Christopher
Back at work and it's been crazy. I'm starting to regret taking those few days off for my birthday because I'm behind on everything. I had so much shit to do I started feeling like I was about to go crazy.
Opening my drawer on the side of me I looked down at this pill bottle that I had.
All I need is one to get me through the day because I feel like I'm about to crack. I popped the top and pulled one out and tossed it in my mouth. I grabbed the bottle of water sitting on my desk and drank down the pill. As soon as it slid down my throat my office door opened and Carlee walked in. Quickly closing the drawer I stood up and walked over to her.
"Hey baby." I kissed her.
"Hey."
"It feel like I haven't seen you all day."
"I know...I was coming to let you know that I sent off those emails and called those companies for you."
"Thank you." I kissed her forehead.
"Did you get everything done in here?"
"Yeah." I lied. "I'm just about finished, I just gotta send a few things off."
"Okay. You up for dinner tonight?"
"I don't know, I might be tired from all this work. I'll let you know later."
"Alright. Well if you need me I'll be in my office."
I nodded and kissed her again. She turned and walked out the door. I sat back down at my desk and tried to start typing but the medicine was starting to kick in now. My eyelids got heavier and the screen started to blur out like always.
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath trying to wake myself back up. I sat up and started typing again. I felt normal for a second but then my eyes got heavy again. I sat back in my seat as that feeling that I used to enjoy so much took over me. Rubbing my eyes and then my hair I sunk down in my seat.
Why did I take this shit?
Next thing I know, I was knocked out.
Carlee
I looked at my watch and it was finally time to get out of here. Those few days off felt like they flew by. I need a two week vacation so that I could go chill on a beach and sip non alcoholic drinks. I packed up all of my things and slid on my coat, grabbed my keys and purse.
Usually Chris meets me but he wasn't here yet. I walked over to his office and knocked but he never responded. I know he hasn't left yet.
I opened the door and this fool was sleep. I rushed over to him and pushed his head but he didn't wake up. So I did it again but harder this time. His eyes slowly opened and he looked up at me then out the window. I'm guessing he's been sleep for a very long time.
"Damn." He said while slowly sitting up straight.
"How long have you been sleep?!"
"I don't know." He tried to stand up but fell back down in his seat. "Shit, my body hurts."
"Are you okay?"
