreasonable.’
Me:Perhaps them going out in university is why he doesn’t want to see her.
Daniel:I’ve only met her twice and I don’t want to see her, so I understand that.
Ha.
Tell me how you really feel, Daniel.
