12:00 P.M
LUNCH BREAK
I decided to grab a quick bite at the cafe down the street. I then called Ziana to ask if she wanted anything.
---ON A CALL---
Me: Hey Zi.
Ziana: Hey sis. On lunch?
Me: Yep. I am going to the cafe down the street. Do you need something?
Ziana: The regulars, please.
Me: Roger. Anything else?
Ziana: Could you please pass by the shops and buy some hot chocolate?
Me: The powder one?
Ziana: Yes, please.
Me: Okay, I will make sure to buy it. Let me go buy it now.
Ziana: (gasps) During your lunch break?!
Me: Yeah. Why?
Ziana: Don't you eat with your colleagues during lunch?
Me: Like I have friends here.
Ziana: Did you take your introverted personality to the workplace?
Me: It's a part of me. I have always been like this since I was young. Earphones are my comfort object.
Ziana: I must say though, it is good to do that.
Me: You are not being sarcastic right?
Ziana: Not this time. I feel like it's good - pity that people don't value an introverted person to be normal.
Even here at work - it is as if one is mentally abnormal or something.
Me: Yeah. I mean there's nothing wrong with being introverted, just as there's nothing wrong with being single.
Ziana: Ah, the pressure is starting to rise again, am I right?
Me: On a full swing, I will share the full details when I get home later today.
Ziana: Please spill the ENTIRE office tea!
Me: Naughty Ziana! I will. Let me go, I will see you later.
Ziana: Okay sis! See ya later!
This naughty little sister of mine.
Me: Bye.
Ziana: Byee!
---END OF CALL---
After I dropped Ziana's call, I then went into my car and drove to the cafe down the street to place Ziana and I's order. Next, I drove to the Cybric Food Wholesale to buy the hot chocolate that Ziana asked, to which I bought two because who doesn't like anything chocolatey?
I drove back to work, stayed in my car, and scrolled through my phone until I heard a knock on my window.
It was Nathan.
I rolled my window.
Me: Nathan?
Nathan: Liana, hey.
Me: Hey... you need me?
Nathan gestures his hand for me to come out.
Me: You want me to come out of the car?
Nathan: Please come out Liana.
Me: Geez... okay, okay!
I closed the window, went out of the car, and locked it.
