I have been trying to hide from
my colleague everyday at work.
Every time he sees me now,
he practically runs to me and asks
for money. It's like, all he can think of, when he looks at me, is money.
He seems to always want some.
Some more.
He never mentions why he
needs money from me all the time!
I, personally, don't like
to give out money to anyone.
Why would I?
Anyway, I have been giving him as little amount as I can manage to give without embarassing myself;
and, I swear, I have tried
making all kinds of excuses.
They just don't work.
He still runs to me everyday and
asks for money.
Sometimes, I think, I should have never let him find out
how I had been
stealing from him.
