Boq was working really hard at the library, as always, making sure every book was in the right place. He always used up his breaks doing the household chores he could have done during his work hours. He organized the cash register, cleaned, sorted the books and scrolls, and even read.
His manager was very pleased with it all, perhaps a little too pleased. Boq's work to him was always a job well done. He pulled out the handbook and his employee log to see what to reward him with, but soon realised that Boq had never taken a day off.
He walked up to Boq with a smile. "What a wonderful job you have done, Boq, as always!" he said.
Boq was thrilled. " Why thank you, Sir!" he replied. "Just thought the library could use a little TLC!"
His manager continued smiling. "Well, I thought I would give you a reward, but it seems you haven't taken a day off of work... ever."
Boq smiled "No, Sir. Never!"
"Well, the handbook requires you to take some time off."
Boq knew this day would come, just not this soon. "What?" he frowned.
His manager had never dealt with such a person like Boq. He escorted him to the door. "Enjoy your week off, Boq. Have some fun!"
"But I don't kno-" The door had shut before he could finish. "Well, this is gonna be the worst week ever."
