章節 901: Help Not Wanted

Rudy finally emerged back from the office just as everyone else was done clearing the crumbs off their jeans, and for the rest of the afternoon, he was uncharacteristically quiet. 

Michael watched him with his head tucked down the hood of a car for hours. Eventually, it was dusk, and the evening light showed him still tinkering away over there engulfed in the darkest shadows. 

There were still two hours left of Michael's shift, but he had already long cleared all his work for the day. And though he was told, and even encouraged many times over to simply clock out the innumerable instances he was seen loitering about, he usually opted instead to spend his remaining time helping his coworkers clear any remaining tasks at hand. 

After reflecting on all that has happened, and all that he has heard, Michael decided once again to lend another helping hand.
