The door to her office opened with a soft click and Roy, her new secretary, stepped in hesitantly, carrying a steaming cup of tea in his hand. Dressed in a crisp suit, he approached Maria's desk with a mixture of nervousness and determination, bowing deeply he placed the cup before her.
"Madam President," Roy began, his voice slightly trembling, "I brought you a special tea from Brew Heaven. They claim it's the best you'll ever have."
Maria's gaze settled on the cup with a blend of skepticism and irritation. Her eyes narrowed, clearly displeased by the interruption of her coffee routine.
"I drink coffee, not tea," Maria replied coolly.
Roy's face flushed, but he quickly composed himself. "Please, just try it. I assure you, it's worth it."
