actionsnotvoidofmerit asked for a starter! a really long time ago i suck i’m sorry.
Somehow, running the morning
helped prepare her for a day
that was usually at least somewhat...
h e l l - i s h.
Her job could never be easy - she could
never sit in her office and do paperwork
like she was supposed to, or spend
time in the labs like she would like
to. She always ended up getting
dragged to meetings because this was
going wrong and that person screwed up.
This needed a sign off or that
needed an opinion, or that meeting
scheduled for three-thirty was rescheduled to
ten minutes ago.
But having time to ease into her day
and give herself some her-time
helped lighten the load a little.
...Well, that and the fact that her
wine cabinet became her best friend
once her shift was over.
Once she finished her daily routine,
she made her way back to her office, where
she’d quickly plug in her phone before
running to check on her son and change.
...But there was someone waiting in her office.
Frowning and slightly out of breath, she eased
her phone from her pocket and paused her music,
eyes squinting slightly as she immediately
missed her glasses.
“...You’re early, right? I’m not scheduled on
the clock for another hour.”
