"I am threw with sorting and organizing the files you asked me to sir, and I've done everything else as well." I said after entering his office keeping a neutral face and posture as I held his gaze, "is there anything else I can do for you sir?"
"Not for now." he said, and I nodded about to leave, but then he held me by the arm stooping my movements as he said, "wait. Can we talk?"
"I thought you said that there wasn't anything else you needed me to do sir so why are you changing your statement now? Please to make up your mind."
"It's not about work." he said and I still remained neutral as I said.
"Well I am sorry sir, but incase you haven't noticed this is a place of work not a place of personal affairs, and unlike you and Carolina I would like to respect that."
"Marianna please. I need to talk to you." he said pleading, but I didn't show him an ounce of remorse.
"Well I don't want to talk to you sir for I have nothing to say."
