"Ms. Reyes you have a message. A Ms. Darkling called; she said the order will be in by Tuesday of next week. Ms. Naomi, Jeffrey called again. He said he would love it if you would return his calls. I told him you were otherwise engaged in other matters and couldn't reach him at this time. He should be calling you back in another week or so."
"Thanks, Mei."
"Wow Teresa, dodging men are we; never thought I'd see the day."
"I didn't say that I didn't, I was just shocked that Ms. I'm-looking-for-love-are-you-that-special-someone did."
"What do you mean? It's not like I ditch every guy that comes my way on the contraire, men just seem to be happy to leave once they finish."
"Uh huh, and you politely showing them the door has nothing to do with it."
"Not at all"
"Right"
We walked into our joint office that took up the entire 28th floor. We had everything we needed up here. But she had her side and I had mine; we didn't have to see each other unless we wanted to.
I mean yeah we were cool and all but that does not mean I gotta stare at the girl all day long. Our office was divided by a wall and a glass door that was all fogged up so you couldn't really see through it and that was fine by me, I liked my privacy any way.
"I'll see you at clock out."
I just waved my hand and went into my part of the building. As soon as I sat down my phone was going off.
"Ms. B's Adult Toys and More this is Ms. Reyes how can I help you today?"
"Come back."
"Excuse me"
"The cemetery, come back I need you. He needs you."
I hung up the phone immediately and called Teresa.
