Nothing is worse than being called to the boss's office. We have been sitting here for minutes, exchanging glances without saying anything else. Today, the boss himself finally cornered I and Natasha.
“The both of you have been avoiding me.” Sam broke the silence finally.
“Her?” “Him?” We said in unison, none of us accepting anything.
“I said, the both of you.” Groaning loudly, Sam facepalmed at our weak attempt at feigning ignorance.
I explained, “Well, I have been not here recently.” Leaning into the chair “With that AI job approaching, we surprisingly have a lot of free time.” Getting called into Sam's office, was starting to give me constant deja vu vibes. It was becoming a routine.
“True, but you were here yesterday and you didn't say anything.” He pointed out blatantly. But of course, we were not going to admit that we were indeed avoiding him.
