"Hey Jax!"
"Hey Sar, did you get some sleep?"
"Ha. Barely, I'm surviving on caffeine. No worries though, Michael's back now so I don't have to cover for him."
"Michael?"
"Oh, he works with me."
"Why do you cover for him? He should do his own work. Why is he making you take his shift?"
"Whoa, calm down Jax."
"You can't just let others take advantage of you Sar."
"Okay, Michael is not using me. He's one of the sweetest guys I've ever met and I offered to take his shifts these past couple of weeks so he could spend more time with his family."
"..."
"His grandfather passed away, and he's going through a rough time. I'm trying to help him out a little."
"...People may seem nice but they always have ulterior motives."
"Michael doesn't! He's a sweetheart, he wouldn't hurt me."
"What, so now you like him?"
"What?! Where did you get that from?"
"You keep calling him sweet."
"That's because he is!"
"Really? It's probably just an act to get you to take his shifts."
"Then why did he tell me he felt bad about the shift and then buy me coffee?"
"Why did he buy you coffee?"
"Cause he knows I like it. He wanted to thank me for covering his shifts."
"...he probably just wants to get into your pants, Sar."
"Jaxon!"
"What?!"
"Stop arguing with me!"
"I'm not arguing with you!"
"Yes, you are!"
"No, I'm not!"
"Then what are you doing right now?"
"..."
"Michael has a girlfriend.
And he's like the brother I never had!"
"Oh."
"Yeah, 'oh', you jealous prick! If you're going to be like this all afternoon I'm leaving."
