ishita/ jai
why are you not going for lunch?
no i went
ishita, you're sitting right there at your desk and i can see you
i just have some work to finish. i'll grab an egg roll or something from the place nearby after i'm done
didn't you bring lunch?
do you think i have time to cook in the morning?
you never bring lunch?
i just grab a roll or sandwich. i've made a deal with the uncle running the shop next door. he gives me discounts if i chat with him for some time
that's not healthy at all
who cares?
come in to my room
i have one last thing to finish so kindly save your demands for after, thanks
i have only one pair of hands, if you don't realise
your passive aggressive tone won't work with me
just come in
no
i'm calling you in as a boss. your job is at line
ugh
this is so unfair
asshole
you can't fire for me for this! i want to finish this so it would help you! why won't you let me do it?
i don't care about that. just get the fuck in
easy there, tiger
don't piss me off
too bad i love doing it
ishita
fine!
