Andy and Rumi stood there for minutes, their gaze on each other in a lazy stare off.
"So are you gonna change or ....." Rumi asked, her eyes downcast as she looked at the wet spot on his pants.
Andy sat down slowly, his hands covering the wet spot. "Yes I'm gonna change....." he told her as he leaned into his desk.
He quickly unzipped his pants and tagged them down, he had to take off his shoes to let them slide down completely.
He looked at Rumi again, she was now laying on the plush couch.
Her gaze was now towards the ceiling but Andy felt that she was just pretending but he couldn't prove it yet.
He stood up slowly, making sure not to make a sound, he pulled his pants up slowly, each tug ending with a gaze towards Rumi.
As he pulled him up completely, he looked at Rumi who was still looking up. He gave out a slight cough, alerting her he was done.
"Okay you can look now." He told her as he folded the ruined pair.
Rumi took her time to get up, she made slow movements that made all the muscles and bones in her body crack slightly.
She stretched her back the hardest, arching forward to the point it looked fairly uncomfortable.
"You know, you remind me of the old boss... Mr Richard was his name." Rumi tells him as she finaling stands on her feet.
She moves forward, her feet silent against the carpet.
She stood in front of him, her chest squishing softly against his chest, Andy stepped back but Rumi followed him.
"Ohhh, i remind me of Mr Richard huh, thats interesting. I didn't say he was fired just 2 weeks into the job?" He asked her.
Rumi closed her eyes for a few seconds, her body tensing up slightly. Andy noticed the way she gripped her sleeve tightly before relaxing.
"Yeah the happy-go-lucky part that is, but besides that you two are very different in terms of personality and looks." She told him.
Andy didn't even get a chance to acknowledge her words as Rumi kept talking over him.
"I think he was slightly taller than you, also he was quite the ladiesman, always flirting with anyone that had a skirt or a fatass, heck even the men weren't safe." She added.
Andy looked at the clock ticking on the wall, "07:23am, most company meetings start around 7:30. I still have time to listen." He thought.
"But anyway, let me not disturb you boss man, you have a lot of work to do in a short amount of time."
Rumi told him, she paused to breath out before continuing.
"Also I don't want you to get in trouble with the bosses. Ms Jade can be an asshole but she makes up for it in company discipline and control."
"Thank you Rumi, that really means a lot to me. I hope we'll be working together for a long time." Andy told her, smiling widely.
Rumi just blinked slowly, her face was dull and empty but a slight blush crept onto her cheeks.
"Okay boss man, now get out of here while I deliver all these finished documents to HR, they're gonna have a fun time tonight." She tells him.
Andy nods and walks towards the door, his hand grips the handle and pulls, leaving Rumi in the office.
She plants herself on his chair and looks up at the ceiling, "I wonder how long that smile of his will last?." She asked herself.
She looked at the desk and saw the files and the pair of pants she took off. "Oh right, better take these to a laundry mat." She whispered.
Meanwhile....
Andy moved through the 7th floor with a renewed purpose, Rumi's words had helped him gain a little confidence.
He pushed the elevator button, humming a little song as he waited. The doors opened only to reveal Ashley on the other side.
"Oh Mr Matthews, going up?." She asked him, her tone soft but also harsh.
Andy swallowed hard, he adjusted his already loose tie. "Yeah... Ms Ashley ." He told her as he stepped inside.
The doors closing on both of them.
