The rest of the day consisted of all the interns getting a tour of the whole building, they also got to see the offices they will be working from and they also went to the sets of where the company's top shows get filmed. It was an overall chilled day but the real work starts next week when the financial year commences. The interns have all just knocked off and made their way downstairs to the parking lot and to their respective cars (all of them have cars except Fatima).

Rick: hey Fatima do you need a ride?

Fatima: no thanks Rick, my BOYFRIEND will be here to pick me up.

Rick: oh okay *leaves*

Jayla: (chuckles) girl that was rude and uncalled for.

Fatima: (shrugs) I'm just letting him know from jump that I'm not interested! I can't have people thinking I'm sending them wrong messages.

Jayla: yeah okay, so how far is Devon? I can wait with you.

Fatima: you don't have to do that, I'm sure he'll be here soon - I told him what time I get off.

Jayla: no it's cool, I don't mind waiting... so how did you like the first day?

Fatima: it was uhm... eventful I guess.

Jayla: (side eye) you've been acting weird ever since you came back from Mr Taylor's office, I hope you didn't do nothing I wouldn't do.

Fatima: and what exactly wouldn't you do?

Jayla: (laughs) you in my business... yeah don't do that! Anyway, I'm bout to leave because I have to stop and buy some groceries, you sure he's coming right?

Fatima: yes Jayla I know he's coming, he's never let me down! See you tomorrow girl, drive safe.

-Jayla leaves-

Soon enough almost all the cars drive out of the parking lot - theres just a black Porshe left. Fatima is the only person left along with the security guard, she pulls out her phone to call Devon for the umpteenth time but he doesn't answer...

Fatima: (on the phone) Devon where the fuck are you?! Ive been waiting for over 30min, my feet hurt and I'm hungry asf - I swear on my mama you better have a good enough reason for being late!!! *hangs up*

Zac: (behind her) trouble in paradise?

Fatima: (startled) Mr Taylor you scared me! What are you still doing here this late?

Zac: I ought to be asking you that question, you're just an intern - me on the other hand... the boss's work is never done.

Fatima: yes of course. I'm uh... waiting for my boyfriend but I don't think he's coming so I'm just gonna Uber back home.

Zac: or I could give you ride, I don't mind really.

Fatima: (hesitant) no thank you, I can't expect you to do that. Besides don't you think that it might send the wrong message to Ms Lopez?

Zac: Fatima I know you think you witnessed something but there's nothing going on between me and Ms Lopez.

Fatima: witnessed? No sir, I'm 43% blind remember? (chuckles)

Zac: (chuckles) you're mad funny, I like you.

Fatima: that's the 2nd time today you've said that.

Zac: and I'm gonna ask you for the 2nd time if you would life a ride home?

Fatima: you know what, sure let's do it! My Uber app is acting up anyway.

Fatima followed Zac to the black Porsche car, he went to the passenger side and opened the door for her and then helped her in before getting in the driver's seat.
