Chapter 4 - Elizabeth or Liz

What, did I do? Chris shouted and tried to get some salad on the glass casing but seems not able to open it. Then he saw Elisa smiling devilishly. Chris was forcing it to open but when he finally wanted to get the salad, it suddenly ticked open and the dish popped out and covered his face along with the lettuces, tomatoes, etc. All laughed including Veronica and Elisa. The employees knew who Chris is and he is the Head of the IT/Technical Department of the company. Chris brushed the greens off his face and suit and walked to where Veronica sat, the middle table in the cafeteria.

Elisa smiled at Veronica and laughed profusely at Chris. That SUITS you well, since you love nature and greens, hehe!, Veronica added can't stop laughing at Chris who is now pissed and dirty.

He went to the men's comfort room to clean himself up. When he heard a guy with a certain lady inside a cubicle.

Stop, Danny, hey, the woman whispering. Just listen, here me out, I really want you, now, Liz, please!, Danny said in a whisper, but containing himself since Liz is hesitant. Call me Ma'am since I'm the head of the training Department now. I need to get of here. I thought we will just talk. I didn't know you want a feel..ed day not a serious talk, okay I'm out. Bye, Liz said angrily and left Danny without a word.

Chris immediately went to an open cubicle an hid there, OMG, Liz, haaaa. Then after peeing quickly he went out and still saw Danny, Assistant Head from the Engineering Department's face red, fixing his tie and pants. Hey!

Hey , my man Danny, what's up?, Chris asked as if nothing happened. Oh well, doing stuff and all, see yah later, Sir!, Danny added angrily. Yup, see you around!, Chris added seriously.

Hey V, you won't believe who I bumped into at the restroom, Chris said while whispering to Veronica who is quietly eating her last portion of strawberry pie. Who?.

Liz, Elizabeth and Danny, they were…you know in the restroom, Chris said while putting his point fingers together. What is that? Veronica asked looking at him strangely. Danny was about to make out with her there but she refused and all, so yeah this is a lovely scoop for Vic, what you think?, Chris added feeling great with acquiring the news from being the first to know it and of all places, in the restroom. How dirty is she? Yasss.

Stop is Chris, it's none of your business and keep your mouth shut. Vic doesn't need to know about it since she's over her totally, you know, Veronica said disappointing Chris. Well, it's worth the try, Vic seems into her still, Chris replied casually. Are you sure it's the same Liz, maybe it's Liz of the Accounting department? Veronica immediately reiterated. She's an ol maid you know and besides I know Elizabeth's voice and I can smell her everywhere she goes, Chris added with his eyes reddening like Joker and his voice a little bit harsh now. You know what, you sounded so creepy, I think I might mistake you as a stalker. Her smile, for God's sakes Chris, what are you a drug sniffing dog?, Veronica now laughing at Chris. Yes and I can only smell her D&G perfume and that's very expensive. It's a rare one.

Who is very rare?, Victory said walking towards her friends. Taking the apple on Chris's plate and munching on it happily. Oh Vic, Chris said now nervous to tell her about what happened with Liz and Danny earlier at the restroom.

Oh, nothing, it's just that I saw Liz and …Da…., Chris was about to spiel the beans about Liz when Veronica interrupted him. Danny, who were having a meeting about the issues on our electric lines since Liz and I needed to complain about our air conditioning units at our offices, yup, she added shutting

Chris' mouth and smiling at Victory. Victory was very suspicious on what Chris said about Liz. But little did he know, she already saw everything on the CCTV cameras which happened in a flip of a switch.

I know and I'm sorry but he is disrespecting one of my heads and that is against the rules of the company. I'm sure you know that clearly since you signed the contract recently, Victory said pointing the fact about their rules in the office. But it's a personal matter Vic and …, Liz halted when Vic moved closer in front of her and crossed her arms signalling that she's ready to listen to her explanation. And….it's a personal matter he and I need to settle. Actually there's nothing to settle anymore since we separated a year ago. He is just there to talk with me, but I didn't want to deal it with him making advances, so I shoved him.

Okay, I believe you. I won't fire him but advise him not to do it again, to you or any of the employees here, or his ass is toast. Got it!, Victory cried calmly and about to turn her back from Liz when she pulled Vic's face and kissed her lips. Victory's eyes got big and pushed Liz away. What are you doing?, god, Liz!, Victory aid so shocked but still tasting Liz's tongue and mouth, vanilla coffee and mint. Maybe you really wanted my kiss and so jealous of Danny, huh!

Liz, you're so dead, wrong, no!, I only did that because what happened is against policy and it's not about you personally, Victory replied trying to make Liz sound crazy.

Oh, okay, then, how about asking me to do something so you'll just let this slide, for me, Vic, please! , My reputation is on the line here! Danny is not going to let this go and he'll fry me through social media, Liz now teary eyed pleading for Victory's understanding. Okay, I will do it because it is the right thing to do yet he'll be receiving a red mark on this and still need to file an explanation letter about the issue. It's just going to be just between you and him. And another thing, I want to see you here later and talk to you about something, Victory added seriously and nodding to her that she can already leave the office.

Liz felt relieved but is now nervous. What can it be that she needed to ask me to stay at her office later?
