Cool On The Exterior, Warm Within
So with a swish of her skirt

she left in a huff that very afternoon. Without even tendering.
Amid the click-clacking of fingers on keyboards, two voices rang out distinctly in the neighbouring department.
Exasperation. Unhappiness.
"It's not that I don't want to do. I only have two hands, you know!"
"Then you show me how you do it. And don't talk back to me like that!"
A muffled reply, then
"You know that I can sack you?"
Restrained anger.
The office became deathly silent.
Heads popped out of their cubicles. Popped back in. Phonecalls were made in whispers, did you just hear that?! Emails were fired rapidly, omg office conflict!
So that very afternoon, she walked away and never came back again.
