"They made out in the pantry. Full tongue."
You know the morning is going well when your office has a new piece of steaming gossip being served with coffee or tea. The piping coffee tastes exceptional when the aroma of the beans surrounds you.
We are seated near the finance department where Sana handles her work affairs, the area is bang opposite the pantry space giving everyone a clear view.
"Who saw them?" She is busy chewing on the piece of rusk biscuit that we heaped on our saucers.
"Yours truly. First, Rakshit went and Tia followed. They tried being discreet, sticking closer to the refrigerator. Her back was on the door, and I had a clear undisturbed view. It made me sick after some point so I went and told them to shoo away."
"You didn't not!"
"Oh, but I did. Tia now looks at me like I drenched her favourite chew toy in chilli sauce and well Rakshit seems embarrassed." I don't have many friends in the office for obvious reasons. I always preferred keeping a low profile, Sana was my first friend while others I only share a very cordial bond with.
She works in finance and so we often keep popping into each other's department to give company. Rakshit and Tia are her colleagues and they all sit on the third floor of the building.
My cubicle is on the fourth floor along with the CEO's cabin and the entire HR department, hence their common love for my messy habits.
I am not dirty, I just don't like cleaning every minute of the day. I keep my desk clear of any dust, but the stacks of paper and scattered pens on the desk help me focus. It makes me feel busy, evoking my urge to work better.
Kabir and the HR don't agree. Obvious reasons.
I have bigger plans for my future. I want to have my start-up, have labored to save money and my trust funds for it. I am working in this industry for a better idea and experience. I am in my middle twenties and have plenty of time to work towards my goal.
Earlier marriage was never in my plan but now I might have that as a tiny hiccup but just one year of my life. After my divorce, I am pretty sure my family will not pester me to remarry. So a good riddance.
"It was a pornographic experience." Sana is still shaken from her encounter.
